HISTORY
Lord Before Us Productions was formed in 1992, with only one thought
in mind- To Be A Non-Profit Organization That Helps Those That Want
To Help Themselves. President/CEO Lamont Bradley was born and raised
around Gospel Music, so why not start a company that would focus on
the Gospel of Jesus Christ. In 1994 they celebrated their second anniversary
and major changes were made. With the addition of Coastal Representatives
throughout major cities in the United States, knowledge of Gospel
artists to visit the Los Angeles area was gained. Doors were open
for Promotions of such Tours as: John P. Kee & New Life, Kirk
Franklin & The Family, Donnie McClurkin, Hezekiah Walker &
L.F.C.C., Fred Hammond & Radicals For Christ, and Yolanda Adams
to name a few.

Tours were set-up for their managed artists as well as non-managed
artists, which brought on more networking for the company in such
cities as Chicago, Las Vegas, New York, Cincinnati, Atlanta, Dallas,
Phoenix, and Northern California. In the summer of 1994 Lord Before
Us attended the Gospel Music Workshop of America held in Atlanta,
GA, and the contacts they made were unbelievable. With connections
being made with representatives from GospoCentric, CGI, AIR, and
Malaco Records, they were asked to become field representatives
for their city; although this was a very big step in their Gospel
careers- but at the time they couldn't see it.
In 1995, they started "The Lord's Notes" Gospel Newsletter;
this newsletter has become one of the most popular information sources
for the Gospel Industry. Offering such topics as: In Your Interest,
What's New?, Artistly Speaking, CD/Video Reviews, Footnotes (Advertisements),
Web Sites, and the very popular Event Reviews. Currently, the Newsletter
is distributed at over 5,000 locations worldwide with a reader base
of more than 10 Million. In the fall of 1995 they decided to let
the proceeds from their Annual Pre-Winter Workshop go to the various
Homeless and AIDS organizations in their community. In February
of 1996 they held the first ever Black History Midnight Musical
in Los Angeles, this event was packed to capacity. In May of 1996
they celebrated their fourth anniversary, and declared that they
would become one of the leading Gospel Production Companies in the
World.

In 1998, international coastal reps were set-up in Europe,
Africa, Canada, Japan, and China with this addition came a greater
need for their Gospel Newsletter and Services. In November 1998,
they were finally able to have their first weeklong Gospel Music
Workshop; which was a great success.
On June 1, 1999 their new web site was placed on the worldwide
web at www.LordBeforeUs.com,
proving that with God all things are possible. In 2005-2006,
Distribution and Promotions became in High Demand, and Lord Before
Us was their to answer the call - adding more than 120 clients to
their list of satisfied customers. In the Spring of 2007 they
launched Lord Before Us Records - for which they spotlight new
talent, as God continues to open doors - That no man can close.
LAVA Ministries (their first Artist) project “This
Is My Story” has been very well received in the Industry, and has
been featured on Two Compilation CD’s (Sickle Cell Disease project
– Light the Load, American Heart Foundation CD project) since it’s
release. In
the Summer of 2007, they launched Lord Before Us Entertainment -
bringing the Gospel to the Small and Big Screens, via LIVE DVD
Recordings and Feature Films.
In 2008, Changes will be
made to advance Lord Before Us to the Next Level: Lord Before Us
Products - featuring Bible Covers, Novelties, Collectibles, Black
Art, and more will be available via our Web Site... Lord Before Us
Records will present a Songwriter’s Symposium in the Fall, as well
as Independent Showcases throughout the year – offering Artists to
connect with various Internet opportunities to Market their
Products; and they will also release 3 more Projects (Joseph James &
the S.V.S. Chorale “The Wait Is Over”, Christopher T. Jones “Just
My Praise”, and an Unsigned Female Artist). The Lord’s Notes (Our
International Newsletter) will only be offered in Print at Various
Conference & Conventions – you may still obtain your copy via
our Web Site. After over a Decade of Service for the Lord, it's no
wonder why they continue to live up to their motto: "If The
Lord Is Before Us, Who Can Be Against Us" Romans 8:31.
