I know I am breaking my own vows here but according to my ex wife, vows just aren't that important. Wesley! Validate your testimony, where can I look up what you've done, I beleive you when you say you sold your soul to the devil as we all probably have at some point and until we accepted Christ our soul was condemned anyway. But I know attorney's, ceo's and business owners that I could probably say the same thing about, selling their souls to get rich. (see "The Devils Advocate") Where have I heard your music? Did you get anywhere?
Sorry I haven't replied until now. I've been busy. My 2 year old son has been sick. Never was allowed by God to even record one track because I was meant to do Christian Hip Hop music. My life fell apart over the 9 months that I had walked with Satan. I lost 2 GOOD jobs, was in a car accident that should've taken my life (but by the grace of God I walked away without even a scratch), went to jail, lost my girl twice, and got eveicted from the apartment I was living in. After I got out of jail, I knew that this was the worst decision I made in my life. I had been nothing, but pounded by the one whom I sold my soul to. I was at my apartment one day and spoke to a friend of mine and decided to attend church. It wasn't long before I was crying out to God for forgiveness of what I had done. In the lust of the flesh I had sold my soul to the one who only wants to steal, kill, and destroy. I struggled for years and in the middle of a backslide I won tickets to a Godsmack and Metallica concert in Roanoke, VA through a local radio station. I went drinking the whole way. We got there on the "party bus" and got into the building. I was having a good time, but in between bands things changed. Tha same voice of Satan that said "I'm going to kill you when I get the chance," was now saying in the most arrogant tone I've ever heard, "Come back to me and lead my army." It hit me that he(Satan) knew that God had called me to lead an army of His people and so he was making a last ditch effort to try to stop me. God was allowing it to take place so I could choose whom I would serve. I looked around at all of the people in this place, thousands of people, and realized that most of them were on the highway to hell. My eyes were finally opened to what life is really about and that's Christ dying for the sins of the world. From that point, until this day, my life has continued to change for the better. I was soon delivered completely from drugs and alcohol, walking towards my destiny in Him ever since. It hasn't always been easy and I haven't always done things right, but He's been with me every step of the way. Now my music glorifies Him and Him alone. I recorded 3 tracks that were put on a mixtape called "Global Takeover Vol. 1". The friend who put it together handed out 150 copies at the Holy Hip Hop Conference in the ATL 3 years ago. I lied dormant after that until about 3 months ago. Now I have enough material to record an album. I'm waiting for the one track that's going to be the anthem for HHH. When that hits me, it's a wrap. Peace and God bless everybody.
