Susan Kindle Worship breaks record with seven Indie Music Channel Awards win

Nigerian gospel music minister and worship leader Susan Kindle Worship, also known as Susan Agbabi, has won seven awards at the Indie Music Channel Awards held in Hollywood, California. The multiple-award feat marks a significant milestone in the singer and songwriter’s career, earning international recognition for her work as a Christian contemporary artist, recording artiste and worship minister. Susan was recognised in seven categories: Best Christian Contemporary, Best Christian Song, Best Christian Songwriter, Best Artist, Best Songwriter, Best Recording and Best Song.

The awards cut across songwriting, recording and artistic performance, underscoring the breadth of her work within the Christian contemporary music space. Her recognition as Best Christian Songwriter and Best Songwriter highlights her songwriting, while the Best Recording and Best Song awards acknowledge her recorded works.

She also received honours for Best Christian Contemporary and Best Christian Song, alongside the overall Best Artist award. The Hollywood recognition is a major milestone for the Nigerian worship minister, whose music is rooted in Christian faith and worship. It also adds to the growing international visibility of Nigerian gospel and Christian contemporary music. Nigerian gospel artistes have increasingly attracted audiences outside the country through streaming platforms, social media, digital distribution, international collaborations and live performances.

For Susan, the seven awards represent recognition not only of her music but also of her work as a songwriter and worship minister, as she continues to build an international audience for her faith-based music. The achievement places her among Nigerian independent artistes gaining recognition beyond the country and marks a new chapter in her musical journey.
