Genesis
Divinely assembled in the summer of 1999, three guys from various parts of the country formed The Remnant, while still at Morehouse College.

Musical Style
The only consistency in their musical style is quality music. As they state on their site: A music forged from a deep camaraderie, a ministry bound by a brotherhood, and a purpose anchored in El Shaddai, these men sought to fill a gap between the passionate love of the Divine and the reckless ways of mankind.

Scripture
Grasping to the promise that the minor can effect the major and the few can influence the multitude, The Remnant holds tightly to the scripture Jeremiah 23:3 where through obedience and sacrifice their numbers might grow.

Dorm room
The Remnant had humble beginnings. Starting out on a Friday night in a a dorm room using general market computer studio software and a couple microphones. Hardly the components for success, but brave-hearted and sure-footed, The Remnant began to test the waters at local collegiate venues in Atlanta.

Performing
The reception wasn’t like wildfire, but with each concert a few more people caught a hold of the vision. Eventually performing at churches, faith-based programming and local Festivals, The Remnant began to travel Georgia and the surrounding states. Holding down full-time academic schedules and some part-time employment, the music was part of a juggling act that still managed to produce overwhelmingly favorable results.

First Release
This culminated into the release of their first professionally recorded project entitled Restless Youth in the summer of 2003 on CaJo International. Featuring radio-friendly anthems like The Real and feel good classics like Christian Girl, Restless Youth signified a breakthrough for the group and their constituents. Receiving much acclaim from fans, disc jocks, and artists alike, The Remnant was asked to represent on two nationwide tours spanning across 60 cities and 25 states over the course of three months.

After School
In the spring of 2005, The Remnant geared up for their second effort entitled After School Special. Instead of simply building on the foundation of the first album, the guys decided to expand the groundwork with an independent record that reflected their growth.

Illness
The crew has taken a blow by the illness of Adam Beane, who has been diagnosed with Crohn's disease in 2004. Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory bowel disease, the general name for diseases that cause swelling in the intestines.
The disease is hard to diagnose and therefore Adam made a lot of medical bills.

The Genesis Project
ShadowFacts Records is about to release "The Genesis Project" in 2006. This compilation album will feature many known holy hip hop artists to raise money to relieve Adam's financial situation.
