Captivating and anointed to prosper and minister the gospel, this singer, songwriter, arranger, and producer has the God-given skills to appeal to any audience and age group.
Canton Jones was born and raised in Deerfield Beach, Florida. He began singing at the age of five in his church and local quartet group, founded by his father. With the support of his family, Canton expanded his interest from singing to producing at the age of sixteen. He then moved to Atlanta, Georgia where he attended and graduated from Morehouse College. As a member of the Morehouse College Glee Club, he was given the opportunity to sing in the opening ceremonies of the 1996 Olympics, the first gospel concert at the U.S. Pentagon, tour Russia, Poland, Africa, and Denmark, and perform for personalities such as Oprah Winfrey, Fred Hammond, Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, and Billy Taylor.
Canton Jones is the complete package “simply because he can do it all. As a producer, he can create any genre of music from hard core rap to a symphonic, classical piece. As a singer, he has the ears to arrange vocals with plush harmonies and melodic lines. As a songwriter, he formulates story lines that every day people experience. As a vocal coach, he can adequately explain the necessary techniques that a vocalist or rapper would need to apply to their performance.
Conscious of the problems that today’s youth experience, Canton Jones has craftily enticed listeners with the culture of hip-hop, rap, and R&P, while lacing each track with the gospel of Jesus Christ. He has applied the same method of teaching as Jesus Christ by using parables of human existence to explain God’s Word. So, whether someone is stuck in a Traffic Jam or at the end of a stressful day all they want to do is Party Tonight, any person will be able to relate to the message Canton wants to convey.
Crucifixion nor cross was able to conquer the Son of Man. Canton Jones has the drive of Jesus, knowing that the thugs and drug dealers, the poor and the rich, every race, every creed, and every religion needs to hear and accept the Good News in order to receive salvation. The only thing Canton Jones wants to do is be obedient to God, allowing God to use him in order to win back His lost sheep.
