Do you consider it rap?

IP: 6782 8AD9

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?

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

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.
