Bryann T

Bryann T, born Bryann Trejo, is an American Christian hip-hop artist, rapper, songwriter and ministry leader from Texas. Born on July 4, 1980, in Corpus Christi, Texas, he spent part of his childhood in different Texas communities before moving to Chattanooga, Tennessee, at the age of 13. His music is rooted in Christian hip-hop and gospel rap, drawing heavily from his personal testimony, biblical themes and message of redemption.

Before beginning his music career, Trejo experienced years of involvement with street life, gangs and incarceration. His life changed significantly after he turned to Christianity, and that transformation became central to the music and ministry he developed afterward. Through the stage name Bryann T, he has used hip-hop to tell his story of faith, forgiveness and a new direction in life.

Quick Facts

Early Life

Bryann Trejo was born in Corpus Christi, Texas, as one of twin boys. His family moved between several communities in Texas before settling in Chattanooga when he was 13. During his teenage years, he became involved with gangs and criminal activity and spent considerable time in juvenile detention.

His involvement with street life continued into adulthood and eventually resulted in imprisonment. At the age of 23, Trejo faced serious criminal charges connected to an incident involving his twin brother. The charges were eventually reduced, and he served several years in prison before being released on probation.

The experiences of his youth and early adulthood later became an important part of his testimony. Rather than separating his past from his music, Trejo incorporated those experiences into his Christian hip-hop, using them to communicate themes of forgiveness, restoration and faith.

Conversion and Transformation

Trejo’s Christian faith became the foundation for a major change in his life. After leaving prison, he returned to Chattanooga and later moved to Fort Wayne, Indiana, where his twin brother lived.

In 2013, his twin brother was murdered. Trejo has spoken publicly about the tragedy and the decision to respond through forgiveness rather than revenge. The experience became one of the defining elements of his testimony and influenced the message he would carry through his music and ministry.

His songs consequently focus heavily on the Christian message of redemption and the possibility of transformation. Rather than presenting faith as separate from his past, Bryann T frequently draws on his own experiences to communicate with listeners who have faced similar circumstances.

Music Career

Bryann T began releasing music professionally in the mid-2010s. His early work established a style that combined Christian theology with the direct storytelling and rhythms of hip-hop.

His catalogue includes projects such as I Encourage Growth, Same Heart Beat, Set Apart, Now Do You Believe, Carry-On, Live & Grow, Kingdom Psalms 2: Silver, Gold, and Precious Stones, Keep It Kingdom, All Things Kingdom, Saved & Surrendered and Prayer Changes Everything.

His music frequently moves between personal testimony and explicitly biblical material. Songs such as “Teach Me to Number My Days,” “You Are My Portion,” “Middle of My Storm,” “Faith and Love” and “I Will Not” illustrate the devotional and testimonial character of his catalogue.

Kingdom Muzic

A major part of Bryann T’s career has been his work with Kingdom Muzic, a Christian music and ministry organization he founded. The organization was created not simply as a record label but as a network intended to bring together Christian artists and ministries around a shared commitment to faith and discipleship.

Kingdom Muzic has released music from Bryann T and other Christian hip-hop artists, while also supporting ministry initiatives connected to people coming out of street life. The organization has helped make Bryann T’s work part of a wider Christian hip-hop community rather than limiting his career to solo recordings.

His ministry also incorporates discipleship and mentoring, particularly for people seeking to rebuild their lives after involvement with crime, incarceration or street culture.

Musical Style and Message

Bryann T’s music belongs to the Christian hip-hop tradition, but his approach is strongly autobiographical. His lyrics frequently draw on his experiences with incarceration, loss, street culture, family and faith.

His songs emphasize themes including repentance, forgiveness, perseverance, prayer and dependence on God. This combination of personal testimony and explicitly Christian songwriting has allowed him to connect with listeners who identify with difficult life circumstances and with audiences interested in faith-based hip-hop.

His work also frequently features other members of the Kingdom Muzic community and his family, giving many of his projects a collaborative character.
