Info: | brandon Arriaga is Dokument. He was born in Texas in the mid
nineteen seventies to 2 young "hippie" parents, who came
to Christ in 1982. This changed his life immensly.
Dokument's mother accepted Jesus into her heart while
listening to a gospel radio program.
God's Call
One year later Dok's father also heard God's call. The
very same night that his father got saved, Dokument went to
the front of the congregation and recited the ‘sinner's
prayer' with one of the ushers. From that moment on,
everything in Dok's family life changed. "We went from
partying every weekend to attending church everyday. If the
church was open, we were there.”
Spiritual Awakening
During this time of spiritual awakening, Dok was also
experiencing a personal awakening – of music. He started
hearing kids at the playground reciting Run DMC lyrics. At 8
years old, Dokument had never heard anything like that
before. He asked a friend what kind of music it was. “It's
called rap, fool.” Dokument was intrigued and started
listening to hip hop and tried to master the art of rap.
Career
After graduating high school Dokument decided to pursue a
career as a youth pastor and enrolled in Christ For the
Nations Institute in Dallas. But eventually his skills as a
rapper surpassed his preaching skills and therefore he
brought his ministry to the hip hop arena.
Home
After paying dues in the christian rap scene for many years
as part of the duo The Foundation – performing at local
churches and humble venues - Dokument was invited to move to
California and join the Tunnel Rats. He gladly received the
blessing and now calls Los Angeles – and the Rathole (the
Tunnelrats' Studio) – home. |
