The Christian rap group Alliance By Faith began at J. Frank Dobie High School in Houston, Texas as a Bible study. Their mission was, and still is, to guide and teach their peers how to battle life's everyday struggles by applying Godly principles. Through daily meetings, students were encouraged to explore the Word of God and to act as a shining light in their school. Unexpectedly, the group grew so large that it needed to be held in a bigger room! Even though the original members have since graduated, “The Alliance” continues to meet to this day.
The founders of A.B.F. -- LaRymes and Sypreme -- were inspired by the success of the gatherings and decided to follow an even bigger vision of using their unique talents of rapping, singing, and performance to reach out to more youth around the nation. Thus, the Christian rap group Alliance By Faith was born. In June 2005, Alliance By Faith released their first album entitled "Work Hard Pray Hard". The album was a hit and caused so much commotion, A.B.F. was nominated to receive three awards at the Texas Holy Hip Hop Awards in 2005!
LaRymes and Sypreme have continued to enlighten and encourage a countless number of youth around Texas. With numerous performances, the group has been able to provide a great service to the community and also to struggling children, teens, and adults through the power of Christ and music. In 2006, Alliance By Faith was honored to be named “New Artist of the Year” at the Texas Holy Hip Hop Achievement Awards.
With a second album in the works, A.B.F. is making plans to travel around the nation sharing hope and excitement through their ministry. They continue to keep their eye on the prize and have been blessed to work with many powerful soldiers for Christ, such as Melvin Adams of the Harlem Globe Trotters.
Alliance By Faith was formed as a peaceful gathering under the Lord and with God’s blessing and their passion for Christ, there is just no stopping them!
"We thank God everyday for the opportunities he has given us. We enjoy what we do... Who doesn't enjoy 'getting crunk' for Christ?"
