As a plan to awaken Christian youth and young adults to a style of having fun and enjoying God- given life, famed party disc jockey/MC DJ Mr. E and Christian rapper/hype man Sean Olivera are embarking on a multi-city “One Big Party (OBP) Tour” from Florida to California with their trademarked style that includes the catch phrases: “Partying without the buzz,” which refers to partying without being under the influence of drugs or alcohol – as well as “Christians know how to party,” which refutes the idea that Christians are stoic, stick-in-the-muds.

The goal of the tour is to utilize entertainment as a vehicle to encourage youth and young adults to keep Jesus Christ in the mix of every area in their lives, promote unity within churches and expose them to positive and Christ-centered music.

“I want to be able to create a place where people can come out and have fun and they don’t have to worry about compromising their beliefs or compromising their walks,” DJ Mr, E said. “In the summertime lots of kids get into trouble because they’re idle. We offer an environment where kids can come and bring their friends and adults can come and let their hair down. Christians can have just as much fun as the world and even more.”

People from all walks of life and denominations are invited to participate.

“Whether you’re Black, White, Hispanic Caribbean, Baptist Pentecostal, if you’re wearing the banner of Christianity, this is where you ought to be to get a taste of heaven,” DJ Mr. E said.

DJ Mr. E knows how to party and has a heart for ministry. He’s an urban Gospel artist turned party deejay and the Director of Operations for Soul Movement Crew – an inspirational entertainment group based in South Florida that was established in 2003.

He has produced several tours throughout the years, released four Hype Session Mixtapes and was featured in various events throughout the USA, South America and the Caribbean. He has also been the deejay for well known and loved artists like Lecrae, Butta P, Serge, Breyan Isaac, Giel and Michaela Paige – a top 12 contestant of ‘The Voice’

Season Three.

Olivera is a Miami-based Christian rapper & party hype-man who infuses a dynamic blend of old school and new school music into his sets to capture the attention of both the young and old. He is a South Florida representative for the national prayer walk titled “God Belongs in My City” and was a finalist in the 2014 “Battle of the

Praise” talent competition judged by Holy South’s CEO Mr. Del and Grammy and Dove award winning Gospel singer, Vickie Winans.

Luke 15:10 says, “Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”

DJ Mr. E & Olivera are inviting youth and young adult ministries to attend the kickoff party for the tour being held on Friday, April 28 at the IBB Conference Center, 17701 NW 57 Avenue in Miami Gardens.

Doors open at 7 p.m. and admission is $5 per person or free with the purchase of an OBP t-shirt. Visit www.OBPTour.com to purchase a shirt, get involved or get more information.
