Las Vegas, NV (March 29, 2019)
Jekalyn Carr—internationally acclaimed and award-winning artist/author/actress/speaker/entrepreneur—garnered 3 Stellar Awards during the ceremony held on Friday, March 29, 2019, in Las Vegas, NV.
The beloved young woman was awarded in the categories of Albertina Walker Female Vocalist of the Year, Traditional Female Vocalist of the Year and Traditional CD of the Year for the project One Nation Under God, and set the arena on fire during her performance of “It’s Yours.”
“First, it was a great honor to be nominated alongside the other amazingly talented and well-deserving ladies,” Jekalyn says. “To win…it was an Absolute honor!! Receiving an award of this caliber, named after the legend herself, Ms. Albertina Walker, is a memory I will always cherish. I did not expect it, therefore, I feel blessed to know how others perceive my ministry. As God continues to grace me to do so, I will continue to carry on that sound of ministry mixed with the traditional feeling that the church loves so much and deliver the evolving sound of today. I grew up on the traditional sound and I can remember how powerful and life-changing it was then. My heritage means a lot to me and I’m grateful to embrace it and to be one of the chosen ones carrying such a mantle.”
Allen Carr (proud father, label president and producer) comments: “I am just elated of her accomplishments and her winning three Stellar Awards this week, shows what will happen if you put in the work and believe. Watching her grow from the beginning stages of her ministry and career, to where she is now, is amazing. This is and continues to be a great year of success for Jekalyn. She is such a humble being and I look forward to more of the great things that will come out of her.”
