“It’s Yours,” which cracked Billboard Gospel Airplay chart Top 5 at the top of this year became Jekalyn’s 3rd career Billboard #1 song at gospel radio (February 2019) maintaining that position for 9 weeks. It follows 2018’s GRAMMY® nominated song “You Will Win,” which spent six weeks at #1 (Feb. 2018). Both songs are featured on Jekalyn’s fourth live independent project and GRAMMY® nominated album One Nation Under God (Lunjeal). Carr’s first Billboard No.1 song and GRAMMY® nominated was in 2016 with “You’re Bigger” (four weeks) from her acclaimed The Life Project (Lunjeal/eOne).
Additionally, Jekalyn Carr is celebrating her fourth career GRAMMY® nomination. She is nominated for Best Gospel Performance / Song as a featured artist on the song “I See The Light” with Travis Greene. The 62nd Annual GRAMMY® Awards will air live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Sunday, January 26, 2020, on CBS. Earlier this year in March, Jekalyn won three Stellar Gospel Music Awards for Albertina Walker Female Vocalist of the Year, Traditional Female Vocalist of the Year and Traditional Album of the Year (One Nation Under God). She’s made high profile appearances performing on The 34th Annual Stellar Awards, BET’s Breast Cancer Music Special, The 50th Annual GMA Dove Awards, and The Black Music Honors to name a few.
