Oscar Rivera, was raised in the inner city of Waterbury, Connecticut, and was taught at an early age how to be a survivor. His method of avoiding the streets and its promises, became the art of Hip Hop. Oscar's energy and passion for the faith makes his approach: inspirational and real-to-life. 
Oscar is a Franciscan University Alumni (10'), and earned his Masters of Arts in Theology with Saint Leo University (15'). He takes his knowledge of the faith and inspires the youth, and young adults of today's culture through his music, talks, retreats, and personal testimony. 

He brings a message of hope in times of despair, love during times of hate, and faithfully follow God, no matter the obstacles.  His life has been devoted to the New Evangelization of the Gospel and his upbeat contemporary approach to the good news has made the message easy to understand, follow, and relate to. 

Christianity is not boring, and Oscar  does not intend to be either.

TESTIMONALS

"There is no question that we need the New Evangelization with new expressions, new methods, and new fervor/ardor in our world today. There is also no question in my mind that Oscar TwoTen is an amazing example of that New Evangelist! His passion for the Lord, his unapologetic embrace of the fullness of the Truth proclaimed by Our Lord's Church, His unique expressions of that Word in his songs and ministry, and his style that speaks to certain hearts which many others may not be able to reach all mix together to make a beautiful explosion for the Gospel of God. I am honored to have such a brother in the Lord and such a fellow soldier on the battlefield for souls. May God continue to bless him and his projects abundantly!!!" - Fr. Louis Merosne, Missionary Priest & Speaker, Haiti

"Oscar TwoTen Rivera is a legitimately talented rapper who takes his Catholic faith seriously. It's one thing to write rhymes and play the part of a faith-based rapper, but it's another when a man like Oscar strives to live the Gospel message and impact young people for Christ in what he says and does. You want Oscar at your event!" - Paul J. Kim, International Speaker and Musician 

“There is no one like Oscar TwoTen Rivera. Put him before a crowd and they will have no choice but to listen and enter in. Oscar brings a flavor and spirit that is so unique and desperately needed in our culture. People need to see someone who is full of life and passionate about faith and a relationship with Christ; Oscar embodies that. His authenticity is tangible in his music and words. He is real, down to earth, talented, and efficacious.” – Megan Mastroianni, Catholic Speaker

"What an amazing man of talent, compassion and authentic conviction! I've known Oscar for almost 15 years and have always been greatly impressed by the fire of his love for our Lord and His Church and his ability to share that with all those he encounters. His has a unique way of using rap and modern culture to bring the ancient truths and sacred mysteries of our catholic faith into his apostolate. As an ordained Catholic Priest, I greatly value the work of this committed lay member of Christ's faithful for understanding his vocation and living it out!" -Priest of the Diocese of Fall River, MA

"Oscar is an amazing speaker. But more importantly, he has a heart for Jesus and the Church. He is faithful to the teachings of the Church and knows how to effectively and engagingly present them to any audience. Bring Oscar to your next event!" - Retreat Testimony

Oscar is incredibly engaging, no matter the age group. I’ve seen him give talks to both middle schoolers and adults, and both groups were equally responsive to his witty and entertaining delivery. He has a unique style which seems to transcend any socioeconomic barriers and his down-to-earth demeanor immediately puts people at ease. I highly recommend Oscar for your next event! You won’t be disappointed. — Religion Coordinator, Catholic School
