Sawwed-Off Ru, aka Tank, is a living testament to man’s ability to overcome any
obstacle through the grace of Yah. Once a burgeoning rapper on the brink of
fame, he is now wrongfully serving a lifetime sentence. And yet, rather than
disappear, he has reemerged as an artist with a story that is impossible to ignore.
Thanks to the influence of his adopted mother, Tank spent his early days
absorbing the teachings of both Yahshua and Martin Luther King Jr, giving him a
lifelong appreciation for spirituality and justice. Later, he discovered hip-hop
through Tupac. It became instantly clear to him that music would be the path to
salvation. He recorded his first track at age 13, and by age 21, his music was
being played in some of the biggest clubs in the country. However, just when he
was about to make his breakthrough, it all came crumbling down. Tank was
present at the scene of a drive-by, and that was enough for him to be convicted.
