Today we’d like to introduce you to Darria Onry.
Hi Darria, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I grew up in the southern rough areas of Memphis such as “RivaCide” and “DHG” known for its more rough urban neighborhoods. Having a mother who had to constantly relocate in order to keep me and my sister safe motivated me to know there’s more to life than living in a cycle like such. Coming out from this area with a calling on my life believing God has a plan and purpose for my gift’s to be brought nationwide in the Gospel and faith-based hip-hop community.
I did not always pursue God’s purpose and served a 2-5 year sentence in prison. During that time, I allowed God to build upon me the necessary means and attributes of maintaining a ministry of entertainment and witnessing to those who hear my music and speaking. I was able to begin this ministry while in prison giving life to my fellow inmates, guards and counselors.
I now go Full throttle speaking, teaching, rapping and entertaining audiences nationwide through the good news of Christ. My mission is reaching the lost, meeting the youth where they are and projecting a path they can move forward on, and performing in secular locations and events while bringing an UNCUT gospel.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It’s been a great learning and growing experience!
