Crystal Nicole Pompey Johnson (born November 10, 1983), also known by her stage name as Cristyle (stylized as Cri$tyle), is an American singer and songwriter. She signed with Jermaine Dupri's So So Def Recordings in a joint venture with EMI in 2007,[2] but parted ways with both labels in favor of Blackground and Interscope Records, through which she released her 2011 debut single, "Pinch Me". Produced by former label boss Dupri, the song failed to chart. Her debut extended play (EP), Masterpiece (2015), was released independently.

Johnson has won two Grammy Awards from seven nominations.
