Giovanni David Coradin, known by his stage name, Gio Da’ Gift is a Dominican Christian rap artist. Born in Washington Heights area, located in New York City, on March 4th, 1989. He spent most of his toddler years in New York and later relocated to Northern New Jersey with his family.

Inner struggle…

For most of his adolescent years, Giovanni struggled with self-hate and depression. He was confused as to who he was as a person. He struggled with his identity and what he would become in the future. For years, Giovanni had thoughts of suicide and other dark thoughts that consumed his mind.

Strongholds…

As years went by, he had multiple loveless relationships with women he never cared about. This loveless void led Giovanni to watch pornography. Pornography, alcohol, and drugs were used to escape everyday life. Giovanni thought he was worthless, no good, and nothing great would ever come out of him. Not only did Gio struggle, so did his family. Nevertheless, he was able to find grace and mercy when he accepted Jesus as his personal Lord and Savior.

New Creature…

It was at the age of eighteen when Giovanni finally accepted Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior. In July 2011 he linked up with DJ I Rock Jesus and released his first solo mixtape titled “The Cost Mixtape” which received thousands of downloads and was used to bring many to Jesus. 

Now, Gio Da Gift is determined to reach souls that are currently tormented. His passion is to reach the lost souls within this dying world. However, his burden is for those who struggle with pornography, alcohol and drugs. Because of this, his music has made him more relatable with those struggling with the same strongholds as he once did. He’s determined to reach the masses. However, he understands an effective Christian rap artist will not only know how to rap to the masses, but also minister the Word of God. The two should go hand and hand. For when the music stops the Word of God will remain. He knows he can’t be effective in a dying world without knowing God’s Word. Giovanni wants the world to see the love of Christ in him. If you speak with Giovanni, he willfully admits God rescued him from his depravity

Currently…

Gio Da’ Gift is currently working on his first EP called "The Broken State EP." This CD will be released independently and will be available on all digital online stores on March 4th, 2014.
