DJs curently tearing it up at the Click Club and on B.I.C. Sound System

Grantly
Starting out his working life as a yacht builder, Lee Grant (aka Grantly) moved into radio in 1985. He became a gospel presenter in 1997, the same year that he became a Christian. This happened when his girlfriend, now his wife, invited him to a christening and he met the pastor of the church. Two weeks later, he started attending that church, and was baptised four months later and says that it was down to the warm, friendly atmosphere.

Learning his radio skills (such as presenting and editing) after working as a volunteer for Guys Hospital radio, he is currently on talkGospel.com between 12 – 6 pm Monday to Friday and Saturday 1 – 6 pm (GMT). In 2002, Grantly was spotted hosting a show case which led to him having his own programme on Revelation TV.

2004 sees Grantly jointly hosts the Straight Up Show on Premier Radio, which airs each Saturday evening between 6 – 7 pm (GMT) on www.premier.org.uk, 1305, 1314, 1332, MW, Sky 873, NTL 886 and free view 725.

Grantly has always had a passion for urban life styles and what he could do to help build the Kingdom. As a result, he launched his gospel sound rig, Brothers in Christ (B.I.C). B.I.C aims to recruit other like-minded Ministers/DJ’s who share in the same vision to bring about positive and effective change. By staging various events we, have managed to evangelise to our present day youth in modern day terms, using the sound rig and the Word of God.

Tito Carless
Ever since Tito was saved in 1988 at sixteen, he began spending his money on gospel music, which made him very popular amongst his friends for playing them out at parties and weddings.Tito got his first break in radio back in 1999 as a station assistant with Grantly on Fusion Radio, formerly known as FLR, and helped to produce the gospel show 'Postive Vibes'. Producing and presenting always interested Tito and an opportunity for presenting came up.
After four years with Fusion, Tito joins Grantly on the talkGospel.com team presenting the 1800 - 2300 show and he specialises in R'n'B and hip hop.Tito is married with three girls who keep him occupied, but in his spare time, he plays football and plays percussion and the drums as part of the team at his church.

Oracle: Da Urban Evangelist
1995 The New Era!! At the age of 19 Jesus stepped into my life and showed me nuff love and since then I haven't been able to keep it to myself. I looked at relevant ways of getting the gospel across, school assemblies, urban concerts, RE/PSHE lessons and through community radio stations. I started dropping gospel tunes at friend's weddings and birthdays in ‚96 and then on two community radio stations in June '00. I love playing good music which makes people get their praise on through Hip Hop, RnB, Ragga, and Garage. My vision is to make Church relevant for the da youngsters with an urban feel, if they won't come to church then let‚s take the church to them in the forms of clubs and let the Word of God through music change peoples lives. I am married to a beautiful and wonderful wife called Angie with 2 Children and live in NW London.

God given talents: worship Leader, singer, rapper, MC, and communicating the gospel and working with the youth.
