At the 2019 Elevation Conference, Derek Minor, Chad Horton, and Spechouse formed a panel on the state of Christian Rap. With Justin Sarachik hosting, the panel navigated through topics such as what the genre needs to grow and problems that are currently in front of the genre. Read the first article about the panel here. While the panel focused mainly on the genre, the state of Christian Rap artists entered the conversation quite a bit.

For many years, the Nigerian hip hop scene has not really been what it was expected to be. The music industry in the country has developed but Christian rap has not changed as much. Sadly, the development of CHH isn’t strong. I find it hard in really identifying the present Christian hip hop acts as rappers. Most claim it but in particular embrace the Afro-pop genre. The slow growth of the Christian rap industry is not just an issue that started overnight but has been going on for a long time. Often times, the scene has cried for lack of support […]
At the 2019 Elevation Conference, Derek Minor, Chad Horton, and Spechouse formed a panel on the state of Christian Rap. With Justin Sarachik hosting, the panel navigated through topics such as what the genre needs to grow and problems that are currently in front of the genre. Sarachik started the panel asking, Why doesn’t Christian Rap get radio play on Christian stations? Minor said the main gist is that those who fund the radio stations don’t like Rap. “Most Christian radio stations are built off their donor base,” Minor said. “Usually Rap music is a young person’s genre. Young people […]
I should just write ellipsis because the lyrics of “Hush” by Jackie Hill Perry articulates all that I need to hear and say. I’ve been caught up for a while. From the crisis at the border, to the pangs and violence of racism, to the pro-life/pro-choice debate, to the President – I’ve been feeling it ALL. You have too, right? These things matter. They are real. They are worth caring about. As a Christian, my work is to love and be a help to those society marginalizes. Lately, though I’ve felt like my role is to stand up on Twitter. […]
In a recent tweet, the young Reach Records superstar WHATUPRG pointed out that his last two projects, Pleasant Hill and RAUL were originally intended to tell one unified story. In addition to this revelation, RG went on to indicate that there was, in fact, an alternative tracklist for this combined project. With the premises of each of these works appearing so distinct, to understand the concept of this story, one must decipher who both Raul Garcia is, and who he is becoming. This growth is most evidently displayed in following the narrative of Garcia’s brash alter ego, “Lil Holy.” Pleasant […]
