Fred Hammond is the son of Mildred Hammond; he was raised with two brothers in a church-going family in a neighborhood where religion and music were very dominant. So, from an early age, he was interested in music, and when he was 17 years old, Fred started to attend bass guitar classes. After he matriculated from high school, he served in the US Army together with friend Michael Jones, and when they discharged, they began their careers in the music industry.

Fred`s music career began in the early 1980s, when he became a member of the gospel group The Winans; however, he left the group, and joined another gospel lineup called The Commissioned, one of the six founding members alongside Keith Staten, Mitchell Jones, Michael Williams and Karl Reid. Their first album came out in 1985, entitled “I’m Going On”, reaching No. 11 on the US Billboard Top Gospel chart, and so encouraging the band to continue working on their music. The second album came out the following year, entitled “Go Tell Somebody”, which reached No. 2 on the US Billboard Top Gospel chart – the sales of the first two albums increased Fred`s net worth by a large margin.

He stayed with the group until 1994, as they releasedsix more albums, including “Will You Be Ready?” (1988), “State of Mind” (1990), “Number 7” (1991), and “Matters Of The Heart” (1994). However, Fred returned to The Commissioned in 2002, releasing two more albums with the group, “The Commissioned Reunion Live”, and “Praise & Worship” (2006), which also added a lot to his net worth. Meantime, he started a solo career, founding a group on his own, entitled Radical For Christ, with which he has released four albums, including “The Spirit of David” (1995), “The Inner Court” (1995) and “Purpose By Design” (2000), all of which have added to his net worth, as the albums have been sold in tens of millions all over the world.

Furthermore, Fred has also released several albums as a solo act. His debut solo release came out in 2001 entitled “In Case You Missed It….And Then Some”, followed by the release of albums such as “Free to Worship” (2006), “Love Unstoppable” (2009), and his latest release “I Will Trust” (2014), increasing further his net worth.

Thanks to his skills, Fred Hammond has won numerous prestigious awards, including a Grammy Award in the category Best Contemporary R&B Gospel Album for “Free To Worship”, and Stellar Awards in the category Male Vocalist of the Year for the work on album “Purpose By Design” by his group Radical For Christ, among others. Speaking about his personal life, Fred Hammond was married to Kim Hammond from 1986 to 2004; they are the parents of two children – one of whom is adopted.
