The Stellar Awards 2010

So the Stellar awards 2010 went down this past weekend in Nashville. Da T.R.U.T.H won Best Rap / Hip Hop album for The Big Picture edging out the long expected winner Lecrae's Rebel. Since late 2009, Da T.R.U.T.H took a break from recording due to what he termed as "moral indescretion in his personal life". Read the whole statement on his personal site. Hezekiah Walker won big as did Mary Mary, who won in every category they were nominated in. Hey, I'm following Mary Mary on tweeter so check the "Artists' menu tab to get the latest tweets from Mary Mary. Actually, you also get any tweets from anyone that mention them. Also check Lecrae's tweets. Here are the complete results - the winner are in red (from gospelflava)
