CRYSTAL AWARDS is inspired to fill the gap created by awards ceremonies which have left only few slots for gospel artistes. Gospel artistes have contributed immensely to uplifting and inspiring lives and the Crystal Awards seeks to create fertile grounds for up and coming gospel artistes to break forth.
“Our goal is to close ranks amongst Christian music groups, choral groups, and Christian Music Journalists for better evolvement of more quality and competitive production to bring the Christian Music Industry at par with accepted world standard.” – Crystal Awards.
