Biography
The release of God's Anointed Soldiers new album "The Alternative" is finally here! Featured on this project is smash hit "Saints go hard" along with "Walls of Jericho","The Witnesses", and many more.
iaeMagazine.com review by Leslie White for "The Alternative" 3.5 out of 4 stars, "Banging Hip-Hop joints definately gets your attention.
Nice flow and great lyrics. Finally! A Holy Hip-Hop group that really brings it! A lot of artist(who aren't that good to begin with)try Christian music and think it's okay to be lackadaisical, thinking people will still listen to it just because it's Christian music. God's Anointed Soldiers are one of the best at it. Certainly recommend!"
The group consists of "King Dave" , "Uptown" and New artist 21 The King". The music delivered would be described as positive, uplifting lyrics that promote solid biblical teaching with a "Mid-dirty style" and sound, backed by banging beats. Performances have been labeled powerful, energetic and moving.
21 The King, teamed up with G.A.S. in Oct of 2009, has proven to be very fruitful in the music ministry, His youthful style of rapping and singing will take gospel music to a new level! His first releases will be a series of mixtapes for free download and then his highly anticipated CD release "The Bad Guy" and also a collab with G.A.S.
G.A.S has had the priviledge of opening up for several national acts such as Kirk Franklin, Skillet, Tenth Avenue North, Sanctus Real, Mercy Me, Jeremy Camp, Sarah Kelly, and others.
Another avenue of ministering is at several detention centers and correctional facilities where God has allowed the group to share their hearts with individuals in need and this has proven to be a very fruitful area.
