Kirk Franklin, Travis Greene, Donnie McClurkin, and Marvin Sapp garnered numerous Top 10 honors on Billboard's 2017 Year-End Gospel Charts, while albums and songs from the label in years past have also remained beloved staples for countless fans throughout 2017.  The late summer and fall new releases from Marvin Sapp and Travis Greene, as well as rising artists The Walls Group and Koryn Hawthorne, also made a splash on Billboard's 2017 Year-End Gospel Charts.
