Kimberly Rice Bio

Kimberly Rice was born and raised in Detroit, MI. She attended Detroit Public Schools. She began taking dance classes at Loving Elementary School in 3rd grade. She started writing music (r&b, rap, and love songs) in elementary school and as a child she sang with the Ethereal Choir, and the B-Still Ensemble at People's Community Church when she was a teenager. At the age of 16 she was baptized and things began to turn around in her life. As a junior at Cass Tech, she started to face health challenges causing her to leave high school and attend home-school for a semester. It was during that time that God began to open her eyes and take her through a journey, beginning with conviction. Humbled by the experience, she began to speak at events encouraging those who are going through trials and tribulations. That year, she felt a call to ministry and preached her first sermon in North Carolina at her aunt Linda's Church. After taking her first piano class in college, she began writing gospel music at the age of 19. Her first gospel ballad is entitled "I Love You". She also began gospel rapping in 2005, and one of her earliest gospel raps, written in 2006 with her sister Angela Knight "Adjust It For Me" has been performed for many years for several audiences, both young and old. In March 2007, she launched her production company "Praise His Name Productions" and began to produce music and films independently from her home studio, working on her first album "I Would Give My All".

Kim attended Wayne State University and obtained her B.A. in Media Arts in May 2008 and an M.A. in Communications in December 2011. One of her favorite scriptures is "I can do all things through Christ..."

Calvin Cofield Bio

Calvin Cofield was born and raised in Detroit, MI and later his parents moved he and the family to Redford, MI where he attended Redford Thurston High School. He is a writer, producer, director, arranger, filmmaker, and fashion designer. He wrote his first song during his early childhood when Essie, his mother's hair designer, who also inspired him passed away. Later, he spent time writing and battle-rapping with his brother. "But I never really took music serious until high school," the artist explains.

In 9th-10th grade, while free-styling for other rappers, they wanted him to feature on their tracks. At the time, he was smoking, drinking, partying, gambling and selling drugs. His life was changed in January 2006 when He had an encounter with the Lord.

His clothing line is called Directed P.A.T.H. (People Anointed Through Him) which is also the name of his upcoming album. He is the CEO of Calvin's World Productions, LLC, established in 2014.
