(ATLANTA, GA) – May 23, 2025 — Gospel artist and former American Idol finalist DeWayne Crocker Jr. has released the brand-new buzz worthy single, “You're With Me,” a soul-stirring anthem of faith and divine presence. Known for his powerful vocals and heartfelt performances, Crocker continues to inspire listeners with his message of hope and spiritual resilience.

“You're With Me” blends contemporary gospel with rich, emotive melodies, reflecting Crocker's deep-rooted faith and commitment to sharing God's love through music. The single is now available on all major streaming platforms.

Crocker shares, "You’re With Me started as a spontaneous worship moment at Transformation Church back in 2022. I was in a season of waiting and wrestling with purpose, identity, and silence. I wasn’t trying to write a song; I was just surviving in God’s presence. What came out was a simple but powerful reminder: even when life feels unclear, we’re never alone. This track is a declaration for anyone who’s ever questioned if God was still near."

DeWayne Crocker Jr. gained national recognition as a contestant on American Idol Season 18, where his performances captivated audiences and judges alike.
