Christian Rap? - 12-14-04, 10:45 AM

Why would anybody want to listen to Christian lyrics in the form of Rap? I don't get it. To me it just doesn't fit. But, if thousands of Christians can worship and get saved by this ahem, music, then hey, tell me, what am I missing here? It just does not sound good in my ears.

Peace!

Your brother in Christ Jesus!

I love christian rap. But I love any music that praises God. It all depends on what you like . Some people like Gospel or u know faster music. I believe any music that worships God is great. It doesnt matter the kind of music. it depends on what u grew up listening too I guesse. for example... theres a guy named T-Bone... hes a christian rap artist. He talks about the end times in his music and everything else about God. Its just a different form of worship .

I praise God in any style of music!

The thing is though is that we have to agree to disagree. Each one of us is different and like different stuff. And thats o.k!

everyone has their own tastes in music... and mine is christian rap. I respect that some of yall dont like it and thats totally fine.

Should we not all have the same "taste" when it comes to worship? If my ears hear this, I may just stop worship God and walk away because the rap is distracting my worship. Is this right? I feel this just limits "everybody" from worship and just allows those who happen to like the style to stay. I don't see "everybody" walk away if we are worshipping during a hymn, gospel, or praise (contemporary rock/ballad). Is it me? If I was Slugger165's age, a teen, or young adult, would my view be different?

I only listen to christian rap on my spare time. When I go to church and were worshiping God, Its not rap. I enjoy it much more when I'm in church. I dont see rap or agree with rap on a sunday morning at church. I guesse what I'm trying to say is that I love slower songs and worship songs. When I'm praising God I love to actually hear the words and worship. But when I'm driving or something like that I like to put on my rap. (christian rap) I'm not completly rap... I listen to a variety of stuff. . I see what your trying to say though Bob. And I agree in a way.

God loves all types of music, and what better way to praise god than in a form of music you enjoy?!. God made us all unique and blessed us with our individuality. And me personally, I don't particularly like certain styles of music but I believe our worship and praise to god is best done when we are truly enjoying the experience and if that is done with christian Rap - fantastic!

Kind regards,
Sarah

Ok, Sisters, you are correct in the fact that Christian Rap, hymns, gospel, and more does not matter in the style as long as we are lifting it up to our Lord Jesus Christ........BUT! I saw an interview on Christian Music a week before I wrote this thread and the person who is a Christian Rap artist was posed the question, "why are you praising God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, yet using the "F" word and other curse words within the same song? His response was (hem and haw) He was trying to justify that this is one way to reach the unbeliever on their level. That only makes me see the discredit of Christian Rap and tarnished that style of music. I would hold the same view if this was done with any other style...............BUT! spicyjoe, what a wonderful brother, he blesses me with this reply, talking about rap........ i and few of my friend are going to rap on christmas. LOLz - spicyjoe!

I know his friends and him will bless others and that softens my heart but this issue still concerns me..Help?

Your brother in Christ Jesus!
