Crystal Awards 2015: And The Nominees Are…

 

crystal-awards-2015-nomineesThe Crystal Awards Nomination Committee tonight unveiled the final list of nominees for the 2015 edition of the annual awards at a nomination party that had several artistes and media practitioners present at Ivory Health Club, Allen Avenue, Ikeja. The 2015 Awards has been themed “Third Year Of Inspiration”.

The Crystal Awards is an annual ceremony honoring excellence in the gospel music industry. Interestingly, this year, there would be no voting, as the winners of all 25 categories will be selected by the committee based on the agreed criteria. The major criteria for nominations this year is the release date of the works, which MUST be between January 2014 and January 2015.

A new category has also been added to the 24 categories of last year’s list. This is the “Best Online Radio” category.

Among some of the big nominees include Onos with 7 nominations, Glowreeyah Braimah (5), Frank Edwards (4) and Limoblaze.
