It seems Christian Hip Hop is finally getting the "recogniton" that many believe it deserves. Trip Lee at 193 with his sophmore release 20/20 and Lecrae debuted at 60 with his 3rd album Rebel, and both projects along with Shai Linne's Storiez hit the top ten in Rap/Hip-Hop iTunes charts Storiez coming in at 11, 20/20 coming in at 4, and Rebel coming in at 3 only behind TI's Paper Trail. I think "Becoming Mainstream" would be the most appropriate theme of the year: Flame received a Grammy nomination with his 4th project Our World Redeemed, Reach Records had two artits hit The Billboard 200. Jordan did get selected to be inducted a couple days ago.Īs we work our way through the last month of the year I believe we can look back and say 2008 was a monumnetal year in Christian Hip Hop. Anybody else seeing "Air Jordan" being the theme song of this years playoffs. The sky seems to be the limit for this recent marriage between Christian Hip Hop and the NBA. DaSouth recently revealed that a Christian rapper would be ministering at half time of an Oklahoma City Thunder game.

Wade on Em" been featured at a Miami Heat game, word recently spread that the Orlando Magic came out to Lecrae and Tedashii's "Go Hard" off Lecrae's top selling Rebel project.Īnd it doesn't stop there. Christian Hip Hop has invaded the National Basketball Association in a big way. Why is this track so significant? Well if you attend a Miami Heat game sometime before their season ends you just might here it at the arena. The most significant of these remakes however, would have to be "Dwayne Wade on Em". This release prompted the rest of the Christian Hip-Hop world to put out some version of K-Drama's hit single ranging form "LeBron James'd on Us" to "Martin Lawrence on Em" to even "Ric Flair on Em". But, just recently there has been a explosion of remixes to this track, those most renowned of which is probably Sho Baraka's "Kobe Bryant" from Sho's new mixtape Barakaology. K-Drama released the single "Air Jordan" off his new album Boom Baptism sometime last fall.

However, this was just the tip of the ice burg. It started with Braille's title track for his most recent album The IV basically becoming the feature song for EA Sports' NBA Live '09 video game. Recently there has seemed to be a marriage coming about between Christian Hip Hop and basketball, specifically the NBA. But the statement holds a great deal of truth in it.
