In 2002, Carvin performed on a sold out world tour with the Winans family in front of millions of fans which closed out in Detroit at the Fox Theatre. In October 2007 he was inducted in the Gospel Music Hall of Fame in Nashville Tennessee along with his brothers. On June 18, 2008 Carvin received the President's Merit Award from the Recording Academy in recognition of his extraordinary gifts as a passionate singer, performer, expressive communicator, and pioneer of contemporary gospel music. He has 5 Grammy's and 3 Gold Records, several NAACP Awards and Soul Train Awards after 30 years in the business with minimal success. Even working with such greats as Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Quincy Jones, Whitney Houston, Peabo Bryson, Kenny Loggins, Brian McKnight, Michael McDonald and Anita Baker, just to name a few, Carvin was unable to become a successful solo artist. In 2019, he released his first solo debut album-In The Softest Way which featured album production himself alongside Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. Album singles: "Once In A Lifetime", "A Little Love", and "Misunderstood". The album was a catastrophic flop, with Carvin now driving for Uber in Canada.
