Prepare Before you Record Written By Garry E Shepard Jr.



There are many ways to prepare before you record whether it be reciting your bars or singing praying or reading Gods word.  I have 3 ways in which I prepare before I record:

1. Pray

I pray to make sure self is in check, Rap whether it be main stream or Christian is competitive. Also I want to make sure I'm in the right spirit because you have to be careful who you let inspire you. Also Prayer sets the atmosphere. I can remember a time when I first started to record I got so aggravated because I was rushed by a friend who's independent label I was under. I couldn't even focus. but had I prayed first I wouldn've let that bother me.


2. Practice

I literally practice 4 to 7 times a day, When I'm driving to work and coming from work. Lol the faces I get as Im rapping while driving priceless. I also have a Practice Mic which I use a lot in the mirror. And for days Im going to perform I don't practice my song at all that day I just listen to a recorded version. I do however recite the first line of each verse for memory sake.


3. Take Notes

I take notes on my Note 5 Phone when small ideas come to my head, as a song writer you know that you have a window to how long you can obtain the idea your head before you lose it. I still do it the old skool way writing in notebooks and even using old bars to complete the new ones. So thats it would love to hear how you prepare yourself in the comments. Thank you.

Standing for Truth Written by Garry E Shepard Jr.


We are living in a day and time where the bible continues to fulfill itself.  Sin is put on a pedal-stool, while being a Christian and believing in God and his word is a crime. I'm going to give 3 examples of injustice against Christians.



1. Kim Davis

Last week Kim Davis was jailed for not issuing marriage License to a same-sex couple. Kim explained that doing so would go against her religious belief. So in other words  she didn't want to seem like she's supporting what the word of God forbids, not only that she didn't issue any license do to the fact that the state where she's from Past Same Sex marriage which caused her to stop issuing marriage license. Instead of this same sex couple going to a different clerk they called the police and had her arrested. She sits in jail but here is the best part and this shows that God is on your side, supporters began to rally for Kim Davis singing Hymns. Mike Huckabee also joined in support for Kim Davis. Here you have a woman who worked 27yrs at her Job, only to be put in jail for not issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples. The most upsetting part is when I read about this I saw "Love wins" ??? Rejoicing over a non criminal put in jail because of pride. Christians are targets in this day and age. Yet God still gets the glory. I love how she gave praises to God. I praised along with her.

Branchout your Ministry. Written by Garry E Shepard Jr.

This is for all my Inspiring Artist such as myself, I' m reminded of the scripture  Mark 6:4-6 when Jesus tells us about Ministering where we live.  You would think that since people know who you are you will get mass support, especially it being family and friends. Sometimes makes you wonder why is that. I thought of 3 things,


1. Ministry version of you verses what your family and friends know of you-

Family has been a part of our lives since we can remember. Some family members will support from a distance, while many will be offended at what your Ministry will entail. Some just won't believe that God can use you to do a mighty work. Either because of how you used to be or what they used to know about you. Know that Jesus experienced this first. They where astonished and some were offended because of him and the scripture he read out loud. They knew that Joseph was his earthly father, it was even said that his brothers and sisters were offended.


2. Authority And Power you will Display

Again we go back to man's idea of what your image displays. We as Christians are given power and authority by the Spirit of God through Jesus Christ. Jesus was known in his hometown as the son of a Carpenter. We all hold different occupations, we all have different upbringings. Some of us were well off some were poor. Because man can't discern hearts they don't realize What God has placed in you. God himself told Samuel that the heart is his main focus. God uses the ones that the world counts out the meek and lowly to give Power and Authority. Not to say he can't use those that are well off, but the meek and lowly heart is more open and receptive to Gods desires.

3. You will be taken to higher heights



This Familiar Place Written by Garry E Shepard Jr.

As Minister Faithful is on he remembers the corner store where as a child he would go to play his favorite arcade game street fighter. To his right he sees the Grinder shop where he ate and also played Arcade games in. However he notice the people weren't the same, this section that was part of his golden years was now infested with Drug Addicts and gangs on the corner, No longer can he take a walk down the his old familar street of his. Evangelizng to evryone and speaking against evil he is ignored some of the dealers start yell get off my block!!!!!!!!!! However determined to do the Lord's work he keeps on. All of a sudden the same dealers surround him. He takes one look up in the sky and sends up a silent prayer, and before they can lift a finger the Police come and they began to walk away like nothing happened. The responding Police Officer Promise Tells Minister Faithful he understands what he's trying to do, but you can't do this alone, I'm also a believer and the Lord God lead me to see what was going on here. This street need a revival, it needs the whole body of Christ.
