Following his big Stellar win in the Rap/Hip Hop category, Cross Movement Records recording artist, Da’ T.R.U.T.H., exploded at the 24th Annual Stellar Awards telecast with a powerful and groundbreaking remixed live performance of his hit single “That Great Day.” (The original track produced by acclaimed producer J.R. for So Hot Productions featured gospel greats Donnie McClurkin and Tye Tribbett and the remix was created by producer Freddy Washington for this event.)
