There ain't nothing like Hip-Hop Music.

I l-o-v-e Hip-Hop music.  It is my background music, the soundtrack of my life.  I'm not talking about the "sucker emcees" of the new era.  I mean REAL Hip-Hop music.

A friend of mine has introduced me to something I think is the best thing in the WORLD: Christian Hip-Hop.  Now to some, that may sound like an oxymoron but to me it's the Truth.  I spent the weekend with my husband and kids discovering new songs and artists. 

My new discovery has thrust me into a world I have been missing out on!  A world of positive, uplifting music.  I'm tired of the garbage played on the radio (that's why I don't listen to it).

Okay, for all you Hip-Hop heads, this music is FAR from weak.  It's not the cat-in-the-hat, Dr. Seuss rhymes you may associate Christian Hop-Hip with.  No, this music bangs and it bangs HARD.  My favorite artist right now is Lecrae.  His message is strong and he's speaking to those who lived a hard life and those who haven't.  (I will post one of Lecrae's songs in the future.)  But my favorite "amp me up" song would have to be "Streets of Philadelphia" on DJ Official's Entermission CD. 

Warning: This song will make you think it's not speaking the Word.
