“This former college football star hit a low point in his 20’s with a degenerative injury that kept him from going pro. But things have been looking up for the relatively unknown artist and first time father, with his debut project [With All I Am] landing at #4 on the Billboard Gospel Charts,” the editorial states.

Additonally, Dawson was featured in ASCAP’s (American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers) “On The Come Up” Freshman Class Edition (read article here: http://goo.gl/9T5ZI3) along with singer/songwriter ItsTheDonBaby and recording artist/choregrapher/dancer I Am DLow.

Dawson celebrated a hit debut across multiple Billboard charts in 2015, with his freshman album WITH ALL I AM. The debut project from the Houston native landed at #4* on Billboard’s Top Gospel Albums chart and made an impact in the Top 25 on Billboard’s Top Christian & Gospel Albums chart and across genres on Billboard’s Top Independent Albums chart landing in the Top 50. WITH ALL I AM marked the third highest charting debut from a new gospel solo artist, duo or group last year and spawned the Top 40 radio hit “Not That Easy”. The album also includes a version of “Not That Easy” featuring Dawson’s former roommate/teammate Andrew Hawkins (leading wide-reciever of the NFL’s Cleveland Browns).

WITH ALL I AM is available now in stores and all digital outlets including iTunes, GooglePlay, and AmazonMusic.
