BOANEGES: The Sons of Thunder. Men who were so on fire for Jesus not only were they called as disciples but called to Jesus’ inner circle. Men who were such soldiers for the Kingdom of God they were willing to burn down the kingdoms of earth to defend it.
Men like these have been missing from our generation for years until NOW… Blue Chip (Gerard Hennig) and Specialist (Rudy Ramos) also known as the devastating duo BOANERGES, formed in the fall of 1999, and quickly got to work for the Kingdom. They created a buzz in the city of Louisville, Kentucky until the public demanded an album.
In the middle of recording their first album God sent them to Indianapolis, Indiana for more than an opportunity to minister. After leaving the stage high in the Spirit the owner of Tyscot Records had a contract waiting for them to sign.
Teamed up with the likes of Knowledge, L.O.G.I.C., and Fiti Futuristic, some of Indianapolis’ best Christian emcees, Righteous Riders was born. Blue Chip and Specialist ministered on tour with the Righteous Riders adding an element of the anointing of God not seen in Christian Hip-Hop.
With their primary focus on ministry God sent them on tour throughout the U.S. and overseas in Europe. They have shared the stage with Corey Red, Master P and Lil’ Romeo, Pettidee , Missy Elliot and Timberland, Trina, Detrick Haddon, Lil Jon and the Eastside Boyz, Michelle of Destiny’s Child, Prime Minister, B.B. Jay, Lexi, Woody Rock of Drew Hill, Gospel Gangstaz, Trick Daddy, Dr. Bobby Jones, Kirk Franklin, Mary Mary as well as many others.
As you can see they are not afraid to take the Gospel to the streets. They have had three music videos in heavy rotation on B.E.T., The Inspirational Network and The Word Network. They have also frequently visited T.B.N. for guest appearances and ministry opportunities. Blue Chip and Specialist aka BOANERGES are seasoned veterans to the life of Christian Hip-Hop ministers. With their radio hit “The Vibe” from the Righteous Riders album “The Awakening” and an outstanding presence on “Internal Affairs”, Blue Chip and Specialist aka BOANERGES is back in the lab working on their first official album since 1999. Specialist and Blue Chip are calling out the devil to battle on the new project: “GROUNDZero”. With innovative production from fellow Righteous Rider L.O.G.I.C., and the most ferocious rhymes you’ve ever heard from Christian emcees; Blue Chip and Specialist has set the standard for Hip-Hop ministers worldwide. With their cry loud and spare not attitude “GROUNDZero” is an album not to be taken lightly.

Sandra Smooth is the name given by her audience to the full psaltery sound of the jazzy soulful voice of Sandra Smith. With a range from first soprano to a deep melodic alto she generates without missing a beat.
The message comes out loud and clear, relax and hear from heaven through this powerfully sweet anointed voice. The baby of nineteen siblings, she was born and raised in Jacksonville, Florida. Her parents brought her up in a God centered home, where she came to know about the Lord. But, at the early age of sixteen the death of her mother changed her life forever. What always got her through were the songs.
The songs, her mother sang around the house, songs she sang in church, and new songs given by divine inspiration. She also says that “God kept me… because of my mother’s prayers”. Yes, with a very prayerful mother who taught her well to look to Jesus and always know that He loves you and care for you. And the loving devoted relationship that her Father and Mother shared as a couple, her childhood desire was to share this love that she experienced daily with the world by, “Singing for Jesus” and “Letting everyone know who God truly is and what He is like”.
That is truly a life long ambition; that is demonstrated in her character and through every song. While singing and songwriting is her act of praise and worship she shares a passion of “Helps” with her high school sweet heart hubby, and together they speak to groups and to one-on-ones about every vital issue of life. They minister to the hearts and minds of every age group. Sharing God’s love is their number one priority.
Narrow Street Music, is their sons music production company, established from their early family music ministry of “Serenity Gospel Ministry”. Sandra has traveled the world over demonstrating the unconditional love of God and the teachings of Jesus Christ wherever she goes. Her goal is to reach all for the increase of the Kingdom of all Mighty God.
