uGospel Announces Next Generation Initiative to Develop Emerging Gospel Media Talent
uGospel is entering a new chapter with the launch of uGospel Next Generation, a new initiative created to identify, develop, and create opportunities for emerging media professionals interested in Gospel music, culture, journalism, podcasting, video production, photography, social media, and digital storytelling.
The announcement comes as the Gospel industry celebrates the 2026 Stellar Gospel Music Awards and the artists, creatives, executives, and media professionals helping move the genre forward.
For uGospel Founder and Publisher Khalif M. Townes, the initiative represents an opportunity to leverage the platform, relationships, experience, and credibility built through uGospel to help prepare others for what comes next.
“Legacy should create access,” said Townes. “uGospel Next Generation is about connecting emerging talent with an established platform, helping them develop their craft, gain real experience, and become prepared to help tell the stories of the next era of Gospel.”
The initiative will seek emerging hosts, interviewers, writers, journalists, podcasters, producers, red carpet correspondents, videographers, photographers, editors, and digital creators.
uGospel is expanding, and the next voice, storyteller, producer, or creative the platform is looking for could be you.
