Another young pop artist was not what intrigued me about Orrico, I was more so in awe of the fact that she was outspoken about her faith and I myself was beginning to pursue my journey with God. It was the first time that I had ever heard of a contemporary Christian artist. It was my best friend, Giselle that handed me a copy of Orrico's 2003 self-titled second album. Music was always the tool God used to reach me before I came to have a relationship with him. Growing up in Brooklyn, New York, in a violent home, made every moment of my life a desperate cry for positivity in hopes to keep my sanity.
