DJ Official ft. Lecrae, Flame – Show Off
DJ Official (of Cross Movement) ft. Lecrae, Flame – “Show Off”. The first single off DJ Official’s cd “EnterMission” coming out December 26 from Reach Records. Featuring over 20 artists from around the globe.
Album Bio:
In the early stages of Hip Hop, the mission of the Disc Jockey (DJ) was to keep the crowd hype and engaged. He would scratch multiple tracks to rouse the audience’s excitement. The DJ and the Master of Ceremonies (MC) worked hand in hand to keep the party going. Their sole purpose was to boast on their skills and swagger. They made a wonderful team.
Hip-hop has evolved since then and the DJ’s role is not as prevalent as it once was. He is now overshadowed by the ever-charismatic Emcee. However, what happens when you reunite that once successful team of the musical aficionado and the charismatic wordsmith? You get DJ Official’s EnterMission.
24 artists, 18 tracks, one DJ, one mission! The challenge is to carry out the important assignment of the Great Commission (Matt 28:19) and the Great Commandment (Luke 10:27). Build the Church, reach the lost, and exalt the King. On EnterMission, this team serves a much greater purpose than to keep a party hype or to stroke the egos of insecure artist.
After producing for over 10 years and serving as traveling deejay, Official finally has the opportunity to reveal the dynamic of his skill-set on one project. The sonic appeal will range from Hip Hop to Drum & Bass to Reggae to R&B. EnterMission features over 20 artists such as Lecrae, Flame, Trip Lee, JR, Tedashii, Sho Baraka and many others. Every single track on EnterMission is produced by DJ Official.
This album will excite the Hip Hop pundit, while also awakening a sleeping interest in all musical novices. The single “Show Off” featuring Lecrae and Flame, which encourages all believers to show off GOD’s glory to the world, brings a commercial thump to an album surrounded by diversity. “Chisel Me” featuring Thisl, K-Drama, Json and Tedashii will not disappoint those desiring the Southern grime. Bringing the album full circle is the Rock/Drum&Bass track “Chaos” and reggae song, “Fallen”.
DJ Official gives us all a look at what it means to be following God as a people on a mission that need to reflect his grace and love to the world.
What journey are you on? Join DJ Official and Enter the Mission.
