Joyous Celebration Explains Why They Withdrew Their Metro FM Music Awards Nomination

Award-winning gospel group has recently revealed the main reason as to why they have withdrawn their nomination from this year’s Metro FM music awards. The gospel group was nominated for the Best Urban Gospel Album along with the likes of Dr Tumi and Lebo Sekgobela to name but a few.

The group claimed in a statement that they were accidentally nominated and they apparently want to give new talent a chance to also shine. “Joyous Celebration feel that the gospel genre would be better served by passing the baton on to the new and exciting emerging gospel acts out of South Africa currently” reads the statement made by the gospel group

They went on to say that on the night of the awards, they will be out in Lesotho doing what they do best. Performing of course!. The awards are expected to go on as usual because the voting lines have already closed. However, this matter will not in any way affect the show’s preparations.
