I was born in the Baton Rouge Louisiana and growing up in the city, I was your average kid. In the late 80's, rap was blowing up at the time and it was everywhere in the culture, so of course I started rapping! At age 17 however my life changed forever!


I was working on a solo album. The solo album was coming to completion and the local release date was October 31, 2003 (Halloween). I had made about 50 copies that I was going to distribute locally and to radio stations. Afterwards, I was going to meet with a friend of mine who had a connection to a record label in town who may have given me a record deal. It was the night before my release, and I was sitting in my bedroom getting my finished C.D.'s packaged up to bring with me to school the next day. All of a sudden, I heard the voice of the Lord. He said, "I have called you to be a christian rapper." I felt like time had stopped, and I was frozen in the words He spoke to me. From the training I received in my church, I knew that when God speaks, you listen and accept what He says! I accepted the call and His will for my life.


I made a vow to the Lord that I no longer would use my talents for gain, fame, or riches. Instead, I vowed that I would use my talents to go out and reach the lost by preaching His word in simplicity through the written lyrics He would give to me. My purpose is to be a light of Christ in a dark world, using my music to deliver and comfort people with the message of Jesus Christ!
