#music #hiphop #faith
well done for giving a moment for this genre to be seen by more people, very necessary especially nowadays
4REALZ...THANK GOD..💯💯💯
Amazing to finally see some spotlights shined on Christian rap and hip hop! The future of Christian music is around the corner!!!
Bible Rap, not Christian Rap - Bryson Gray (because most Christian Rap is lukewarm nowadays)
Absolutely‼️🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
We need the spotlight on Jesus Christ, not Christian hip hop,..
The world can’t shine a light on Jesus who is the Light
@@ServantStatusMinistries hey ..good reply
This segment was so great to see! Christian hip-hop is one of my favorite genres of music! 💃🏾🎶🙌🏾
That's huge!! Chh having a segment on the today show To God be the glory
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
One of my favorite songs by him "Tell The World"
Now, I'ma tell the world, tell the world, tell 'em
I'ma tell it everywhere I go
Tell the world, tell 'em
Yeah, I'm a billboard
Tell the world, tell 'em
And I'm broadcastin' like a radio
Tell the world, you ought to know. I'm brand new
But today he is called out by Bryson Gray for being lukewarm.
@@DeutscherGospel for not being christian enough or for his views?
Dope song!!!!
Yeah, I also like that song by him and Mali 👍🏾
✝️✝️✝️🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Carson Daly just pushed for more press. Shocked!!! This is wonderful
The today show and good morning america tend to have segments relating to Christianity on various occasions. I feel some of the hosts or producers want to put the spotlight on the positivity that’s out there and not just on all the negative drama that is common everywhere.
Besides lecrae and his reach records, bizzle and the god over money crew are amazing.
Yea this segment coudvle been longer if they left it. Lecrae is the main guy but there’s more in chh too
I just got into Christian hip-hop 2 years ago, and I'm anazed by the artistry
CHH is a needed ministry for today; especially for the youth. Thanks for shining a light on this genre of music! Very positive. Love from Jesus’s Girl and God bless❤️🙏✌️
Love it had the perfect answers at the right time. He's really a humble person.
Yes!!! Christian Hip Hop getting the recognition it deserves! God can use anyone he wants for his glory! smile😃❤
Who else loves the song “Coming In Hot” by Lecrae and Andy Mineo? 🔥🔥🔥
Just like the fajita🔥
🔥🔥🔥💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
It's overrated
@@JH324 What music would you recommend? I’m always down to discover other people’s favorites.
Been rockin' with the homie Lecrae since 2004's "Real Talk."
CHH is so awesome, thanks for reppin' the Arts!
"Hip-Hop is B00ty Shaking. Christian/Holy Hip-Hop is ???" (G. Craige, ExMinistries) - There's a difference between hip hop and rap but most christian rappers don't want to let go of the cultural side of the hip hop persona and just rap.
🔥🔥🔥👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Lecrae has been my favorite artist over the last 15 years!!!
Check out Mouthpi3ce!!! 💯👍👍
I am so pleased to see Christian rap finally getting the recognition that it truly deserves. Kudos to the Today Show for taking time out to talk about this amazing subgenre of hip-hop. God Bless!
Thank you for doing this interview. He is one of the best Christian rappers who walks the talk. Not only positive but honest & true. Hence, this is why I have always watched the Today show for the past 40+ years of my life. Blessings to everyone who is a part of the crew. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you & all your families💝
He’s not just a Christian rapper. He’s a great all around rapper up there with J Cole and Kendrick.
Michael Peace lives in Upstate NY and regularly helps out at Kingdom Bound Christian music festival at Darien Lake each summer (between Buffalo and Rochester)...
Grew up in Binghamton!! I remember Darien Lake!! 😂😂
Thank you for covering a Christian rap artist! I've been following Christian hip-hop for a few years now because my sister stumbled on to it. I wish more news and radio outlets would give them air time.
Hulvey has been on the rise!
YES!
✝️💪🏾
Thank you for posting this video. I didn't know about Christian hip hop and it's good to see it growing in popularity.
Love to see the national media giving attention to Christian rap…and just attention to Christian faith in general!!!
✝️✝️✝️🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Thank you for shining more light on CHH
Lecrae is dope! 👍🏽👍🏽💯
✝️✝️✝️
This man and his work are a blessing. God protect him and keep him and keep giving him strength to ignore the naysayers. CHH is what's needed to bring more of our youth to God.
Cross Movement for anyone who loves the 90s style hip hop
They're still my favorite group in CHH
@@nycChristianChristJohncheck out Mouthpi3ce!! Why rapzilla barely covers him I have no idea!! One of best Christian rappers available!! Has many albums!!! 💯💯
Yes.
Once in a blue, CHH gets a small spot light on the secular platforms/networks. Which is good to introduce the genre to new audiences. But the world much prefers the corrupt hip hop these record companies make sure stays on heavy rotation. Ever since CHH came into my life in early 2k, my life changed for the good and I ain't turning back. For those interested, check out Reach Records roster and artists like Da Truth, Flame, NF, Shai Linne, Hazakim, Bizzle, Dee1, etc...
I know man industries are dark. God got us tho
✝️✝️✝️💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Whoa, named a lot of old heads. They solid Fa sho though.
There's Timothy Brindle, there's Beautiful Eulogy, there's Shai Linne, ya know..options..
This is so legendary!!!! I’m sorry man I’m going crazy right now. Your the reason that I write rhymes probably never knew. Grew up listening to lecrae since I was seven.
GOAT Crae strikes again!
Been listening to Lecrae since 05 when I first heard him at KAA. Other artists to listen to: KB, Hulvey, 1K Phew, and so many others.
I have chosen in my life to convert my music over to god! He has given us the gifts that we have! These vocal instruments to be able to spread the love of Jesus and the positivity that we need as a Christian community vs the rest of the world and the dark music that resides as we know, I am enjoying what I do more then ever and I hope to display that to the world in these upcoming years and chapters of my life! Keep going to all the Christian artist in the world!
"You just gotta' look for it." I've been saying this for year.
This was great! So glad they did this.😊

Love this! ❤
Ayyyyyy! This is so cool to see! CHH is a big deal (no pun intended).
😭😂 it a bigdyl
@@victoriousvicz830 ayyyyyyy!
My guy!!!!!
God bless you all
Gotta love the today show
Lecrae is Mc Lukewarm, he don’t represent CHH. He has dissed the genre time and time again. And if he watches, DJ Vlad interviews, he doesn’t like to answer a tough questions.
True. May God bring him to repentance and raise up Artists with their ear to the mouth and a love for God's work to lift up His people and not the accolades of this world. Satan tempts, but we must be trained to be led only by the Holy Spirit in these last days.
Rapzilla!!!

I didnt realize he was in the music business for that long 😮

Hopefully more artists deconstruct compilations of texts as the "holy, infallible Word of God."
Kevin Max of the mentioned dcTalk did.
Jesus is King!
Go head Pastor Wiley
Have you ever read the lyrics on normal hip hop/rap songs? They are instruction manuals on sin that infect your mind, influence your desires, direct your actions, and eventually change your culture. Music is a powerful tool to influence culture, which can be used for good or evil purposes.
Carson Daley!!!
And Fred Durst
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!
No better Christian hip hop artists than Willie Will, Shai Linne, and Timothy Brindle.
Brindle is dope!!!!
They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world hears
Who are THEY???
🙌🏽
Hip hop, Music, I'm so , For, Christine, For, Rap,
Hip , Hope, Music, I'm, so. HAPPY FOR, HAVE , HIP HOP, CHRISTIAN RAP, MUSIC,
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
No mention of NF 😒
Why would he be mentioned? 😂
😂😂😂 i mean do we really want to make a list? No Monster Tarver, 1k Phew, whatuprpg, KB, Andy Mineo, Trip Lee….should we keep going?
Besides, NF doesn’t make CHH.
🔥 🔥 🔥
🙏🏼🙌🏼🎤
✝️🙌🏽
Oh, sure!
I never believed this day would come but it's Christian Music not Christian Hip Hop. Glory be to God in the highest!!!!!🙏🙆
2 grammys now!!
