DC talk
D.C. talk got together early 1989 and released their first self-titled album late of that year. In 1990 they released an album called ‘Nu Thang’ and they also made a Christmas compilation called ‘Yo ho, ho’. It was that album that started them in the secular and also Christian scheme of music. That year and the next was a big 2 years for them as they also won a dove award and had a big tour. 1991 they released an album called ‘Free at last’ and it hit number 1 on the CCN music charts for 34 consecutive weeks. ‘Free at last’ was their third album and was released in 1992. Because of that C.D they made a movie called ‘free at last’. 1994 the Free at last album won them a Grammy award, for the best Rock Gospel album. Their next C.D was ‘Jesus Freak’ in ’95 and it went platinum pretty quickly because they had the most first week sales for any Christian music C.D up till that day. They had a huge tour with that C.D called ‘The Freak Show’ and it was probably the biggest tour they had ever done going through the U.S, Canada and Europe. This C.D also got them into mainstream a lot more with the secular release of ‘Just between you and me’. It made it to #12 on a popular top 40 chart. The film
If I was in a Christian band I think that I would put all my effort into dedicating my work to God and if I failed I think I would have to quit. I wouldn’t be able to keep going knowing how much I’ve failed. D.C. Talk has taught us how to be stronger in God and that it is possible to get the word of God to people everywhere. If you don’t believe in God than D.C. talk may not have over come anything, but to me and lots of other Christians D.C. Talk is an incredibly awesome band, not just their music but also the fact that they are so popular and yet so strong in their faith. Over all the time that I did D.C. Talk I appreciated them more and more, and not just for their music. I realised that if I want to go into the Christian music industry I have to be strong willed and ready for a challenge. I think that D.C.T are a great influence to other aspiring Christian music artists. D.C Talk has had a challenge their whole career and has fought it very well up to this point. Now that they have gone solo they are still fighting strong. God has worked through them in a different way for the better and now they have been rewarded with popularity and money. I am glad that I got to do D.C Talk for Exhibitions because they are such a good example for me… and others. D.C. Talk has overcome their goal very well up to now and I think that they will keep staying on task for as long as they are a band. I know my Christian walk has increased because of them and I’m sure that a lot of other people’s lives have too. They
