Artist History
In 1991 ProfitX formed the group KSOS. “After the group K.S.O.S. broke up, I started to focus on my studies. I graduated with a master’s degree in social work in 1995. Being involved in social work, you come across so many people who have many different needs. One of my main motivations for taking this rap thing to another level is to be able to share a Christian message with the people I come in contact with.” |

Press Reviews
EnTune ezine - January 2000: ProfitX comments, "The messages that I rap about in my songs are all about how much God loves us and how the end of time is here. Those were the same subjects that Christ delivered when He was here walking the streets and teaching people. So, while the method of delivering the message has changed from preaching to rapping, the actual message that the people receive is still the same." |
