Urban street evangelists.
Street Sweepers, comprised of three ministers of the Gospel of Christ, G-Wade from Washington, DC, R-Swift and Ackdavis from Philly. Three ministers with three distinct styles of ministry. God has joined these brothers together for one purpose and that’s to preach the unadulterated Word of God to the lost souls of the world. After performing as solo artists up and down the east coast, the three felt that they could make a greater impact in ministry as a group. So after a lot of prayer and supplication and earnestly seeking God, they all felt that God had given them the green light and so the Street Sweepers were born. Street Sweepers released their debut CD entitled, “M:22” on I-66 Entertainment. “Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye find, bid to the marriage. So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.” Matthew 22:9-10. This CD is guaranteed to spiritually clean up the streets by inviting all to come into the House of the Lord. The Street Sweepers were honored with the 2003 Holy Hip Hop Award at the 2003 Holy Hip Hop Awards in Atlanta, GA and they were nominated as group of the year by What’s The Word Magazine. They have performed with such groups as, Cross Movement, Grits, Seventh Day Slumber, Corey Red & Precise and have performed with Christian organizations such as; Acquire The Fire, Holy Hip Hop (ATL), Rap Fest (NY), Flavor Fest (FL) and Hoop Heaven Basketball Camp (NY). Along with the completion of R-Swift’s solo project, Elevation 81.02, you can also find them working on other solo projects; G-Wade is working on his solo debut CD, “He’s Still #1,” Ackdavis’, “Food For Thought,” and new Gospel singer, Kadreana Mack’s, “Ain’t Nothin’ But A Thang.” They are truly a force to be reckoned with! From radio, magazine, to television appearances, God has truly anointed these ministers to go out and preach the Gospel. When they’re not out ministering or in the studio, you can find them spending time with family and friends - just being positive role models in their communities. Keep your eyes and your ears open for what God has in store for them.

Chorus What you gonna speak - the truth or lie? Cuz’ when it comes down to Christ son it’s do or die Verse I The Ackdavis Verbal scientist beatin’ whack doctrines down with an iron fist Who is Jesus Christ but nobody’s defining it So I’m supplyin’ this thought like a psychiatrist You’ll die in this game if you’re tryin’ His name you’ll fry in the flames Lyrical evangelist critical like crime in Las Angeles Life without Christ you’re playin’ yourself like Jeru the Damager I can go twelve rounds beyond amature stamina While I’m handin’ you tracks and Bilically slammin’ ya from here to Canada R-Swift We keep it rugged son like we were Tony Montana So for Christ I rock the Blood-dipped Bandana Bang wit’ scripture hammers most cats can’t stand us cuz’ we preach about the Supernatural like Santana spit the Gospel grammar rep’ Jehovah Nissi’ The Banner In raw manner to any cat who wants to touch the Supreme man handler It’s scanulous how most cats wanna read God like an analyst And expect to know what the answer is G-Wade We’re street evangelists preachin’ the manuscript From the palaces to the abandon strips Stressin’ the fact that life without Christ is like abandon ship Divin’ head first in sin with no chance to live It’s my chance to give the ultimate ultimatum Choose Christ now or hell blazin’ – I stand adjacent To the One Who’s blood shed to save men So if I die my last words - Christ is ever remainin’ Verse II Ackdavis It's deadly like brain cancer is - so can they really handle us When we stoppin’ demons down in Christ name like Irish dancers kid Throwin’ mad questions at cats like Jeopardy panelist Who is Jesus liar lunatic lord or legend - the answer is the Lord The only to get to heaven - in Gods presence inhaling God’s essence like effervescent Refreshment - peep the lesson I'm stressin’ You can go from life to death in one second But you can go from death to life by one confession R-Swift Without Christ you live an unbalanced life like see-saws And refuse to see that you’re marked for death like Steve Segal The blind claimin’ to see God so we’re tryin’ to teach yall about the God Who sees all What you don’t know will hurt you so our mission is to reach yall And preach God even after the beats off – man strayed from God into a detour We beseech yall about the God who can free yall His name is Jesus aka Esau – so peace yall G-Wade While these false doctrines got you gassed up like helium I present the God who chose the death mission like Polestinians I’m revealin’ Him through hip hop – to most cats who ain’t feelin’ Him I’m fillin’ ‘em – wit’ the facts about the One who can truly deliver ‘em Turned Street Sweeper from the average criminal – see beyond subliminal My minimal facts is - without Christ you’re pinned by sin like both shoulders to a mattress I’m askin’ Verse III Ackdavis What you gonna speak - either the truth or lie Cause life without Christ is awkward - like having one tooth or eye Either your shoes can loose or tied when you’re running this race Satan’s out to devestate the whole place - just like an earthquake makin’ the earth shake With mad sin - Baskin like Robins with out the ice cream enticing You with the nice things - that might bring you into shock like lightning When you find out the same Jesus you was fighting Like a Viking is coming back like the empire striking R-Swift For the king - I speak the gospel with bass like lower octaves Spit provocative - run with a team of street prophets Hotter than nostrodamus - the truth we droppin' - makes cats want to switch topics Sin and death go together like rock and mosh pits You could - live in defeat or die daily surviving I stress the word of God and speak vibrant Choose Christ now before He eternally shuts your eyelids G-Wade We speak truth not lies – grab hold of the Light Source My life source is nothin’ less thatn Christ the Lord I’m plugged in to
