Hawthorne, California of Mexican & Indian descent. His
mother, too young to care for him, left him to be raised by
another family. He grew up surrounded by drugs, gangs and
violence.
Chosen
In RedCloud’s freshman year of high school he came to
realize that life that his family and friends had chosen for
themselves was not the life he wanted. He was “jumped out”
of a gang that had long been the center of his life. At this
point in life, RedCloud focused his time and energy on
school, martial arts and hip hop. He graduated in 1996 from
high school.
Battle rap
By the age of 17, RedCloud had honed his freestyle and
battle rap skills to a level high enough to beat well
respected competitors. In the next few years RedCloud made
his mark and became a local favorite at elite hip hop clubs
in the Los Angeles underground scene.
Syntax statement
On July 2nd, 2009 Syntax Records released the following
statement: "Praise the Lord! Blessed is the man who fears
the Lord, who greatly delights in his commandments! …He is
not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the
Lord. (Ps. 112:1,7)"
It is with deep sorrow that we write this letter concerning
our friend and long-standing business partner RedCloud.
After nearly a decade of working together, Syntax Records
has decided to indefinitely suspend all promotion, support,
and endorsement of RedCloud due to what we consider
“Substance Abuse” [smoking weed]. This decision was not made
hastily, rather, the biblical precedents were followed with
much patience, grace, and longsuffering (this did not happen
overnight).
It is out of necessity that we make this decision since our
business principles and ethics are not superior to the
biblical moral standards that all Christians are subject to.
We hold the Bible as the final authority of what we believe
and how we should live. We believe the Bible condemns
substance abuse as a “deed of the flesh.” The “deeds of the
flesh” flow from the desires of the flesh, and the flesh
sets itself against the Spirit (Galatians 5:16-24).
In the spirit of Matthew 18:15-20, RedCloud, was confronted
individually with the aim of restoration. After a reasonable
period of time without repentance, RedCloud was confronted
with witnesses to establish the charge.
In no way do we assume we are morally superior to RedCloud
or anyone. But we don’t proclaim ourselves, rather, we
proclaim Christ, and Christ is morally superior to all –
“For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as
Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake. (2
Cor. 4:5)”
It is our prayer and desire to see RedCloud, whom we love,
reconciled to us, his family, and to his God, and that God
honors our decision in this disciplinary yet restorative
effort. In closing, this will be the only response we
provide on this situation until a praise report is warranted
in the future of RedCloud’s repentance, restoration, and
reconciliation.
Track Evandalism
On April 1st, 2010 the rapper released the track
"Evandalism" on Youtube.com. In the song RedCloud as the
battle rapper who he is vented off his frustration about the
christian hip hop community. The song would be taken down
April 2nd. In an interview with DJ Will at DaSouth.com
released on Friday, April 9th, 2010 the rapper explained his
actions: "I was caught in a position to where [...] I had no
recordlabel, I felt like everything was crumbling around me
and I wrote the song in pure therapy. I recorded it as a
therapy, maybe I should have kept it to myself.
[..] I'm a believer, I'm still a believer, I'm not a cold
hearted killer to walk away from what I did. But I did
something and it was something I had to have off my chest
and I'm not going to try to justify what I did I could have
done it a hundred million ways, but the way I did it was
probably not the best way. And definitely not the way a
christian would have done things. And for that I do
apologize."
Awards
Native American-owned local record label, Upriza Records
based out of Puyallup, Washington, hosted the First Annual
West Coast American Indian Music Awards at the Muckleshoot
White River Amphitheatre on May 3rd, 2008. At the ceremony
