Single parent home
From the age of 6, Spec grew up without a father figure in
his life. Being raised in a single parent home was not easy
for him nor his mother and sister. Though growing up with
cousins that were graffiti artists, uncles that were
breakdancers and DJ's, the culture of hip-hop was always
around.
Crossover
March of 1998 Spec was invited to attend a "christian"
hip-hop concert by LOS-1 (The Strength) that he met while
both were in college. Attending the concert was over 400
people at a place called "Crossover" (surprise). The
concert was Urban D.'s second album release "The
Answers". That night he proclaimed Jesus the Christ as his
Lord.
Accident
Three months later; a car accident involving his cousin,
sister, mother, and grandmother took place. The tragedy took
the life of his grandmother but spared the lives of his
cousin, sister and mother. Confussion entered his life;
questioning God, if this was personal punishment for certain
actions he did in his past. Relief of this thought came from
The Ambassador of (The Cross Movement) who first introduced
to him the story about Job. Since then, Spec has served the
Lord faithfully and continues to do so until he is reunited
with his father in heaven.
