Billy Dorsey has credit a songwriter/vocal arranger/engineer on Lecrae’s best-selling album Rehab: The Overdose, which was nominated for Best Rap/Hip Hop Album of the Year. Dorsey worked on the album with JayTel (additional vocals), John "CheeseBeats" Williams (writer/producer), and Lecrae (writer). “I immediately began praising God and shedding tears...look, I know that it's not a WIN (yet, prayerfully), but to be nominated for the biggest Christian award IS a win in my book,” Dorsey wrote about receiving the nomination on his personal blog, Impeccable Grind, Unstoppable Dreams. “And after all the events of the past few years, and the decade of grinding that JayTel and I went thru to get to the success...I guess it was all just bottled up waiting to come out. The Stellar Award win last month brought elation; this nomination brought true joy to my heart. I have devoted much of my childhood and pretty much all of my adult life to music, because music was my first love, and my gift. For God to bless JayTel and I to have achieved what we've achieved is the icing on the cake.” Atlanta will host the Dove Awards for a second time at the Fox Theatre on April 19, 2012, following a sold-out show in 2011 hosted by Sherri Shepherd which aired on the Gospel Music Channel and garnered 1.5 million viewers.

Billy Dorsey Media Kit page 3 About Billy Stellar Award winning, Dove Award nominated songwriter and producer Billy Dorsey has already achieved more in his young life than most musicians dream possible. As a songwriter/vocal arranger/engineer for the Christian Hip Hop artist Lecrae (2012 Dove Award Nominee for Artist of the Year), Billy began his chart run of major success with his work on the international (#1 UK, #1 AUS, #1 JAP iTunes, #1 US overall and #1 HipHop iTunes Album Chart, US, #1 Billboard Gospel Chart, #1 Billboard Christian Chart, #5 Billboard Hip Hop Chart, #15 Billboard 200 Albums Chart) best-selling album Rehab: The Overdose, which went on to win the 2012 Stellar Award for Best Rap/Hip Hop Album of the Year, and has now garnered the Dove Award nomination for the same category. With his work on albums dropping in 2012 by Maino (Atlantic Records, wrote the song “Unstoppable” from Maino’s sophomore album The Day After Tomorrow dropping Feb 28, 2012), Day26 (Atlantic Records, wrote “Window Shopper”, “Killin’ Me”, and “Need To Know” from the group’s third album A New Day”), 2 Chainz (Def Jam) and others, his chart success doesn’t look to be slowing down any time soon. Born Billy Lee Dorsey, Jr, in Blythesville, Arkansa on February 28, 1978, Billy D began his musical journey using the world’s oldest instrument, his voice. He grew up in a variety of churches singing for the Lord, from Maranatha Faith Center in Columbus, MS to his father’s church, Bridge of Hope Ministries in Bossier City, LA, always striving to be the best singer he could be, in the vein of his musical heroes Fred Hammond & Marvin Sapp (formerly of Commissioned), K-Ci Hailey (from Jodeci), and John P. Kee. Before long, Billy earned a full musical scholarship to Louisiana Tech University in Ruston, LA to pursue his dream of becoming a professional vocalist. But God had other plans… During Billy’s third year in college, the Mississippi Mass Choir came to perform at LA Tech, and Billy’s gospel group, Serenity, was called upon to be the opening act for the concert. By the end of the performance, the group was approached with the opportunity to sign a professional recording contract and move to Houston to begin work in earnest on their debut album. But, as often happens in the music industry, the deal took a turn, which led to the contract being locked out and Billy being unable to sing on recordings for 7 years. During this time, he began using songwriting and music production as a creative outlet. “Switching my focus from singing to writing and producing was the best decision I ever made,” said Billy. Billy Dorsey Media Kit page 4 About Billy, continued After years of producing local talent in Houston such as Killa Kyleon (from Slim Thug’s Boss Hogg Outlaws), Lil KeKe, Hawk, and a host of other prominent Houston artists, Billy and his production team LifeLine were discovered by Nick Velo, an A&R for Jonathan “J.R.” Rotem’s boutique label Beluga Heights, home to multi-platinum artists such as Sean Kingston (“Fire On The Dancefloor”), Iyaz (“Replay”), and Jason DeRulo (“Whatcha Say”, “Riding Solo”). Within the first month of their first visit to Beverly Hills to work with J.R., Billy was doing songs for major artists such as T.I. and B.o.B. (“Not Lost”) and Plies (“Runway”), and began networking with many other top tier producers and writers around the globe. “Working with J.R. gave me the resume I needed to be able to work with anyone else in the industry. It was the “keys to the kingdom”, so to speak,” he said. One such producer, John “CheeseBeats” Williams, was already a multiplatinum producer who’d done work with artists such as Cherish (“Do It To It”), Yung Joc (“Coffee Shop”), and Jagged Edge (“Good Luck Charm”), but who was then working with a burgeoning label, Reach Records, and an artist who was then on the verge or breakout success, Lecrae, who had seen his previous album, Rehab, hit #1 on the Billboard Gospel and Christian charts and been nominated for a Dove Award. “Cheese” reached out to Billy to invite him to contribute to a song called “Strung Out” on Lecrae’s follow up album, Rehab: The Overdose. That contribution and the album from which it spawned went on to make Billboard history, as Lecrae became the first Christian Hip Hop artist in history to simultaneously hold the #1 and #2 spots on any Billboard chart when Overdose hit #1 and the original Rehab album re-ascended to #2 on the Billboard Gospel Chart the week of Jan 28, 2011. The Rehab: The Overdose album then went on to win the 2012 Stellar Award for Rap/Hip Hop Album of the Year, and to be nominated for the 2012 Dove Award for Rap/Hip Hop Album of the Year as well. With this success, Billy has been on the move constantly, working now on records with Cheese for the follow up to Rehab: The Overdose, and other artists under the Reach Records banner, as well as writing and producing pop records for multi-platinum Russian pop star Sasha Gradiva, Ken Christopher, and working on Pretty Ricky, 2 Chainz, and Roscoe Dash’s new albums as well. With a production focus on hard, edgy drums and rhythms and a lyrical focus on creative, witty, and introspective hooks and concepts, Billy will continue to break new ground as he continues to write and produce new music; music that is timely, unique, and impeccable.

  • Media Coverage Supporting Bottled Water on College Campuses
    College Campus Toolkit Third Party Letters to the Editor Letters to the Editor & Articles Supporting Bottled Water The articles and letters below present arguments and positions in support of bottled water. They were published in newspapers and magazines and were not written by IBWA. These articles and letters provide some good examples of potential talking points and arguments, including the importance of consumer choice and the availability of healthy beverage options. College Campus Ban Related Campus Times: “Questioning the bottle ban” February 21, 2013 http://www.campustimes.org/2013/02/21/questioning-the-bottle-ban/ Roughly 16 universities across the United States and Canada have banned the sale of bottled water on their campuses, according to the “Ban the Bottle” campaign website. Team Green is hoping to add UR to that list. The on-campus discussion has focused mainly on whether bottled or tap water is better, with Team Green conducting taste tests and some student surveys. Unfortunately, that is not the real issue at hand. The real debate is about whether or not banning all bottled water sales is the right decision for this campus. It’s not. Environmentally, it would seem that banning all bottled water would reduce waste, but there are unseen consequences. First, it takes much more energy to make reusable water bottles than it does to make recyclable plastic water bottles. A 1994 article in “Environmental Management” demonstrated that you would need to use a standard, reusable plastic cup over 200 times in order for its energy impact — including dish washing — to be less than that of foam cups.

Talented artists representing a vast array of religious groups in America express their religion through popular music styles. Christian Rock, Jewish Reggae and Muslim Hip-Hop are not anomalies; rather they are indicative of a larger subculture of radio-ready religious music. This pop music has a purpose but it is not a singular purpose. This music might enhance the worship experience, provide a wholesome alternative to the unsavory choices provided by secular artists, infiltrate the mainstream culture with a positive message, raise the level of musicianship in the religious subculture or appeal to a religious audience despite origins in the secular world.
