About the Artist
I am a singer-songwriter that pays no heed to genres when I express the music in my soul. Hence, like me, my music does not know where it belongs. I thought that I was an R&B artist but since I've been here I have my doubts. I don't know where I belong or if there is even a place for me. I've been betrayed & hurt so many times. But I have to keep on trying to keep from dying, having faith that one day God's mercy will open the right door for even me.

http://www.crystalcartier.comSorry it needs updating. But I’m working on it. (smile) I’ve made most of my album available free to my Black Planet family. The + 2 on Love Story Act One are gospel tunes “Stand By Me” & “Teach Me How to Love” are my prayers. I’ve been thru the storm and with the help of God I survived. Now I am working on a new Gospel CD because I've learned the hard way that only what we do for God will last. I would love to work with any of the gifted artists here. I have written enuf songs to be able to record several different albums for the rest of my life. I'd love to share &/or gig with YOU! Plz do not hesitate to contact me.
