DC Talk (album) - Heavenbound and Spinnin' Round

Heavenbound and Spinnin' Round

The album's opening track provided the majority of the album's relative sales success. "Heavenbound" was originally recorded for the group's independently-released cassette demo Christian Rhymes to a Rhythm, which featured only Tait and McKeehan. It was re-recorded after Kevin Max was added to the group just prior to this release. The album received a sales boost after the music video for "Heavenbound," the only one made for this record, received airplay on the BET network's "Rap City." "Heavenbound" was featured on the compilation Ultimate Rap (Starsong, 1989).

The second but minor hit was "Spinnin' Round" featuring their friend Mike Valliere who beatboxed (known as "Valet Beat") on this Final Days, and Time Ta Jam. "Spinnin' Round" was featured on the compilations Rappin' His Word: Today's Hottest Christian Rap (Arrival Recordings, 1990) and Rap - Straight From the Streets (Benson, 1990).

Both songs were included in the album dc talk: The Early Years Additionally, "Gah Ta Be" was featured on Ultimate Rap 2 (Starsong, 1990).
