Influences
As a man I'm influenced by the word of God (The Bible), and those who model maturity in the faith. As an artist my influences are: Pharoahe Monch, B.I.G., Big Pun, Elzi (Slum Village), Phanatik (Crossmovement), Kool G Rap, Big Daddy Kane, Mos Def, Nas, & Common.
Living most of his life in Philly; surrounded by the influence of sex,
money, drugs, popularity, and the constant rush for fame. He began
to put his hope in the wrong thins such as selling drugs, sexual
immorality, and living a violent lifestyle. While on the road to
becoming a product of his environment, he still wanted to do good.
Attempting to do so he became a member of the Philadelphia Boys
Choir & Men's Choral, was an award recipient of the Concerned Black
Men Inc., and a featured performer at the William Ross Scholarship
Banquet.
Currently, Swift is actively involved with the Youth Study Center in
Philadelphia (a detention center for youth offenders) where he
ministers the Gospel.
R-Swift now makes it his duty to show the love of Christ Jesus through
his lifestyle, spreading the gospel of reconciliation to all who will hear.
From nightclubs to corner cypha's to underground hip-hop spots.
Wherever the Lord sends him, he goes with the same message:
Christ and him crucified.
R-Swift gives all Glory to God, who is the Author and the Finisher of
his faith. He is a faithful member of Antioch Christian Fellowship (of
Calvary Chapel) where Aaron Campbell is pastor.
Through lyrical evangelism, teaching and preaching, he is fulfilling
the vision that God has given him - to tell the untold and reach the
un-reached. To rebuild ancient ruins, to raise up age old foundations,
to be a repairer of broken walls, and restorer of the streets; in
accordance to Isaiah 58:12.

Hey how you been? What have you been up to? I hope all is well for you and your family, take care and be safe. May God's grace keep shining upon your ministry.
We need you, Lord. Like lost wanderers in a burning, empty desert thirst for cool, clean water, we long for you to quench us. In a world gone progressively mad, with chaos all around us, we seek refuge in the order and purpose of your law. With evil sneaking, leaking everywhere, spreading heavy darkness, creating feelings of emptiness, we hunger for your goodness and light. Turn us around, Lord, we pray; retrieve your sheep who have gone astray. Draw us to the satisfaction of your purity and righteousness. Cleanse us, and make us more like you, role models, examples, beacons, for others who are searching for meaning for their lives. Come, Lord Jesus. We need you, Lord.
