Detroit, MI - “And it is necessary that the gospel be preached to all nations.” [Mark 13:10]
Polished Arrow Music emcee Rich Colón uses his experience of pastoring a flock in one of America’s toughest cities to showcase the hope the gospel can bring to even the most street-hardened individuals.
“This song is a first-person view of bringing the Gospel to the block.” - Rich Colón
As a pastor whose church is located in Detroit’s inner-city community known as Southwest, Rich Colón has had to learn the nuances of bringing light to the darkness in his particular context. With People Mover, Colón puts his experiences into a record that features multiple “Detroit-defining” elements.
People Mover will hit digital streaming platforms on March 21, 2025. It is a dope, jazz-infused record with a chorus that pays homage to the classic hip-hop film “8 Mile.”
Inspired by Detroit’s downtown transit system staple, the people mover, the song’s production glides through the speakers like a ride through the neighborhoods that exemplify America’s “Motor City.” It is a journey that allows you to see all that life can throw at a person and contrasts it with the joy only found in Christ.
Colón is an artist created in the mold of hip-hop’s premiere lyricists. On People Mover, he effortlessly weaves a personal narrative as he navigates the track like a stroll down his neighborhood sidewalks, allowing listeners to get an over-the-shoulder view of the interactions with the local inhabitants.
For fans of golden-era, boom-bap hip-hop, People Mover is a must-add to your playlist. Be sure to check it out on your favorite music streaming service.

Rich Colón is an emcee who values the art of being an emcee. His formula is simple - dope beats and well-crafted lyrics that pull no punches. While Rich’s delivery is reminiscent of hip-hop’s sharpest, like Black Thought, Big Pun, Nas, or Vinnie Paz, his content is infused with a deeper spiritual dialogue that pulls influences from thinkers like C.S. Lewis and Justo Gonzalez.
