More than likely you’ve already heard Stephanie Dotson’s distinctive powerful vocals and probably didn’t realize it. It may have been on BET in 2003 when she won the 2nd Annual GOSPEL DREAM “American-Idol-Esque” singing competition. She was in Tyler Perry’s hilarious movie Madea’s Family Reunion. Stephanie Dotson was on the big screen doing what she does best — Sing!

In the pivotal family reunion scene, Stephanie Dotson shared the screen with giants Maya Angelou and Cicely Tyson and belted out the Negro Spiritual “Pray On.” It was her emotive voice that drove the scene and as music often does it brought everything together. “I was completely, totally awe-struck,” said Stephanie Dotson of her role in Madea’s Family Reunion. “It was an unbelievable experience to have amazing women like Maya [Angelou] and Cicely Tyson tell me that I had blessed them with my singing … that was really a blessing to me.” Madea creator Tyler Perry knew the moment he heard her voice that she was the one for the part. “Stephanie is truly anointed and amazing,” he said. “Her emotional rendition of ‘Pray On’ was the perfect choice for my movie.”

Stephanie Dotson’s journey actually started three years ago when she first heard about a singing contest at her church. The experience brought her all the way to the finals and to the release of her debut project, “MIRACLES STILL HAPPEN,” which is in stores now! A blend of classic gospel, catchy-dance tracks, pop ballads and worship songs this album is a culmination of Stephanie Dotson’s hard work and determination, that features the stand-out cuts “Give Him Glory,” “The Sun Will Shine After While,” featuring the Bishop Paul S. Morton; “Can’t Nobody,” and “I Do Believe.”
