Atlanta-bred Christian MC Alex Faith arrived on the CCM hip-hop scene in 2009 with a guest spot on Sho Baraka's Barakology mixtape. From there he went on to be featured prominently on tracks from several well-loved artists in the Southern Christian rap world, contributing verses to material from Swoope and Dre Murray. Faith eventually followed up with his own online singles and mixtapes, and in 2013 released his debut full-length, ATLast, a collection of rhymes that were as observational of the ills of society as they were devoted to his faith and beliefs. In addition to focusing on his own music, Faith is part of the rap collective W.L.A.K. (aka We Live As Kings) and appeared on their widely successful self-titled debut, also released in 2013. ~ Fred Thomas
