Don’t Wake Me Up

Exciting, life of the party, and determined, these words are used to describe Obed-Edom also known as Derrell Lamont Porter. He is a proud native of Baltimore, Maryland, a devoted youngest of three siblings and talented young man.  As Porter, spoke passionately about his life and aspirations you could see the sparkle in his eyes and ambition to achieve something special out of life. 
Things changed for Porter and his family in 1998, when Porter and his family moved to Virginia. “We were experiencing a new beginning” Porter responds as he refers to his childhood.  By the age of 14, he began writing music; when he reached the age of 16, he expanded and became a Gospel Rapper.
Porter helped form a gospel rap band, A.P.O.S.T.L.E. (Always Praising Our Savior to Live Eternally).  Since the formation of the group, A.P.O.S.T.L.E., Porter has performed hundreds of shows. He's played a vital role in the band where he wrote, engineered and produced the music.  After a while, he started to perform under the stage name “Obed-Edom.”  Obed-Edom means "Servant of God;" and in the Bible, Obed-Edom was very musically inclined.  As the year 2011 was starting to come to a close, Obed-Edom had made an important decision; he decided to become a solo artist.
Obed-Edom finished college with his Bachelors Degree in Mass Communications at Virginia State University.  Obed-Edom prefers to be on television more than radio because he wants his personality to visually be expressed to the world. He is a member of Iota Phi Theta Fraternity Inc. and P.A.N.I.C. 2000 (People Against Negativity Inspiring Creativity), where he is a Gospel Rap Artist. He continued his love for sports by playing recreational basketball and also becoming a team member of the VSU Soccer Club.  He joined the United Campus Ministries Avodah; a Campus Ministries Choir that performs at the school’s services and throughout the city of Petersburg, VA.  
He made his acting debut at Virginia State University in Trav-e-logue with Babs & Kitty (2011), as a bartender and waiter.  He has not only performed in school performances, but has also performed in church plays such as “Speak to My Heart".  Hopefully, he plans to continue his acting as time progresses.
