Please buy my band's single!
 As most of you probably have no idea, I'm in a music group called EDIFY. It's a Christian music group consisting of myself and a friend of mine. It's classified as hip-hop but we're always experimenting with other genres and blending things together. We're not typical (I wouldn't have it any other way!). So far we've been working with contemporary, metal, acoustic, pop, electronic, and other styles. Maybe we'll even do something with neo-classical and orchestral sometime. We've finally got our first single out the door called Superstar. It's already playing on a few radio stations in Canada and the US (and possibly the UK, I'm not sure). We've got a few shows lined up in Winnipeg in the next coming months if you're near. In January sometime we may be possibly opening for a group called FM Static which is made up of the same musicians and artists as the internationally known Christian rock band Thousand Foot Krutch so that's a pretty decent break. And in November we're touring with a band called That Place in Ontario. Come check us out! http://edifymusic.ca/ Even if you don't particularly care for the message or even for the style of music that's ok. You can set your own price! (with a minimum limit of 89 cents) And if you don't feel like shelling out your hard earned pennies, please spread the word about us if you may know of somebody who might be interested! It's been a very long road getting this all together and moving forward. Originally we had a 7-piece band called The Free Agency which went nowhere for the longest time. Slowly everyone departed and it was just my friend and I left which is fine because we were already working closely together anyway. I'm the composer and guitarist for the group and my friend Alex is the lyricist and vocalist. We had a guest female vocalist on this particular song named Dee Liandra who did a simply phenomenal job. Our first album is coming out soon once we get the rest of the tracks done, but as of now enjoy Superstar!

"Superstar is a song about the greatness of God and how the people we may look up to in our lives cannot compare to Him and what He's done for us. We are nothing and He is everything. Fame, fortune, and recognition don't matter. He is all we need."
Bloody fucking hell, mate... |

Good job going out for what you believe in/like/enjoy doing, mate! You probably will get a lot of snap from this forum because, correctly me if I'm wrong, we're predominately atheist, but don't let that discourage you. Keep up the good work. The songs not for me 'cause I am atheist and don't like rap/pop, but I'll be sure to let anyone I know who may be interested know! Great job. Umm...  OFFENSIVENESS AVOIDED!

I bought it
 Not my type of music, but I can see (or rather hear) the hard work behind it. Good job! Always believe in your dreams, dude! Say "Hi" to your friend for me and "Keep on doing what you love!" to both of you. Godspeed!

I'm not expecting anyone to agree with my beliefs and I'm not expecting to convert anyone by them listening to our music. I'm just sharing a milestone in our long musical journey. So I'm not going to respond to anything related to that. I've long known that most here were not Christians by any stretch of the imagination and I'm still friends with many of them. I don't really care about that.
Thank you to all who gave your support! It's much appreciated. We're not out to make money so much as we are letting people know who we are and sharing our music with those who enjoy it. So a huge thanks to you Silverwolfpet for buying even though it's not your style. I know I said "please buy our single!" but that was more of a joke than anything and I hope everyone realizes that. Continue to be awesome, all of you.
