Andy 'Rebirth' Pellerano desires for America to center its attention on Jesus
Once a member of the Latin Kings gang, Andy "Rebirth" Pellerano found his salvation after serving a lengthy prison sentence and surviving a near-fatal overdose, leading him to embrace Christianity.
“It was just the wrong influences, listening to the wrong voices, just gravitating to the wrong things and being out there," the Latin Kings gang member–turned–Christian minister told "Jesse Watters Primetime" on Wednesday.
In addition to his ministry, Pellerano is a Christian hip-hop artist who has been nominated twice for the Nola Gospel Award and won the title Nola Gospel Rap Artist of the Year in 2018.
