MELVIN CRISPELL III RELEASES VISUAL FOR “THE BLESSING”

Charlotte, North Carolina native Melvin Crispell III, was raised surrounded by musical stars. With world-renowned musician Melvin Crispell, Jr. as his father and gospel great Tunesha Crispell as his mother, Melvin Crispell III had musical genius in his bones. Although life hasn’t always been so easy for the Gospel prodigy, Crispell III lost his father at 16; and then his mother 2 years later to cancer. After losing his support system/inspirations, he turned to God and found an unparalleled relationship that led him down an astounding path. Through God and music, Crispell III not only persevered through hard times in his life, but he also shared hope with others to do the same as well. After winning Sunday Best, that is all he wishes to do, use his voice to “lead others to a closer relationship with God and to carry on his family’s legacy while also creating his own.” That is just what he is doing in his latest piece, “The Blessing,” featuring Maranda Curtis.
