WHAT HAPPENED TO THE GIDEON CREW?

What can I say? It has been since 2009 that The Gideon Crew released their last album "The Product". The group has gone through some changes and faces that one may have seen in the past are no longer apart of The Gideon Crew. After 3 years of transitioning, development, and continuing to share the gospel through hip-hop music, the Crew is back. With new member Big Jake and founding member E.D. the sound has evolved into what Rooted Records has coined "HIP-HOP WORSHIP".

The story of Gideon is as interesting as the process that The Gideon Crew went through, prior to this new sound. Working diligently in the studio preparing to release a Maxi-Single in the Summer of 2012, already have began thunderous praise inside the Prison walls in Michigan and Illinois. With hooks that will have sinners and believers drawing closer to God and excited about Jesus. The Prophetic Word from the Lord in 2007 when the vision was given that "The Gideon Crew will reach the masses", God didn't specify who "The Gideon Crew" included.

It is with great honor and privilege that God allowed me to be instrumental in the foundation and steering of this ministry. Through Jesus power and favor, the groups debut album, "You Should Have Killed Me" won a Detroit Music Award, and 2nd album "The Product" garnered nominations with the Detroit Music Awards and 1st Round Stellar Award nomination. TGC has performed on major stages and television networks, and performed in several prisons in Michigan & Illinois. STAY TUNED FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER!!...new music coming soon!
