DA’ T.R.U.T.H. WINS SECOND STELLAR AWARD & FOLLOWS WITH SMASH LIVE PERFORMANCE Print E-mail
New York, NY (January 22, 2009) – Following his big Stellar win in the Rap/Hip Hop category, Cross Movement Records recording artist, Da’ T.R.U.T.H., exploded at the 24th Annual Stellar Awards telecast with a powerful and groundbreaking remixed live performance of his hit single “That Great Day.” (The original track produced by acclaimed producer J.R. for So Hot Productions featured gospel greats Donnie McClurkin and Tye Tribbett and the remix was created by producer Freddy Washington for this event.)

With his electrifying presentation, Da’ T.R.U.T.H. provided a rare rap segment for gospel music’s largest annual ceremony which has broken down barriers for all rap / hip hop artists in the Gospel genre. "We were truly pleased to add Da' T.R.U.T.H. to this year's Stellar line up of performers. His ministry proved to be one of the night's most raved about highlights—by viewers both young and old," said Don Jackson, executive producer of the Stellar Awards. Show director Michael Johnson further stated, "I believe Da' T.R.U.T.H.'s performance will be marked as a watershed moment for his ministry and the overall growing Gospel Hip Hop movement. We look forward to working with him again." Da' T.R.U.T.H. is honored to play this pioneering role and focused more than ever on using his music and teaching platforms to point and draw a dying world to the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Stellar Awards are scheduled to air in national syndication starting this Sunday, January 25th through early March.
