About Me

Preacha-D is an artist solely aimed at preaching the gospel, being an example, and thru christ creating creative thought-provoking music that is both christ-centered and distinctive. One of the founding members of the Production team and christian movement known as District 5ive, Preacha-D loves music, however his main objective is to please God. Born December 10, 1985 Preacha-D, aka Antonio "Derrio" Gardner grew up in the church. he was taught the bible and basic doctrine at an early age however as he reached his teen years his relationship with christ became lukewarm, he began to indulge in secular music, started neglecting Gods word and provision trying to fit in with the world. his friends in the world were quick to remind him he was different, and after many failed attempts to be something, he surrendered to God. he thought surrendering was enough, however he found out God wanted him to delight in him. After discovering God had blessed him with an ability to write creative and thought provoking lyrics along with his beginner yet passable piano skills(lol) he began to write songs with his cuz Jbake, after many a horrible song, he began to hone his craft with the help of his best friends and biggest critics(District 5ive).As His relationship with God became stronger, his skills became more apparent, Therefore he realized that God was the true source of his talent, and since God is a limitless God the possibilities are, well u get the point. So to make a long bio short, Preacha-D is nothing, can do nothing, knows nothing, has nothing,(and raps about nothing) without CHRIST! but through Christ he, well, yeah u got it.
