THE CROSS MOVEMENT RECEIVES 2008 STELLAR AWARD NOMINATION
Group Nominated for "Rap/Hip-Hop Gospel CD of the Year" for Latest Album HIStory

Cross Movement Nashville, TN (Oct 29, 2007) - Cross Movement Records is pleased to announce that GRAMMY and Dove Award-nominated hip-hop group The Cross Movement has been nominated for a 2008 Stellar Award in the category of "Rap/Hip-Hop Gospel CD of the Year" for their latest project, HIStory: Our Place In His Story. The 23rd Annual Stellar Awards will take place January 12, 2008 at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville, Tenn., and is the largest gospel music awards show in America, bringing together some of the most noted singers and celebrities in the world.

On HIStory, The Cross Movement (consisting of members The Tonic, Phanatik, T.R.U.-L.I.F.E. and The Ambassador), take their cue from the writer of Hebrews, who tells in chapter 11 about a host of people who faithfully played their role in the story being told by God, and stands to answer the call of the 12th chapter of Hebrews which says, "having such a great cloud of witnesses that have gone before us, let us run the race that is set before us." Sonically, the album brings the hip-hop collective's artistic sound full-circle and takes listeners back to the vibe of the earliest Cross Movement projects. The Cross Movement recently wrapped up a successful national tour promoting the project.

One of the most recognized names in Christian hip-hop, The Cross Movement, based in Philadelphia, Pa., is comprised of four solo artists who share a common interest in communicating the Gospel message through hip-hop music. The Cross Movement has earned a 2005 GRAMMY nomination for Best Rock/Rap Gospel Album of the Year and two GMA Dove Award nominations for Rap Album of the Year in 2003 and 2004, as well as the highest street week scans in the history of Christian hip-hop. The group has been featured in national media including Time Magazine, The Washington Post and The Source Magazine. FEED Magazine, the premier Christian hip-hop magazine, offered four different covers featuring The Cross Movement on its January 2003 issue.

The Cross Movement's HIStory is available on Cross Movement Records and distributed in the CBA market by Provident-Integrity Distribution and by Sony/BMG in the general market. For more information on The Cross Movement and their album HIStory, visit www.crossmovementrecords.com.
