| Releases: | [What The World Needs Now] [The Incredible HudRock EP] | | Info: | Tico Hudson (Atlanta, Georgia) also known as Khul Rhema,
from the disbanded crew Ziklag Boyz, released his first EP
The Incredible HudRock in 2006.
EP
This first solo recording after the Ziklag's disbandment in
2005 deals with betrayal and his own "self-destructive"
habits.
Sins
The EP might be a coming to terms with the discontinuation
of the Ziklag Boyz. Tico stated in the press release: "I
want to first of all apologize personally to all of you, as
I feel that I have let you down in that I fell to sin. I
feel that I am primarily responsible for the disbanding of
Ziklag because I believe that as the man that God charged
with carrying the vision out, that nothing could have
hindered or destroyed the group unless I allowed it to
happen. With my sins, I opened the door to the enemy and
gave him enough room to come in and steal what has been a
blessing and encouragement to many of you."
1996
"Through you, multitudes will be ushered into the
Kingdom." These are the words spoken to Tico through the
Spirit on a hot August night in southern California back in
1996. 2Pac had just been killed three months before.
Native Georgia
A moment in time that brought many grievances to the young,
inspiring producer, who had made his way to 'killa Cali'
from his native Georgia home the year before in a longshot
quest to be "discovered."
Threats
All within that year, Tico withstood everything from threats
and attacks on his life from gang sets, who for the most
part, grew to know and accept him into their fold. The MC at
one point, was a "trapper" (editor: drug dealer) with a
Crip set in LA County, to almost signing with a very corrupt
record label ran by a notorious LA gang member and drug
kingpin, and even dealing with homelessness, opting to sleep
in a Greyhound bus station for a while.
Streets
Even though Tico was no stranger to life in the streets, he
began selling crack at age 15, he managed to finish college
with honors and, in essence, this set of circumstances
proved to be more than he could bear. It was in the midst of
these experiences that Tico had learned from an uncle that
God was a "burden-removing, yoke-destroying God." Those
words stuck with him, even as he continued on with life in
the ghetto streets and eventually led him into the presence
of a true and living God, seeking His power to remove
burdens and destroy yokes.
Yokes
"I have many burdens and my whole life feels like a yoke. I
don't want to live anymore!" Tico cried to God as he
thought about the loaded 9mm pistol he carried in his
backpack, "but I heard that You can remove these burdens
from my life," he bargained, "and if you do, I will serve
you with the rest of my life."
Words
With these words came a life-altering experience in the true
presence of God unlike anything he'd ever experienced. He
became overwhelmed with a Spirit of joy and peace even as he
still had nowhere to lay his head, a feeling that he
describes as being "un-describable." That same day, Tico
accepted a job moving pianos that paid him, on the average,
$100 dollars a day in cash, ending his days in the Greyhound
station.
Communicate
It was no more than a couple weeks later that Tico received
the infilling of the Holy Spirit and began to communicate
with God on a personal level that has proven to be a
lifeline to him. It was then when God told him that
multitudes would be ushered into the Kingdom through him. A
week later, he was unctioned by the Spirit to visit a
Christian bookstore for the first time in his life.
Gospel Rap
This is where he ran upon a small section of cds entitled
"Gospel Rap." Tico describes his first thought and
reaction to seeing this section as being one of rage and
disgust: "I felt like these guys were obviously playing
with God, man. I didn't think that God and rap mixed."
Listen
After receiving the unction to listen to a couple of the
CDs. Future Shock, Tunnel Rats, Nuwine, DJ Dove and Gospel
Gangstas were among others that really impressed him. It
only took a couple of minutes before Tico realized that it
was God's will that he get on the mic and use his gift of
making music to represent the Kingdom of God. "This is what
I want you to do," said the still, yet recognizable voice
of God.
Own labels
The MC has founded his own label, PowwerHouse Productions in
2006 to release his new projects, which would receive
distribution through Sony-BMG/Provident-Integrity.
Labels
But the 2007 album "What The World Needs Now" is released
through the label Gozpul Music. The MC signed to this label
in November 2006. Distribution for this album is still dealt
with by Sony-BMG/Provident-Integrity.
Mixtapes
The MC is also featured on DJ Lace's Mix Club Volume 15
entitled Krazy Knuck 2005.
