Now if only more secular artists would step up to the plate and share some sound, food for the spirit kind of messages versus poisonous ones that corrode with illusions and encouragement of instant gratification ‘quick and easy’ roads in life….But there is an up and rising holy hip-hop movement in the Christian movement industry that is reaching youth in all corners of the globe~*God Bless your steps~*
