Crabb is US top gospel artiste
ATLANTA, USA (AP) — Jason Crabb might not have won all of the awards he was nominated under, but he certainly came away with the two most prominent categories for a male artiste.
Crabb went home with artiste and male vocalist of the year awards Thursday night. The 43rd Dove Awards show for Christian and gospel music will air on April 24 for GMC, formerly the Gospel Music Channel. The awards show was held at the Fox Theatre in Atlanta for the second straight year.
“It just blows my mind,” said Crabb, who entered the awards with eight nominations. “It hasn’t sunk in just yet. I’m proud to be in the family of God, and proud to be his kid. I can’t believe it. I want to challenge other people and other kids this: Go after your dreams, pursue them. God is behind you.”
Crabb said after winning the awards, the pressure is on to produce more quality songs.
