Do you consider it rap?
 

So I got to thinking and pondered
how does the average joe MC feel about
Chrisitan Rap
is it rap?

my 2 cents - i never heard of christian rap (oxymoron?) until my ex put me on it...
i dont go out and buy there albums but some of these guys have lyrics

If you see Fighting Temptations, T-Bone a christian rapper, spits some bars... i was like wow... i had never heard of him, after using the trusty internet i found out he was 'For God'

but the guy who made me look up was John Reuben (yes hes white too) my ex played a song called Do Not... it was ILL.. beat was off the hook lyrics were hot...

So do you guys think its rap?

who said rap had to be bout guns, violence, the hood, money, girls bentleys and velour suits?? honestly i think its a turn for the better. Enuff of all this stupid i got so much money its comin outta my ass bullshit its time for some deeper and more meanigfull lyrics. I mean not only christianity but religious in general.

Yes, it's rap. Just a toned down, non-violent version of what's on the radio and shit nowadays.

Yeah i consider it rap, like what was said before its not all about killing, guns and all that stuff, rap can be about anything really.

christian rap is definitely rap, rap isnt just about violence and shit like that, it can be watever it wants

Yes, it is Hip-Hop.......

listen to Mars ILL lately?

I guess it just shows how extensive rap is now and how hip hop is growing. If a song's got a spiritual message and it's hot I won't knock it.

Yep, Christian Rap is Rap. If it was a nice beat and good flow. The lyrics have to be good to. So yeah, Christian Rap is pretty awsome. They don't need to cuss and shit to be able to spit good.:)

Download some tracks by an emcee who calls himself: The Ambassador

He's better then 90% of anything out right now.

I listen to lots of hip-hop but I don't listen to the christian shit
How many words rhyme with Jesus anyways?

^You need to open up your mind. Download some of the tracks by "The Ambassador" .. $500 says he's better then anything you could throw together.

^lmao, you didn't have to make it personal
I'll download the shit and then I'm gonna take that $500 and buy me a jet ski

Fucking werd to that, exactly what i think...

Lmao @ Jet Ski

If you can buy a jet ski for $500 you better already have a life jacket cuz that piece of shit isnt gonna float, lmao.

rap is rap..

regae is regae..

r&b is r&b..

its the style in which it is sang.
not the lyrics.
