Oscar Rivera, was raised in the inner city of Waterbury, Connecticut, and was taught at an early age how to be a survivor. His method of avoiding the streets and its promises, became the art of Hip Hop. Oscar’s energy and passion for the faith makes his approach: inspirational and real-to-life. ​ Oscar is a Franciscan University Alumni (10′), and earned his Masters of Arts in Theology with Saint Leo University (15′).

He takes his knowledge of the faith and inspires the youth, and young adults of today’s culture through his music, talks, retreats, and personal testimony. He brings a message of hope in times of despair, love during times of hate, and faithfully follow God, no matter the obstacles.  His life has been devoted to the New Evangelization of the Gospel and his upbeat contemporary approach to the good news has made the message easy to understand, follow, and relate to.

​Christianity is not boring, and Oscar  does not intend to be either.
