As a little treat the all the guys and gals celebrating Valentine’s Day with that special someone…. enjoy a new single by San Diego rapper, Skeez, called “Different”.
Skeez is no stranger to the UN-ASSOCIATED family. As founder of the We N.L.Y.T.E.N. record label, Skeez has developed a niche in delivering bars in a sophisticated rap style, and has slowly added more members to his NYLTEN team. Other artists affiliated with the label include Dannihana, M.B.$, Cambone, Drew Burgandy and Clue. Together the team look to make an impact on the Southeast San Diego community and leave behind a legacy. This group of young Black men, see the sky as the limit. Skeez in particular explains his vision of the future to be one that includes the record label encouraging the youth around the world to enlighten themselves and avoid mediocracy.

But ministry is about serving the Lord, which is, in turn, about serving wherever it is that the Lord has called you to and doing it excellently …

The following truth about Black people will prevail despite the ignorance of many: we belong.

I can regard others the way I, myself, have been regarded in the eyes of the Father. Jesus washed feet (John 13:5) and loved His enemies. He has not asked me to ..

The grace we have received through Christ’s sacrifice provides us redemption, but not an excuse to allow sin to abound in our lives …
