Miami, Florida-born artist Oscar grew up in a Hispanic community raised by his mother and father.

Throughout his life Oscar was considered to be a non-practicing Catholic who would sometimes attend mass. Despite thinking he had a good relationship with God; he didn’t know anything about Jesus.

When Oscar was 16 years old, his friends went to go watch the most popular movie at the time, “Passion of the Christ” by Mel Gibson. After watching the Christ’s suffering, Oscar kept asking himself, “Why did they beat him like that? WHAT DID HE DO WRONG?” A few days later in his living room, Oscar came across the book titled “The Gospel of John.” As he flipped through each page he started to understand why Jesus suffered on the cross.

That was the start of God’s work in his heart. Over the years, Oscar discovered a writing talent, which developed into him becoming a Christian rapper. As he continued to work on his craft, he decided to study theology. After graduating, he went to New York City and became a theology teacher.

Paul was raised in a Christian household; however, it was at the age of 16 that he made the very personal decision to surrender his life to Christ and vowed to use his to bring glory to God.

The childhood group remained a fond memory and a foundation as Paul continued to pursue music on his own while attending college.

Hailing from Baltimore, Maryland, B-doe, Brandon Thomas is an artist who started creating his own hip hop music at 12 and switched his subject matter to reflect a more biblical worldview at 16, B-doe has been growing in his faith, serving in his local congregation, and developing as a man of integrity ever since.

Now 24 years old, B-doe’s passion is to preach repentance through the rap medium to all who will listen in his native city and beyond. He says “ … in Baltimore we’re used to murders on the news” and that in the local slang, a common response of resignation to this incessant crime is “that’s how it be though.” Local articulation of the last two quoted words is phonetically “b-doe,” hence how Brandon acquired his stage name. To him, it displays mankind’s lack of sensitivity to sin. What this young artist is voicing, though, is a cry to increase awareness of sin, reject it, and turn to the Most High. B-doe intends to spend his career in hip-hop doing just that.
