On behalf of both me and the MNRK MUSIC GROUP brand at large, I also celebrate the nominations that our artists received from both the support of industry influencers and their fanbase. To see a variety of those nominated from our roster, including trailblazers and disrupters like Smokie Norful, James Fortune, Todd Dulaney, and newcomer Bishop S.Y Younger, is encouraging that the gospel music genre is here to stay.”
