C.A.T.

(See bottom for church & mission statement)

C.A.T. (Chad Alan Turley) is making his debut to the Holy Hip Hop scene by releasing a full length LP entitled "Cloudy Dreams." Being involved in several secular projects in the past, C.A.T. has broken away from the worldly scene to minister through his music. Trying to reach the "untouchables" of society, C.A.T.'s main goal is to reach a generation that seems harder and harder to reach. Groundbreaking beats and lyrical eloquence are the tools that come together to make this secular sounding Christian LP which appeals to Christians and non Christians alike. The goal of Cloudy Dreams is not only to provide entertainment for Christians but to plant a seed for non Christians.

C.A.T. was born and raised in the small town of Sunnyside, Washington in the Pacific Northwest. Raised in a loving Christian household, C.A.T. was never subjected to hardships such as neglect or abuse. Christ has always had a part in his life but not always a strong part. Falling victim to the evils of the world, C.A.T. found himself caught up in drugs, alcohol and violence throughout his teenage years and into early adulthood. Now, at 27, C.A.T. has started a new life for himself, this time with Jesus in the center. From a teen full of anger to a young man full of love, C.A.T. is ready to take the world by storm and fulfill all the plans God has called him to. "I feel God is calling me to take my negative experiences and turn them into positive messages to our youth."

Cloudy Dreams is 13 tracks of Hip Hop good enough to stand up to the highest standards of in the industry. Produced by Vic Zendez of NB Entertainment and Smooth of popular rap group K2S, the cutting edge beats on this album range from hard hittin hip hop to smooth sounding songs from the heart. C.A.T.'s delivery is on point as he adjusts his styles to fit the tone of each song. This debut album was recorded, engineered and mixed by Smooth of 2 time Dove Award nominated Christian rap group K2S. Smooth also makes guest appearances blessing this album with his lyrical style and smooth flow. With other guest appearances by contemporary artists Mario V. & Terra Nyce, young pop rock artist Terryl Greg, and Gospel rap artist Demon Killa, this LP promises to satisfy the entertainment needs of hip hop and non hip hop fans alike. C.A.T. brings an old school flavor to a new innovative level to deliver a unique debut album. Dealing with issues ranging from drug abuse to abortion and suicide, this hard hitting album will touch even the hardest of hearts. Reaching people as lost as he was is the main mission of this talented artist. Sharing the stage with established rap artists such as Smooth of Metro One Music, ABG of Christsyde Records, Bishop OG Freeze of Crime 2 Christ Records, and the Infamous Te' Luvv of made up mind ministries, C.A.T. already had a following anticipating his first solo project. This marks the beginning of what looks to be a very promising career and life changing ministry. Be on the lookout as C.A.T. turns his cloudy dreams into realistic goals, all done in Jesus' name.

Ministry Statement - This ministry is not only about a love for music, but a calling from God to reach the youth in a way the church may not be able to. I'm not concerned with staying true to the "HIP HOP CULTURE" but rather using the talents God gave me to reach lost souls through music. I believe I'm being called to plant seeds so that the church and ordained ministers can harvest the fields. We're here to be inspiration for Christians and to reach the non Christians alike. Bridging the gap between the Christian and secular world is the long term vision, all done in Jesus' good name.
