Details:
The Holy Triad consist of the lyricist The Grand Shariyf and composer/arranger Dr. Drex with God as the third component, making the triad holy despite the Judeo-Christian implications of the groups name and the album's title. They insist that they are not to be confused with Gospel styled rap. On the contrary, it is traditional hip-hop. The Holy Triad is a breath of fresh air from the befouled airwaves of commercial radio.

These Jersey residents come onto the scene sounding not like new jacks, but more like seasoned players in the hip-hop game.

The Grand Shariyf is a commendable lyricist with flows reminiscent of Nas, Common, Rakim, and Cannibus with content and delivery that could make him a potential candidate as the successor to KRS-1.

Dr. Drex's mature and soulful compositions bring back the "groove" that's been missing for so long in hip-hop with true musical instrumentation and not over used sampling so prevalent in commercial hip-hop.

The chemistry of Grand Shariyf's commanding voice and vocal style over Dr. Drex's entrancing beats makes The Second Coming timeless, with hits that will appeal to old and new heads who love true hip-hop.
