Music sets the tone and directs the mood of any situation. It's driving beats and repetitious message are shaping the minds of our youth. While many of our youth find it challenging to quote the books of the bible or memorize a verse beyond John 3:16; they can without hesitation or effort verbally and physically illustrate the chronicles of the latest chart topping hip-hop/R&B hit. In an effort to not mimic the world but to set a standard God has raised up a young man with a message in his music delivered with relevance and in excellence.

iroCc: whose name stands for his daily declaration - I Rely On Christ completely - is a commanding and bold hip-hop artist with a strong voice, infectious stage presence and fervor for God and music. His life reflects the call to be a young warrior for Christ. And through his music, iroCc challenges today's youth and the body of Christ as a whole; to adhere to a higher standard of positive living. That message is heard loud and clear through the messages in his music and his passionate life lived.
iroCc achieved widespread success and recognition with his debut self-titled CD In 2003 on EMI CMG; encompassing his debut with a Stellar Award and a Dove Nomination. From the moment his sophomore offering THE SEQUEL hit the streets it was destined to make a mark and solidify the young phenom as a solid artist within the music industry.

Since beginning this awesome journey in 2002 at the tender of age of 12; iroCc has immensely grown and matured both in the industry and spiritual realms. After an amicable release from EMI CMG in 2004; iroCc continued on with his assignment in a bold manner by establishing his own label imprint with national distribution; out of the mouth and heart of a ?babe' ? Authority Music was birthed. As always his family stands; specifically Big ROCC positioned as the cornerstones to his foundation.
