Former Three 6 Mafia rapper Mr. Del is planning to release Mr. Del Presents Holy South Worldwide, his first official full length project since leaving the hardcore Hip-Hop group and converting to Christianity.

Mr. Del appeared on early Three Six material and now preaches in Memphis, Tennessee, at the City of Refuge Hip-Hop Church. "Worldwide is the introduction to the new move in the music industry," Mr. Del said. "It represents the Spirit of God living in this Hip-Hop generation." Mr. Del, now a Pastor, also heads up the gospel record label, Holy South Records. Until the release of Worldwide, Mr. Del dropped several Gospel themed mixtapes. The concept of the "Holy South" was born when Del dedicated his life to God in April 2000. "The south has always been noted as the dirty south, but we are a people that's chosen by God whom has washed us with his precious blood and now are declared clean," Mr. Del said explaining the meaning behind the label name. "So we are not the dirty south, we're the Holy South."

He aims to make the label the "Christian Warner Brothers" and is preparing several releases from various gospel Hip-Hop groups signed to the label. Mr. Del Presents Holy South Worldwide hits stores today.
