2FIVE THA HOOD REVERAND: Only God Can.....

2Five Tha Hood Reverand

Only God Can.....

© 2003 Giovanni Escaleras (634479576621)

As a youth 2Five brought the streets to life, and now with the help of the spirit brings life to the streets.

notes

2Five is an old school hip-hop artist. As a youth in gang ridden Los Angeles, his choices were limited as far as activities. 2Five decided to flow with the stream of illegal activities and destructive behavior. Always musically inclined, he would routinely enjoy the music of the streets and create from that foundation. 2Five became a successful street dealer of illegal commodities and an expert salesman of controlled goods. The life of a street hustler appeared to be a dead end and it caused him to relocate out of what he was used to. He began to go legitimate in his professional dealings and enjoyed long term success in the world of finance. Without a High School Diploma, 2Five managed to secure a good job, a nice home and begin a family. Past behaviors crept in and brought his world to a screeching halt. In desperation, he reached back to what he knew best, illegal activities. This led to further demise in his life. At the bottom, 2Five reached out to God and found that there was a peace that was long lasting available to him. With his lyrical ability and new found faith, 2Five turned the tables on his own life and began to express the saving Grace that had entered his life. He is a product of the streets, yet no longer a victim of the streets. He hopes to empower the youth that remain in the streets with the knowledge to turn their own lives around.

  • First Time Veteran
    author: Brother Humble

    2Five's first album seems like his last as he spits like a veteran from the word "go." From one lyricist to another it's obvious he takes his craft seriously while preserving the integrity of the message of the cross. Buy many copies and hand one to every daughter and son. Guaranteed their lives will be changed for the fame of Christ's name. Grace and Peace in Jesus - True God. Orale. One.

    author: JONATHAN THE SON OF SAUL (NO JUDAS)

    2FIVE, THE PRODUCT IS DEFINITELY HOT, PRODUCTION AND ALL! I PRAISE GOD FOR YOUR CONVERSION CUZ THE BODY CAN USE YOUR GIFTS. ONE THING YOU MAY WANNA KEEP IN MIND IS THAT AS AN ARTIST, WE DEFINITELY WANNA PRESENT PRODUCT THAT'S EDIFYING TO THE BODY....WHICH MEANS MAYBE A LITTLE MORE "WORD" WILL TAKE CARE OF THE "DAMN" ISSUES. IT'S ONLY 1 WORD, BUT CAN POTENTIALLY KILL YOUR WHOLE MESSAGE. GOD BLESS!

  • author: Dialo

    This CD is tight, u really encouraged me more in the Lord. Keep shining and praise him some more

  • GREATBEATS, GOOD MESSAGE, NO PROFANITY, PLEASE (DAMN)
    author: RFM

    The variety of the beats were great. It was slick. Positive message. Would like to see some more songs next time that lift up the name of Jesus. Did not like usage of the word "Damn" in one song. Not necessary. Be encouraged in your walk with the Lord. Stay in the Word.

  • blessed

  • author: Anna

    i only heard wat was on purevolume but it was great. 2five ur really talented and ur music is real but still close to the hood which shows that ur not fake and that is wat companies r lookin for and if u want a record deal try writing demos to kayne west bc he will really like u and if u get no response keep tryin gods there for u

  • This is High Quality Gospel Rap
    author: God with us

    This album is the one of the best! What makes this album great is that it's tight and he didn't have to use profanity and lewdness to make it intresting. Can't wait to hear more from him!

  • THIS CD IS THA SHIZ'NICK!!!
    author: Mark- PRJibaroPapi69@aol.com

    2Five has DONE IT!!! There's a lot of Christian Rappers out there that have talent but don't have the production or the ability to make some1 from the world feel the meaning of Christ's message. 2Five and his cd has not only done it but has done it with music very pleasing to the ear. Good lookin 2FIVE, this cd is off da meat rack!!! God Bless yo. Mark Bushwick Brooklyn, New York

    Great shit! fun stuff for the whole family!! Goonies pt 2 here we come--Mad nice wit it on some creative Jerry Bruckheimer shit!! To the point!! Thats wut we want right! he brought it early! One

  • Great Album - Tight Flows, Awesome Message...
    author: Holy Culture Radio

    This CD is off the chain. The flows are straight to the point, and meaningful. The heart of the artist can be felt on ever single track, from Lost Angelz to Somehow Someway. I felt there was so much diversity on this album when it came to beat selection. Not only does that artist no how rap to each different track, but he does what many others leave out, and that is harmonizing. This adds a nice touch to every track on the album. If your looking for something deeper than the CRAP thats out on the radio at the present time, tune into WWW.HOLYCULTURERADIO.COM, and listen to 2Five the Hood Reverend... One, Yo 2Five... big ups homie, I got you on the next album! Whoaaaa... Vic- HCR Host

  • Just plain sick!!

  • BANGIN A MUST HAVE
    author: BRO. D REAL

    FLOW LYRICS CONCEPTS HEADBANGERS VIBES HAS IT ALL

  • No Comparison
    author: jory

    This cd is what it is. It can't be compared to any secular or saved album. It is an original. And I honestly appreciate the movement of the cross, other than the crossmovent.

  • author: Dookati

    This cd is off the hook, I want to show you much love bra. I am feeling your flow and beats. Keep spittin!

  • Simple complexity
    author: P.A.C.E

    The songs are simple in format yet bring a timeless message. 2Five is unafraid to bridge the gap between street knowledge and spiritual freedom. That takes guts in these times. His belief must be strong to forgo the lure of secular money for spiritual truth. Keep it up brotha, stay true to the word. P.A.C.E. (Peace and Christ are eternal)
