Jekalyn Carr Garners Double No. 1’s
Written by Sunny Unachi on 11th February 2019
Jekalyn Carr, multi-award winning Gospel artist, speaker, author, and entrepreneur, is celebrating a rare feat. The talented individual has garnered the No. 1 spot on two national airplay charts simultaneously with the song, “It’s Yours.”
“It’s Yours” has clearly become a favorite among listeners, touching hearts and impacting lives and that is reflected on the charts. Carr hit the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Gospel Airplay chart as well as the MEDIABASE Gospel chart.
Overjoyed and thankful, Jekalyn comments: “I want to thank God for this testimony. I’m grateful to have another number one single off my latest album One Nation Under God.”
Jekalyn’s One Nation Under God project was released in February 2018 and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Gospel Albums chart. In addition, the song “You Will Win” spent 5 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Gospel Airplay chart and Carr garnered a GMA Dove Award for Traditional Album of the Year for One Nation Under God.
She is nominated for five Stellar Awards – Female Vocalist of the Year, Traditional Female Vocalist of the Year, Traditional CD of the Year, Recorded Music Package of the Year and Artist of the Year — along with two nominations at this weekend’s GRAMMY® Awards for Gospel Album of the Year and Gospel Performance/Song of the Year.
