Minister Spirit was raised on the tough streets of Brooklyn and his life has been filled with many types of hardships. His mom died when he was only 5 years old and his alcoholic father was not the best role model. As he struggled to make sense of life he got in trouble with the law and learned his lesson the hard way - prison! There he was introduced to the Bible and while learning the Scriptures he learned the meaning of life. That’s when he vowed that if he got released early, he would make an album dedicated to praising God. It took many years but he kept his promise with the release of the SPIRITUAL WARFARE album. It is his hope that young adults could relate to the lyrics and that it would shed light into dark places. The music is his gift to those who feel broken and he hopes that it will be a blessing to you.
I fell in love with hip-hop in 1981 when I went to the Bronx and saw the Cold Crush Brothers. I rhyme because of Grand Master Caz.
