Philadelphia’s Da’ T.R.U.T.H. is
a vanguard artist in the genre
of Christian rap, having won
numerous awards and critical
praise.
Originally a drummer, Emanuel Lee Lambert, Jr. became
Da’ T.R.U.T.H. in 2003 when
the Cross Movement label
released his debut EP Who Is
the Truth. A year later, his debut album Moment of Truth
appeared, with The Faith
following in 2005. The latter
won the Stellar Award of Rap/
Hip-Hop Gospel CD of the
Year in 2007. That same year
his Open Book album arrived,
winning its own Stellar Award
plus a Grammy nomination,
in 2008. Truth in advertising,
his ambitious effort The Big
Picture landed in 2009 with a
guest appearance from Kirk
Franklin. ~ David Jeffries
