And The Nominees Are: Gospel/R&B

The nominations for the First Annual Platinum Vinyl Awards continues with Gospel and R&B. First a note of explanation. In the Christian Music world Gospel can mean many things, but there are two main meanings. First is Southern Gospel which in the Night Beat Encyclopedia of Music is defined as People who can't sing or dance accompanied by people who can't play music. No, on this Blog, Gospel can refer to only Urban Gospel, the only real gospel music there is. That being said...

The nominees for the First Annual Platinum Vinyl Awards for the category of Best Gospel or R&B Album are:

• The Experience by Vanessa Bell Armstrong
• In Spite of Me by Michelle Bonilla 
• Declare Your Name by the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir
• Get Ready by Forever Jones
• Triumphant by Vashawn Mitchell
• Aaron Sledge (Self Titled)
• Light Up The Dark by The Washington Projects 

Still to be announced are the nominees for Hip Hop & Rap, Modern Worship, Alternative, and Kids Best Album, and much much more. So keep it locked here for exclusive coverage of the First Annual Platinum Vinyl Awards
