Timeka Shaunail Staples is an inspiring gospel artist from St Louis Missouri whose journey into music is deeply rooted in faith purpose and divine calling. Her artistry is not something she chased but something she believes was given to her directly by God. Music became her ministry in 2012 when she stepped fully into her role as a gospel singer and embraced the gift placed inside her.
For Timeka music is more than sound. It is a testimony. She believes her calling as an artist was revealed to her by God and she has been walking in that purpose ever since. Gospel music is at the core of who she is and every song she releases reflects her spiritual foundation strength and unwavering faith.
A talented musician as well as a vocalist Timeka also plays the drums which adds another layer of authenticity to her artistry. Her sound is influenced by some of gospel and soul music’s most powerful voices including Tamela Mann Donald Lawrence and touches of Whitney Houston. Her musical roots run even deeper as she proudly shares a family connection to legendary artist Mavis Staples who is also her cousin. That legacy of soul truth and cultural impact can be felt throughout Timeka’s work.
Her journey has not been easy. Like many artists her path has been filled with ups and downs but she continues to push forward with faith guiding every step. Rather than releasing a full project Timeka has focused on dropping singles allowing each song to stand on its own message. Her music is currently playing on radio stations across multiple platforms and is distributed to over one hundred and fifty sites reaching listeners worldwide.
One of the most memorable moments of her career has been the opportunity to travel with her music. Being able to share her voice faith and message in different places has reinforced her belief that she is walking in her God given purpose.
Beyond music Timeka is also expanding her creative vision through a cartoon series titled Timeka Shaunail and the Family. This project reflects her desire to reach audiences of all ages while continuing to spread positive uplifting messages through storytelling.
With more performances on the way and new creative projects unfolding Timeka Shaunail Staples is continuing to build a powerful legacy rooted in faith family and purpose. Her journey is still unfolding and her voice remains a reminder that when a gift is truly God given it cannot be silenced.
