(Hebraic Roots Christian). I have a more personal, historical and scientific approach to issues of faith and religion that engages a broad audience. I also enjoy being challenged to write content outside of my normal comfort zone from different and opposing perspectives. Thus the title para-DOX parABLEs, stories and content about things I’m passionate and interested in that may be challenging at times, fun and interesting at other times.I am an Experienced Writer who has had the opportunity to write for Technorati, BlogCritics, Gather, Dasouth, Rapzilla, His Image Magazine, RealityRap.com, Marital Bliss, The Message Mag, Holy Culture, Just para-DOX, Illspot, para-DOX parABLEs, JAG’D Edge Media, Complex Melodies, 3L Promo, Triple H Mixtapes, Dallas-Fort Worth Holy Hip Hop Alliance, Houston Holy Hip Hop Achievement Awards, All Eyes On Me Achievement Awards, C.A.R.M, Covenant Church, Revival Times, Revolution Youth Church, Family Fellowship Church, Sachse Assembly, and SoulFire Ministries.
Brief Biography: I’m a dedicated Husband and Father, as well as being a Writer for RapZilla, DaSouth, The Message Mag, Marital Bliss & para-DOX parABLEss. I’m a Graphic Artist, Rapper/Hip Hop Artist, Social Justice Activist (Right-Just Rap Foundation For Social Justice), Photographer (Scenic-Nature), Performer/Actor, Martial Artist, Motivational Speaker, Poet, Promoter, Songwriter, and Artist/Illustrator. I am a very purpose driven individual who lives to make an impact with my life, message, and musical content. I picked up the nickname AddLibbz for my ability to flow on any topic and ad-lib of any comment someone makes in freestyle rhyme. I have made mix tapes to put out to use as evangelistic tools and have put out mix tapes that have been listened to over 110,000 people under the DJ alias DJ XDC through Triple H Mixtapes. I started making mixtapes (when they where still actually tapes) to help kids off the streets of Deep Valley, Oceanside switch from hardcore secular hip hop to positive gospel rap, while bringing them to church on the church bus. I saw a passion and need for positive music that effects kids from the streets for positive social change. I’ve been in ministry for over ten years. Having been on staff at Family Fellowship working with Troubled Youth, Mentoring Troubled Teens, Leading a Small Group and Intercessory Prayer Leader along with participating in street evangelism and community Drama outreaches, At SASCHE AOG I was a Home Bible Study Leader, Young Men’s Leader and involved in Chi Alpha Campus Ministry to UTD. At Covenant Church I ministered as a Life Team Host. I have also participated five Assemblies Of God AIM Short Term Mission Trips to Mexico and also participated in Two Month MAPS Missionary Trip to Western Europe along with starting the Right-Just Rap Foundation For Social Justice to help those effected by social injustice with our first project emphasizing the need to help those suffering genocide in Africa, namely in the Darfur region of Sudan. I’ve had a few brushes with fame and success, in High School I performed on an MTV spring show, was interviewed by the local news, I later traveled Western Europe with a performance troop performing a play before many audiences, placed second in a televised battle of the bands on cable TV, and performed in clubs, coffee shops, churches and youth detention facilities. My mission is to represent Christ to the masses through the Hip-Hop Culture, concerts and music outreaches utilizing Parables, Proverbs, Poems and Psalms to impart the transformational message found in Yeshua. para-DOX (of Secta 7) is a diverse artist with a broadband of musical influences who has passion for street ministry and impacting Hip Hop culture combining Hip Hop driven Praise toward Adonay with Socially Conscious Lyrics toward those affected my life’s trials.
