     Nineteen year old Flint, MI native, Antwaun Stanley has a praise report:  His debut CD "I Can Do Anything" (Bajada Records) landed at #22 on Billboard magazine's gospel album sales chart. "Teach Me," the first single is gaining momentum at radio.  The video of the same tune  will follow suit with its debut on BET's  "Video Gospel" and various.

      The message of the song revolves around the theme of learning to hear the voice of God and letting that voice guide us to make the right decisions in life. The tune was produced by the PAJAM team and features J. Moss' trademark backing vocals.

      "It's a young style of music but it's worship," Antwaun says of the project. "I'm really giving praise to God, just a young person acknowledging this style of worship.
I think it's sort of a young thing. Worship is a different level; you actually go out there and communicate with God. You don't just go out there and sing."  This insight is influenced by his his grounding at the Straight Gate Church where Bishop Andrew Merritt teaches that worship has transformative power.

      When he's not on the road doing concerts or visiting his mentor Bishop Andrew Merritt, Stanley can be found with his head in the books as he starts his sophomore year as a music student at the University of Michigan.
