D. Montrell, the extraordinary recording artist is blasting off into the music industry and setting a mark with his music and ministry. ..His debut album, ..God Can..t Fail.. tells of God..s never ending love while drawing on the influences of today..s urban sounds and mainstream characteristics. Specializing in ..life music,.. D. Montrell is bringing a new flavor to gospel music.
Donavan Montrell Thompson was born on June 27, 1982 and reared in Geismar, LA. He is the second son and third child of Dr. Leroy Thompson, Sr. and Carolyn A. Thompson, pastor and first lady of Word of Life Christian Center located in Darrow, LA. Growing up as a preacher..s son, he was trained at an early age to work in the ministry. The opposite of what some might call ..the Preachers Kid.. stereotype, Donavan never strayed away from the watchful eye of his father and guiding hand of his mother.
He started singing at the age of 13, developing himself by becoming a part of the church choir and experimenting with studio equipment. ..He was called to the ministry at the age of 17 and shortly thereafter began touching the lives of youth with his preaching and singing.
Donavan attended Louisiana State University for a short period of time, before working full-time on staff at Word of Life Christian Center where he currently serves as the director of the music department and assistant youth pastor.
As president of God Ordained Records (..G.O..), D. Montrell is demonstrating that he is a well-rounded artist who knows both sides of the industry; spiritual and business. He writes, records, and produces at God Given Studios, the official recording studio of God Ordained Records. The record label..s logo is ..GO.. which is reflective of ..Go Ye Into All the World and Preach the Gospel to Every Creature... It..s not just his record label; it..s his ministry.
................D. Montrell has gained a lot of his experience by traveling with his father during ministry meetings, where he is sometimes asked to sing before his father ministers. He has traveled to many places, in and out of the United States, gaining a following even before the release of his first CD.
Not only has he ministered out of state, he has also ministered in the city of Baton Rouge and Lafayette and the surrounding areas. ..Most of the time, he ministers with The Proteges, his up-and-coming God Ordained Records group. ..As a minister of the gospel, D. Montrell uses his musical abilities to accompany the Word of God that he teaches and lives. This is D. Montrell.
