I just wanna take you on a journey from how I got to where I am now. It's almost 2011 and I'm working on my fourth album. But, this show is a part of story. This was about 3 or 4 years ago. They say you can take a person out of the hood but you can't take the hood out of a person.lol It's nothing like being able to be yourself without feeling judged....especially on stage. You do have to learn how to conduct yourself and play the game in certain environments though. You have to turn on that corporate face some places and some places you can be you. There is a saying that says go where you are celebrated and not where you are tolerated. I was celebrated in the Holy Hip Hop community and I really appreciate it. Holy Hip Hop is not very popular when it comes to "gospel." Some old heads and some young heads just weren't feeling it and still don't. Sometimes you can't go where the path may lead, you have to go where there is no path and leave a trail. That's what they did with the Holy Hip Hop Genre. So the Holy Hip Hop fans showed me a lot of love. They have the Holy Hip Hop Awards in ATL every January. I had been there twice but God blessed me to be able to win a Holy Hip Hop Award and I performed that day as well.
Check out one of my fav memories performing at the Holy Hip Hop Awards here.
