Kelontae said, “I’m beyond grateful to call HOHATL my new family ‼ Thank you pastor @edeweysmithfor your sensitivity to the spirit and the voice of God.”

The 19-year-old was raised in the church and always wanted to sing, but new secular music wasn’t for him. Kelontae is up for several Stellar Gospel Music Awards and we can’t wait to see how this young man soars in success.
