Sho Baraka on “High Charity” missions off stage

Back in March, at the South by Southwest (SXSW) music festival in Austin, DaSouth.com co-owner Bobby "Tre9" Herring and I connected with High Society founding member Sho Baraka backstage to ask about how he integrates Christian mission work into his life outside of music.

Although he was a bit reluctant to do so for fear of sounding boastful, he did take a few moments to provide some examples of what he's doing in his community and encourage others to do the same.

Oh yeah, there's also a special message at the end for people who were concerned about his faith after leaving Reach Records and stating he no longer desired to make music exclusively for the Christian market.
