We had the good fortune of connecting with Antione Minor and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Antione, why did you decide to pursue a creative path?
Freedom of creating reminds me of GODs creativity and the fact that GOD has empowered us with what’s needed to create.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.

What I believe sets GODs Vessel Music apart from others are these two things.

The foundation and inspiration of pairing lyrics to biblical scripture, biblical stories, and or biblical principles.

Secondly the alignment of composing music that encourages people to put faith in GOD, and also encourages people to work towards personal wellness and family wellness.

What I’m most excited about.
I am excited about continuing to build the GODs Vessel Music catalogue. I’m also excited about “Paying it Forward” meaning helping others develop as artist.

How did you get to where you are today professionally.
GOD first and foremost equipping me and secondly embracing that this is a part of my life.

Was it easy?
Easy no, but the grace influences the passion which makes it exciting.

If not, how did you overcome the challenges?

Grace, Passion, and Balance.

What are the lessons you’ve learned along the way.
If money was the reason then how do you sustain through the seasons where the flow of money isn’t as much as you would like.
Purpose alignment used as motivation has been beneficial.

What do you want the world to know about you or your brand and story?

I want everyone to be encouraged towards a relationship with GOD (faith) and for everyone to also be encouraged to work towards personal wellness and family wellness.

Music that encourages Faith in GOD and encourages personal and family wellness.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?

Okay

Recommendations if you’re in the Atlanta area

I would connect with Hookdiggy on music, Silverhook Studios on video, Studio Space Atlanta on a visual studio location.

For food Chick Fil A or my cousin Lance Edmonds for catering or PARLAY Savory Saloon my friend Xavier Fredericks’ restaurant.

Then I would research some fun in the area based on what they like to do.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
