About the CD Album Be Free

Birthed from a time in Solomon's life when he felt like he was in bondage, Be Free is a project that allowed Solomon to believe again in the impossible.  Cross says, "I lived life like I was never going to realize my dreams and passions. I believed that I would be in bondage to this way of thinking forever." A dramatic change happened when God inspired Solomon to write music that would lead him out of his doubt and into a new season of joy and fulfillment.   


A compilation of original compositions that embody the theme of liberty and perseverance, Be Free is all about fighting for who you are. With a driving back beat and words that motivate the least inspired, this album conveys a sense of urgency to just go for your God given passion. Solomon's classically influenced voice combines unique contemporary christian arrangements with varying styles. Ranging from contemporary gospel to jazz, this album seeks to encourage those who are in desperate need to find out who they are in Christ. At times meditative, these songs are mere reflections of Solomon's personal journey through a tough season of uncertainty.
