Christian Hip Hop feels like an island without a nation. It’s not a great fit in Gospel or Christian Contemporary. There’s a stigma within Christianity that the act of rapping is hedonism. There’s a stigma within the mainstream that Christian rap is wack. Christianity in America is becoming less popular, at the same time, the believers are screaming louder than ever, growing exponentially more devout. It's as if you're damned if you do, damned if you don't. This week's episode also discusses MC Hammer, Prince, and Kanye West.
