By BBN Staff: Belizean gospel artist, Mervin Budram, continues to make a name for himself internationally with his latest achievements: two award nominations for the upcoming Gospel Choice Music Awards in Atlanta, Georgia.

The awards are scheduled to take place on June 26-27, with Budram receiving nominations for both “International Artist of the Year” and “International Song of the Year.”

Budram said the nomination is a nod to the work he has put in over the years to produce quality music and will go a long way in advancing his career. He stressed that, apart from distinguishing himself as an artist both from Belize and from the region, the nomination will serve to help get the opportunity to positively represent Belize on the international stage.

“In 2019, I did a song called ‘Unending Love’ which is the song they are using for this award nomination. It’s really my first attempt at contemporary worship as I am known for the more upbeat type songs,” Budram said.

Keeping to his Belizean and Caribbean roots, Budram produces his gospel music using Punta, Paranda, Soca, and Reggae. Apart from his debut album “Break Free” which released in 2015, Budram also has several singles released which have been played on radio stations internationally.

Notably, his music has been played on a radio station in Africa and one of his singles, “Ovah” which released in January, made the Top 10 list for a radio station in Trinidad the week of its release.
