Nassau, Bahamas –
“Step FWD,” a faith in action Christian movement that has a UK Top 10 Christian
Music Chart has added Bahamian, Keith L. Rolle of KLR Management Group, to
their international panel of judges.
With a focus to
"Further inspire those with a passion for God and music, and bring light
to society, using a medium people can relate to," Step FWD recently welcomed
Keith L. Rolle to their ranks, to assist as a judge for their Top 10 Christian
Chart that rotates hits every month.
"We congratulate
Keith on the work he has done through The Caribbean Gospel Music Marlin Awards,
KLR Management [Group] and other initiatives, and his efforts to support and
empower others in the Caribbean music scene. Because of his experience and
vision, we wanted to work with him," said Dennis O’Neil, Step FWD’s
Founder and Operations Manager.
"The Step FWD UK
Top 10 Christian Chart is a very cool combination of consumer and industry
interactivity," said Keith L. Rolle. "I've always been a fan of the
diversity of UK Christian music, so the prospect of discovering new music, new
artists and helping to build new bridges between nations, gives me great pride
to serve and assist Dennis O’Neil.”
Step FWD UK’s unique
monthly online music chart began in March 2014, and has been breathing new life
into the UK Christian scene. By scouring popular online music and video websites
such as YouTube and SoundCloud, new and relatively unknown UK artists now have
the opportunity for their music to be listened to alongside more recognized
industry professionals. Besides judges, the public and music industry
professionals choose favorite artists.
"There are
currently over 90 judges from all across the UK and overseas," explained O’Neil.
"All music released in the respective month is sent to the judges, and
published on our website for online voting worldwide. This way the judges and
the public weigh in fifty-fifty to create the UK Top 10 Christian Chart."
UK Gospel artist,
Lyrical Soldier was also enthusiastic. “I think it’s a brilliant idea. Here in
the UK, we are trying to build up the gospel industry and it’s a long time
coming to plug in and offer a platform for artists like myself, to showcase
what our music is doing!”
By facilitating
artistic growth and development, while recognizing passionate performer’s
ability to uplift and minister, Step FWD is proving itself to be less about
competition and more about providing global showcase opportunities.
"Development,
management and distribution have always been the KLR mandate," said Rolle.
"So, wherever we feel called to meet a need with an opportunity, we will
do our utmost to support."
