AboutCrystal Lewis began singing in public at the age of four when she sang in her father's church. After a few short years, she had her first professional gig after landing a role in the musical, "Hi-Tops." Her first album shortly followed. In 1992, Crystal decided to bring her talents into the business world and formed Metro One Music with her husband, Brian Ray. They signed artists and soon created a reputation for the label as one of originality, giving their artists the freedom to express themselves musically in a way not yet accepted by the Christian industry.
Soon after the label began, Crystal released Remember and joined the cast of Nickelodeon's television program, Roundhouse that same year. Following the recording of Remember, Crystal realized God's desire for her to minister to the Latin community. She recorded the Spanish version of Remember titled Recuerda. It was the first of many Spanish albums she released. In 1996, Crystal recorded her fourth album in Spanish, La Belleza de la Cruz, which won her a Dove Award for Spanish Language Album of the Year in 1998, the first award of its kind. Her following recording, Oro, received the same Dove Award in 1999. The English versions of these two albums, Beauty for Ashes and Gold, have collectively sold nearly 1 million copies to date.
Crystal resides in Southern California with her husband, business partner and producer Brian Ray, and their two children. She continues to pursue her calling of bringing the message of hope, life, peace and love through the Gospel to as many people as possible.
