Beginnings
Dave Portillo and Eddie Sierra from California began rapping
in 1985 under the name of Deity, but later changed it to the
12th Tribe.
Name
The group name of 12th Tribe comes from the books in the Old
Testament of the bible, which speaks of the Tribe of
Benjamin in which the Hebrew translation of Benjamin means;
Son of my right hand. 12th Tribe also is defined in the
bible as Mighty Archers men that fought with their
individual bow and arrows.
Daily Struggle
The 12th Tribe was a young group of men that inherited this
mighty gift of distinguished courage and fierce
determination. Now, in our modern day battles of daily life
struggles and spiritual warfare these individuals do not
take lightly the name that the Lord appointed them.
Perfomances
They have in many occasions preached, and spoke at many
youth conferences and have been on panels at Christian Rap
Festivals such as Flavor Fest last November 2005 in Tampa,
Florida in which the title was called The Longevity of
Christian Hip-Hop.
Albums
Their sound was influenced by soul and heavy metal. The
crew's debutalbum "Knowledge is The Tree of Life" got
released in 1991.
New Project
12th Tribe is currently working on a new album. The album is
scheduled for 2008, but there is no title known as of
yet.
