MR. ICEBLUE116

 

My name is Brian Freeman and I am the merger. Now you may be asking yourself can he be a little bit more specific? The merger for what? Well , to answer your questions I am the merger between hip-hop and Christianity. Since the creation of hip-hop/rap there has been a constant divide between itself and Christianity. I believe the reason for this is the negative connotation and ora that most hip-hop music is known to have. Now don't get me wrong there are quite a bit of Christian artists that would fit in more of a country, rock or traditional gospel genre, but not many that would be categorized as Christian hip-hop artists. 

 

This is where I come in as the merger because I am the perfect blend between the streets and the church. I am the solution to this divide because I have been a part of both worlds. Areas you would classify as being dangerous I have called home and a lifestyle that you would only see depicted in a gangster movie I have lived. There is an upside to this horror story and that is that I've changed. About seven years ago I found God or better yet he rescued me from the road of destruction. I dedicated my life to Jesus and since  I've been living a righteous and law abiding life. Now I am an associate pastor at my church as well as a Christian hip-hop artists. I create  music that ministers the positive message of the gospel, intertwined with the lingo and sound of the hip hop culture. 

 

I produce, write,record, mix and master my music as well as music for others. I recently released my third studio album LWV3 and I am also working on my third mixtape. I have also done multiple tours in Canada and Jamaica and I am in the process of putting together a nationwide tour that stretches across the south from California to Florida which is known as the Bible Belt. Anyone that has ever worked with me knows that I am what you would call a workaholic. So any new colleagues can expect to work with an ambitious, relentless, perfectionist that goes the extra mile, thinks outside the box, and doesn't stop until the job is done.
