As a classically trained musician I have never had much of a taste for rap music, heavy metal, etc. However, there is a small group of rap artists of the reformed flavor that have been rising up to bring glory, honor and praise to the Lamb who was worthy to be slain. One of those artists is LeCrae. (They have an upcoming tour.) I also have been impressed especially with a song entitled “Martyrs” by another rap artist named Shai Linne. The lyrics to these men’s rap songs have more gospel in them and more correct theology than most Sunday morning sermons in the typical American church. Here is the music video to LeCrae’s “Don’t Waste Your Life” song. While the musical style may not be everyone’s taste we should rejoice at the young people these artists are reaching with the gospel of Jesus Christ! Amen!
