We'd like to introduce you to this beautiful song by Pipco Music Family feat. Rachel Oliver-Cobbin, "Thank You For The Love", that is a tribute to the essential workers during Covid.
“Thank You For The Love”
A Beautiful Soulful Anthem for Essential Workers
After a year where emotions ran as high as fevers, who better to encapsulate that raw sentiment than two legends of Pop and Soul music: Grammy winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Merald "Bubba" W. Knight Jr, member of Gladys Knight and The Pips and Rachel Oliver-Cobbin, former Miss Black America and vocalist for the classic Billboard Hot 100 topping band Atlantic Starr.
The “Thank You For The Love" song was written by Merald W. Knight Jr. and produced by Joe Pigee. The song was born out of a deep desire to give back to the incredible dedication we have witnessed from front line workers all over the world. It’s hard for many of us to find the words that can do justice to the gratitude we all feel, that’s why we leave it to the experts. Rachel Oliver-Cobbin’s rich voice, bathed in expressive melancholy rises like a phoenix out of a tender bed of emotive piano keys. The lyrics are humble, graceful, and layered with blessings. When Rachel says the opening line, she speaks for all global citizens: “The voice of the people says: thank you for the love.”
Another line that really hits home is: “People’s medal of honor, we give to you”. A heartfelt appreciation for the courage of those serving on the frontlines during the pandemic is just what our international community needs right now. This song says exactly what we’re all thinking, it’s the ultimate tribute to those heroes risking their lives every day to ensure we have care, supplies and services we need.
Merald Woodrow "Bubba" Knight, Jr. is a legendary veteran Pop and Soul singer as well as a talented businessman, best known as one of the founding members of Gladys Knight & The Pips. The older brother of lead singer Gladys Knight, Bubba Knight served as the leader of the family group. He’s a multiple Grammy Award winner and was inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.
Rachel Oliver-Cobbin is a singer, actress, beauty queen and entrepreneur with 25 years of experience in the entertainment industry.

The overall goal of the “Thank You For The Love” campaign is unity through love. The essential workers showed that love to us and our artists and musicians know that truthfully the only way we heal is to give that love back. The pandemic has given all of humanity an incredible opportunity to come together as a world family, let this song lead the way and open your heart with sincere gratitude and respect for one another.
