Toledo, OH - “Wealth obtained by fraud will dwindle, but whoever earns it through labor will multiply it.” [Proverbs 13:11]

“Dirty Hands pays homage to those who grew up in humble circumstances and work hard to give their families what they didn’t have growing up.” - Griffin

From the mega church to the trenches, Polished Arrow Music artist Griffin has seen what this life has to offer. At the end of the day, it all falls short of the bigger purpose. That is why Dirty Hands can tell you more about a person’s character than any figure in a checkbook.

Releasing on March 20, 2026, across digital streaming platforms, Dirty Hands by the Ohio-based emcee is an anthem for those who are doing everything for the glory of God (1 Corinthians 10:31). Produced by P.A.’s Tae Lamar and featuring Triune, the record shines a light on the individuals who are putting in work to bless their families.

This instant boom-bap classic is distinguished by the soprano saxophone and flute performances of Dominic Bierenga. The blend of live instrumentation and Lamar’s trademark beats results in a radio-ready record that is sure to be a must-add to playlists curated for hip-hop heads.

Currently based in Toledo, Ohio, Griffin is a hip-hop artist whose origin is deeply rooted in CHH. At the age of 17 he gave his life to Christ and pursued spreading the Gospel through a more hardcore approach. In 2002, he made his debut on the ‘Underground Rise Vol. 1: Sunrise to Sunset’ compilation produced by the L.A.-based Tunnel Rats. He was recruited by Dax Reynosa, of LPG, to become a fulltime member of the Tunnel Rats, making him the youngest member at the time. In 2009 Griffin would release his first solo LP, ‘Samson,’ and while there is much unmentioned through his journey in CHH, much hasn’t changed. It’s still Christ, family, and hip-hop.
