Sunday Best’s First Gospel Music Auditions in Nigeria A Big Success

BET marked its one-year celebration on Dstv (the digital satellite television platform on which BET is seen in Africa) with a unique opportunity.

There was an open call to the most talented gospel music singers in Nigeria to audition for a chance to be on BET’s hit competition series, Sunday Best.

The country of Nigeria enthusiastically answered the call as more than 1,000 hopefuls showed up to the Eko Hotel in Lagos, Nigeria to audition.

Gospel artist Kirk Franklin was joined by guest  judges gospel music artists Donnie McClurkin, Kim Burrell and British-Nigerian gospel music artist Muyiwa Olarewaju. The guest judges will choose who will travel to the United States to compete on the third season of Sunday Best.

U.S. audition cities will be announced soon. Read more about Sunday Best in Nigeria at The Gospel According to Torrence. You can also see some great pictures there of the Sunday Best hopefuls.

This is all so much fun! I’m looking forward to the new season of Sunday Best.
