About Us

Eternal Life Music is a Christian rap group; a ministry for the Lord, committed to making God glorifying music and giving it to you for FREE.

Essentially two dudes, Ken Steward (”KinDeezil”) and Todd Barnes (”tb”), the group is based in the Philly, PA area where Ken and Todd began doing ministry together in the fall of 2007.  In December of that year, Eternal Life Music (then “Eternal Life”) released its debut E.P. – “Honest Effort” to see what the Lord would do with it.  In unexpected ways the Lord blessed exceedingly and abundantly through the love and support shown by individuals in the body of Christ.  Among the highlights were: various opportunities to minister the word of truth, including a trip to Calvary Chapel Blue Island near Chicago, Ill., for a free concert at a youth ministry event where a young lady gave her life to Christ after the concert; a concert at Careview Community Church in Lansdowne, PA, for their Vacation Bible School’s closing ceremony; repeated appearances at events hosted by the Church of Broken Pieces in Philadelphia; and a myspace message from a sister who received one of the free cd’s left at a Christian café, stating that she “cried rivers of tears” as one of the songs on the E.P. made her feel like God was speaking directly to her.  The brothers are humbled by what the Lord has done, and recognize that without the Holy Spirit it would just be music.

The Lord did an amazing thing once again in March of 2009.  Weaving lives together as He so frequently does, God connected Todd and Ken with D.J. Vic Padilla, founder of Holy Culture Radio, a well-known Christian Hip Hop website.  Impressed with what the Lord was doing with Todd and Ken, and their vision for the ministry, Vic asked the brothers to pray about bringing him on board.  Vic made an immediate impact by creating EternalLifeMusic.com and suddenly the music was availiable world-wide.

In the Summer of 2009, Eternal Life Music released it’s self-titled album: Eternal Life Music.  The project is well received by many, and noted for its maturity as compared to the 2007 Honest Effort project.  Live performances of select songs from this album are available on youtube at www.youtube.com/user/EternalLifeMusic.

Now in 2010, Eternal Life Music is in regular rotation on SLSradio.com (Saving Lost Souls radio), and working toward a 2010 release of their third free album, tentatively entitled “Message From Eternity.”  Stay tuned.
