About the Artist
Theo Tucker has been singing and performing since the early age of eight. He was known throughout his high school, however, as an excellent writer and a human "beat box", always providing on-the-spot beats and rhythms for the local rappers. It wasn't until he heard the single "I Am", by the Cross Movement, one of gospels' hottest hip-hop artists that God revealed to him that he had a gift for doing this. After rapping over several Cross Movement and Gospel Gangsta songs, he began to write his own material. In May of 1999, he wrote a song called "Who Are You With?" Many loved the song but he never recorded it! When asked why, Theo simply said, "I was never thinking about making CD's or anything like that, I just wanted to rap for God, and hopefully impact someone's life that heard me." Unknowingly to Theo, that's exactly what God had in mind. One of Theo's favorite scriptures is Romans 8:28: "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God,! to them who are the called according to His purpose." And so God began to allow everything to come together for Theo's rap career. Realizing that God put an anointed message within his lyrics, Theo began to actively pursue a record deal. Things were moving slow, but Theo just continued to read his Word, pray, and write. On December 7th, at the Millennium Theatre in Southfield, MI, Theo was blessed with the opportunity to minister to a large crowd during a God's Army concert. Although his spot was only 10 minutes long, it made a lasting impression, and people began to ask about him. Deals began to surface, and on March 4th, 2004, he signed with U.G.M.A.C. Music Group, Inc. (Under God's Management And Control) Many people, inside and outside of the industry, are referring to Theo as "one of the best in game, new or old", and some even consider him" A breath of fresh air, in these difficult and trying times." Bill Moss Jr., a noted musician in the gospel industry and brother of PAJAM super-producer J. Moss, said, "Theo is one of the most creative people I know, an extremely talented artist, that is sure to be a hit within and outside of the gospel industry." When asked about the kind of reaction he wanted towards his album, Theo said this: "I don't care if I get attention or not. I simply want God's message to be heard by as many people as possible, saved or not. I have been given a word that will inspire, deliver, motivate and restore, that will bring families back together, that will touch the heart of the pimp, the prostitute, the abusive husband the broken down woman or man, all situations. I know that once this album is released, people both young and old, will be drawn to it's sincerity and it's genuineness, as well as it's only purpose, which is to lift up the name of Jesus and get people to know that God loves them, no matter what."
