BSACAM’s first annual Gospel Sing-Off competition, Move on Up, was held on June 8th at Monmouth University Anacon Hall. 5 choirs/praise teams from the greater Asbury Park and Newark, New Jersey communities participated in the finals. The winning choir was Dale Cicero & Psalms of Praise from Newark and the runner-up was Encounter Christ GF from Neptune, NJ. Judges included Layonne Holmes, JT Bowen and Tommy McDonnell with a special performance by Alexander Simone and Quintessence who are currently working on a gospel album.
