Kris Parker, better known as hip-hop legend KRS-One (which stands
for Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone), left his job at
Warner Bros. to work with 13- to 16-year-old boys at New York City's famous Riverside Church. Riverside's Pathfinderz
ministry and Parker's Temple of Hip-Hop Kulture have joined forces
to help boys stay on the righteous path and discover their strength in
God and in themselves. "I'm delighted that Kris will be
working with us on the Pathfinderz project," said Rev. Mariah
Britton, Riverside's Youth Ministry director. "He's a
devoted Christian and well-studied historian who brings a lot to the
table, onstage and off." Parker also is organizing a youth concert
series called "Spirit Move," celebrating youth who do the
right thing.
