The 25th anniversary of the Stellar Awards was a night rooted in history and celebrating traditions.
The gospel music awards show looked back to its humble beginnings, honoring Gospel music’s legends, and celebrated those with longevity in the business – overwhelmingly awarding music industry veterans with the coveted awards.
Hezekiah Walker and Love Fellowship were the night’s biggest winners, taking home five golden flame statues, including Artist of the Year and Choir of the Year for Souled Out. Mary Mary, another fan favorite, brought home four awards, including Song of the Year for “God in Me” and Group Duo of the Year.

You are saved, but you still like hip hop. You enjoy the crisp percussion – familiar and stirring, enticing you to move with the beat. Thunderous bass feels good as it vibrates the room and your seat. You listen for fresh mixes and samples; you enjoy the clever rapping of the emcee.
Check the Billboard.com hip hop charts, and you will find the likes of Kid Cudi, Boosie, and Eminem representing the cutting edge of hip hop, all produced with captivating, irresistible tracks, all impeccably mastered. And they all drop profanity bombs like acid rain.

"I don’t like to put myself in a box," she says about her decision to maintain a dual musical identity.
