It's Not Over is an album by multiple Grammy and Stellar award winning gospel singer Karen Clark Sheard, released on January 24, 2006. The album peaked at #4 on the Billboard Top Gospel Charts and #124 on the Billboard Top 200.[4] This is Karen Clark Sheard's debut as a solo artist for Word Records, but not her first foray with the label, as she was signed to Word as a member of the Clark Sisters two decades prior to the album's release.[5] Former gospel artist Desmond Pringle was instrumental in signing Sheard to the label.[6] This is the first Sheard album that does not include any guest appearances at all, not even from daughter Kierra "Kiki" Sheard who had appeared on all of Clark-Sheard's previous solo albums to date. However her son, J. Drew Sheard, played drums for all of the live recorded tracks (1-9), as well as producing the closing track.
