Street Certified Delivers a Special Gift for the Holidays with 'The Crew'!
Source FiveTwenty Collective:
Colorado Springs, CO – “So, then, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with the saints, and members of God’s household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the cornerstone. In him the whole building, being put together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. In him you are also being built together for God’s dwelling in the Spirit.” [Ephesians 2:19-22]
In hip-hop, it is easy to get overlooked. The market is saturated with artists who drop countless releases every week. However, when it comes to the Christian family, no one remains an outsider. Christ gives us our purpose and we all do the work together. It is not about the individual, we are part of The Crew.
“We’ve built a history, we’ve got them family ties.” – Illustrate
Street Certified packs a plethora of skills into 9 tracks that introduce listeners to The Crew.
With multiple combined years of ministry as part of G-L.I.F.E. Outreach, Street Certified is a collective of urban artists with a shared mission, to share the gospel of Jesus Christ through their music. With roots that trace back to the 1990s, Street Certified goes to work with abilities cultivated over decades of on-the-job training. That experience is showcased in this latest project.
The Crew releases across digital streaming platforms on December 13, 2024, and features Street Certified members D-Ro, Illustrate, MVP, Mi Gente Crew, Imagery Beats, Kim Seaborn, 5elect, Too Kool, and Ginny. With a variety of soundscapes throughout the project, the foundation of The Crew is built on classic hip-hop boom-bap tracks.
This project is a must-have for fans of golden-era rap. The Crew is available for purchase, now, via Street Certified’s Bandcamp page… just in time for the Christmas holiday. Why not surprise your favorite hip-hop head with this gift, and go ahead and treat yourself while you’re at it? We won’t tell!
Be sure to add your favorite records from the album to your playlist on your music streaming service of choice!
