Bandwagon, it's not a movement it's a TAKEOVER....

About Me

June 13, 1983, a day that would change the world. On this day a young man was born whom God had a special plan for. He looked like an ordinary child, but on the inside something was different. Before he could even walk, you could find him making drum sets out of his parents pots and pan. By the age of 3 he had his first toy drum set, and by the age of five he was not only playing the drums for his church, but also had confessed Christ as his personal savior. His parents seeing a love of God and music, began to nurture his gifts. At the age of seven he had his first "Grown Up" drum set, and was becoming more and more spiritually grounded. He told his parents he had a dream he would one day become a preacher, they supported him. His parents knew what God was able to do, and they trusted God. He began to grow and so did his love for God and music. Time went on and like all teenagers he hit a few "bumps in the road". Trying to balance living a saved life and be a "normal" teenager was a real learning experience. He knew in his heart what God had called him to do, and never denied it. His parents never stopped praying, and he never stopped believing in the plan God had for his life. In his teen years, he took an interest the keyboard. One day after choir practice the keyboardist of his church began to show him some chords. After learning those and many more, he asked his parents for a keyboard. His love for the keyboard grew, and he was very active in his church. At the age of 19 he became the full time keyboard player for his church. Then at the age of 21, he confessed the call that God had upon his life. Now 23 he is making moves to become the next great gospel producer. Influenced by Kirk Franklin, he desires to show the world that gospel music can be "Bangin" just like secular music. Having started his own record company, and his own production company, he truly believes he can change the face of gospel music. Not worrying about what people say, he continues to make music that can be played in a secular venue, but the lyrics speak nothing but God's word. With catchy hooks and bangin beats, he believes he can be a key in tearing down the kingdom of satan. He believes that through God's word, his music can change lives. The takeover is beginning, tha bandwagon has come to change the world.Tha Booth
