SUPREME 7 BIOGRAPHY
The Supreme 7
was formed in July of 1995 under the leadership of
Antwione K. Peterson and
Marcus A. Allen. Members
included Demetrius Starling, Hason Johnson, Willis
Harris, Lamont Murphy, Xavier Brand, and
David Moore.
The Supreme 7
attributes there interest in music to their parents and
many groups that paved the way.
In 1999 the Lord took the group in a new
direction. While Antwione Peterson was playing for the
Gospel Keynotes he was led to approach Corey Young and
Kevin Thompson, who at the time were members of the
Fantastic Violinaires. He asked them to join him and the
Supreme 7 to help
them do great work for the Lord. The
Supreme 7 represents
the best of the past and present in gospel music. A
multi-talented group that has remained steadfast.
In 2002 a young man named Stephen Walden, former
musician for James Bolton of the Bolton Brothers joined
the group. Once again God ordered them in a new
direction. But emphasizing every step they made, they
put God first and He elevated them higher and higher.
The Lord has blessed the group recently
with two more young men who are willing to lift up the
name of Jesus.
They are Justine Manning and Chris Bailey.
The Supreme 7
have always kept God as the heart and soul of their life
and music.
The Lord allowed the
Supreme 7 to
have some great times while ministering for Him. They
won numerous awards such as the American Gospel Quartet
award, and the Luther Barnes Classic award. But there
have been some obstacles in their way, and they realize
that there are many more to come. But through Christ,
they can do all things.
The question has been asked on several occasions, why
are you all called the Supreme
7 when there are normally 6 people
performing? Our response to them is God is always with
us wherever we go. He saved us and united us together.
And He will always be the head of our ministry. So we
feel with Him being in charge we are complete. The
number 7 signifies completion, so we believe this name
would be very appropriate.
The Supreme 7
high energy remains, showcasing their songwriting skills
and superb arranging as well as their vocals and
striving to keep it in their future.
The current members include
Mr. Antwione
Peterson, Mr. Corey Young, Mr. Kevin Thompson, Mr.
Steven Walden, Mr. Demetrius Starling, Mr. Justine
Manning, and Mr. Chris Bailey. We are a group of young
men who ask for your prayers that we will be able to
please God, the source from which all blessings flow
throughout the world. We are learning everyday when the
devil tries to attack us to “leave it in the hands of
the Lord”. We know “He has all power in His hands”! |
