“I love the good message of ‘My Portion,’” said Carr. “This song was written so that people can understand what is rightfully theirs and how they must embrace this place. We often don’t understand the true word of God over our lives, and with this song I wanted to remind us that God has already spoken His promises to every person.”

“‘My Portion’ is the perfect song for the times in which each one of us are living. This song is powerful, uplifting as well as encouraging and will touch a chord with every listener,” said Paul Wright of WayNorth Music. “We are beyond excited to launch the WayNorth Music label with the dynamic artistry of Jekalyn Carr on her upcoming single release!”

Over the summer, Carr continued to expand her successful brand. Following her historic induction into the Women’s Songwriters Hall of Fame in Washington DC., Carr launched her beauty brand JEKALYN BEAUTY with a debut fragrance, ‘Jekalyn For Her’ which sold out online in less than a week. Jekalyn was also the co-host of the 36th Annual Stellar Awards which aired earlier this month on BET, garnered excellent ratings for the Network, and generated over a 100% increase in viewership compared to last year’s show. She continues to host her nationally syndicated radio show “The Jekalyn Carr Show.”
