Derek Minor - Dear Mr Christian, ft. Dee-1 & Lecrae (@thederekminor @reachrecords)

[@antoineliles551]

Who else agrees Christian Music is the best?

[@DanielGarcia-wm7dv]

it is ! KZbin trackstarz they got these battles wit secular music. and lucifer was an angel of choir so he got good music but God's is better

[@RealLilVodka]

+Daniel Garcia and what is lucifers music?

[@laquan3661]

+GAMING NOW The contrary

[@Ay-zs5nb]

ME

[@ChrisloveCGO]

100%

[@MultiEMitchell]

"And you wonder while I'm in these streets robbin'? Well, go and get Batman-" Awesome wordplay right there.

[@custersword7746]

I had to read your comment 2 or 3 times and I've heard the song a few times. I have always been a huge fan of word play and still I missed this one. Good catch.

[@galthrampt6476]

I can't seem to get it, but I am curious, can you explain please?

[@r-techzgaming3914]

If you think that was good then. Well can't think of a worthy retort

[@benjaminhelton2437]

Robin is Batman's sidekick.

[@benjaminhelton2437]

yeah...it was...just okay. actually the bulk of the song is good lyrically, but for me, that line was actually corny, haha.

[@cj10109]

This song is so true! Us as Christians do judge and look down on sinners like we have never sinned a day in our life! Don't lie and say you didn't!

[@seanmcclelland2231]

Exactly people need to not be afraid to say that they've sinned, everybody sins every single day in their life

[@sterch_tv]

"For all have sinned and fell short at the glory of God"

[@ALPHAMALE735]

Proof that you don't have to rap about violence, guns, dope, money and girls to have a banging beat. This song is off the chain!!!!

[@suspect3516]

@Burger Tree Pretty sure he means gangster rap, where it's all about the drugs, chicks, and such.

[@CKdaGiftedOne206]

Ironically, it still kinda does but in a different set of lens 💯

[@vladzenchenko7018]

Am I the only one that thinks this is (one of) Dee-1's best verses?

[@tierrarichardson6129]

IKR!!

[@vladzenchenko7018]

After listening to his latest EP and some of his other tracks, I just don't feel like they match up to this verse. His 5 Fingers of death on Sway was decent, too, but I think the content matter in this song is really swaying my vote

[@tierrarichardson6129]

Vlad Zenchenko why

[@mikemike7326]

Vlad Zenchenko I've thought about that too, this verse was sooo good and I feel like often with his other songs I don't feel it much but this one was flames!!

[@jjdavis7471]

By far it is and he has great tracks out but this was........💯💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@davidmaccalla]

“You need me around tho, cause other wise you ain’t got anyone to look down on.” That line hit like a ton of bricks

[@timmckinnon1233]

Why do we as Christians always judge those who live "wasted" or "rotten" lives? Jesus sat and ate with those people!!! I seriously get ticked off with a lotta Christians because they somehow they think they higher than nonbelievers. We haven't done anything as believers! We just simply accepted an unearned gift of eternal life and salvation from Jesus. We ain't no better than each other. STOP LOOKING DOWN ON OTHERS AND SHOW CHRIST-LIKE LOVE!! THAT'S WHY WE'RE STILL HERE! To show God's love to this world and to love - not judge

[@nathannackdal9345]

yo you guys dont even understand how great this song is. if God ever would make a rap song, this would be it

[@gumdrops27]

Rap that tells a story and is real. I've waited so long for this return!

[@BlaugranaEverything]

It's 2022, this song is almost 10 years old and it still bangs.

[@TheBlueFiretruck]

Such a relevant message in today's society.

[@andringilfellon7745]

Thank you that God always listen and come thru

[@victoriamadden8283]

It's good to get a hurting person's perspective cause sometimes judging is easier than loving. But Jesus didn't come to judge, he came to save. I know cause the Bible says so. God Bless

Said it so beautifully 🤝🏽

[@judithsonnnier253]

It's not a religion it's a relationship one on one who created you and knows you...Much-Love.

[@ThePapaDeejay]

I found this song a while ago because my brother showed me it.... it opened my eyes a lot and changed the way I view a lot of things.... like how you should thing about peoples backstory before you assume something.... or even reach out a helping hand to someone who is hurting and maybe even looking for answers themselves... love the song and love what it stands for even more....

[@miranda2011ify]

+DJG62 Same here...

[@judithsonnnier253]

Daily...Forgive us. We all fall short of his glory, we will die a sinner TRUST GOD NOT MAN. I have been there and back again for a second chance to breathe the breath of life.

[@JOHNWALLACE.]

I never took the time for the words. now it's deeper than I thought!

[@journeytojesus]

I can really relate to Derek Minor's personification of a female porn star, and this song is keeping me strong in fight to break the bondage of pornography in my life.

[@Bilbobobpie]

+FisherOfMen It's not easy man, but read your bible as often as you can and pray all the time. Whenever those thoughts or that urge comes on just remember what Christ did for you so that you could escape that slavery you're in. Never stop being thankful, I'm praying for you.

[@journeytojesus]

thanks, I found this music video after I posted that comment called Trip Lee- Fallin

[@goodial]

+FisherOfMen did you also here Trip Lee's All My Love?

[@journeytojesus]

Yes

[@saulgoodman7139]

+FisherOfMen Bruh I have been there and done that. in fact, I still am battling it. Just give it to God and when you get the urge, talk to Him, read His word. Resist the devil and he shall flee!

[@jjdavis7471]

Dee-1 captured me on this song and its also how I found out about him. This song is so raw and 🔥 but so deep of a message of the real 🌎.

[@rossepadilla]

I think this song is what every Christian must hear. Open heart and ears is what the world needs from us. Thanks for this reminder. keep making music like this!

[@RafaelTomasyoyo]

I really gotta change my life. Please pray for me. Just like 30 seconds right now would be amazing! God bless

Goosebumps every single time I listen to this song. Such an amazing message.

[@HoneyLove40]

This song is food for thought Lord help us as your children to love and not judge in Jesus name, Amen

[@Mr1and14orth]

This is fire

[@iisdavidhansen]

this song is so underrated. i’m back after 8 years.

[@seejayb]

Happy to see this hit a million views. Much deserved!

[@matts0688]

Awesome song, he nipped the main problem with Christians in one song. We aren't better than someone who doesn't know God, we're just privileged enough to be shown to him by our parents or friends.

[@Iffmeister]

Though I'm not disputing the video (I get what they mean),here's what many people don't get: Christianity isn't (supposed to be) a religion. Christianity isn't just a relationship. It's a LIFESTYLE. You see, empty religion means you clean up your act on Sundays and Wednesdays, but act like the world every other day. A relationship can have a person who is cheating on the person with someone else. But a lifestyle? That's called Jesus 24/7. Doesn't mean you are praying all day. Doesn't mean you are quoting Bible verses all day. Doesn't mean you are taking communion every hour. Oh no. It means you treat others equally no matter what their race, gender/sexual orientation might be. That's means you don't cuss people out when they do it to you. It means you're the bigger man and walk away when someone picks a fight. It means you love your spouse (if you have one) and don't lust after anyone else. It means you don't steal. Don't kill. Don't lie. It's a lifestyle, not just a relationship, and not just another religion

[@flamemojis]

👌

[@sleeps9464]

yea but remember they're talking from a perspective of a sinner who has heard and is thinking about to give his life to God but really has no clue where to start.

[@Iffmeister]

David Matia Yeah yeah I know

[@kadianedobor1715]

+Kevin Casey good question. I know I'm not perfect and need Jesus. some part of me has to be even more subjected than the day before.

[@seanmcclelland2231]

Wow true

[@Laryxify]

This song should be played out on every church out there looking down on some of us, We all equal before God mayne!

[@Rebel1280]

A hard song to listen to as a christian but its the truth. Just an FYI, this is a song about how some non Christians view Christians, this isn't the view of the rappers trying to justify anything. I believe the life of a christian is to be lived out not be all talk. Sometimes, people just need someone to listen to them and understand them. Its our job to tell them about Christ in a LOVING way, its God job to transform their heart. Strengthen each other and don't cut down or judge. Sounds simple but its often very hard. Especially for the Christian community that is afraid of the hood.

[@Officialanagibson]

agreed

[@jssberry]

I remember when I felt EXACTLY the way the last verse went. I got tired of people beating me up and I felt like all "church folk" were hypocrites. I wanted nothing to do with the church after the way I was treated. But it took God leading me to a church that loved me, were transparent and treated me like family.

[@mikemike7326]

Dee-1's verse was fire!!!

[@CDFoakley]

This is the most raw and real Christian Rap song I've ever heard. Nobody talks about stuff like this. It's sad that some people who grew up Christian realize that some of us who later accept Christ came from a dark past, where our souls were crushed and it takes time to heal and grow in God. It's even harder to heal when you come to God and are faced with years of more pain. But God is good. What was meant to destroy us God will use for good. He can restore all that the Locusts have eaten. Heal all our wounds. Forgive us for our mishaps. Shape us into what He wants us to be and not what the damaged soul inside of us thinks we still are.

[@bovickhugh-mann7597]

Deep...just deep.

[@ARams2002]

Lecrae I trust you! Your music has changed my life for real.

[@Beastinvader]

Something different. I like it!

[@armandoherrera5846]

Anyone else out there feeling convicted after hearing this song. I bet it would be appreciated if we would "take some time to listen" when witnessing to others. So many hurt people out there need to be listened to before they will hear our message. Pray for them and for ourselves brothers and sisters.

[@dhdhddjd8596]

Ironically you need me around though cause otherwise you have nobody else to look down on!!!🤸🏾‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️👌🏾😜

[@calebcassell2051]

Therefore there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus; we MUST stop judging and start loving like Jesus did, this song is a beautiful reminder

[@jellalshadow2318]

Omg this song is so lit!!😩🔥🔥

[@jssberry]

I love this song--and I hope a lot saints can hear this and remember to love, not judge. And for the "sinner" to hear and see that we all start somewhere; don't worry bout "church folk." Come to God as you are and He will lead you the rest of the way, if you let Him.

[@louielocomotive]

This beat is fire I could listen to this all day.

[@billcetta3107]

This is really sad when you listen to the message how people use each other as a means to an end.

[@marisa_rose]

both Derek and Lecrae are going to winter jam 2014 so they could sing this song together and that would make me the happiest person in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@quinlansmall5090]

One of the best Reachrecord songs yet!

[@rpate35]

Deep message - love it! God Bless

[@saintgard]

I think im kinda addicted to this song. Love the message & they all went in. Praise the Lord

[@OHtakes]

Man that opening verse by DM is so deep!

[@vindeada753]

Yet another Banger!!! Calling out the lames who judge the fallen, thank you Mr. Minor, D1, and Crae! Listen to the lyrics brethren, pay attention to what goes on in the lives perishing in your hood or burb or palace...doesn't matter, where you're at or from...all of our hearts are tainted with sin...God saved us ALL...judge not, lest Ye be judged...

[@rubengonzales5374]

this song, if you a Christian, listen up, read the lyrics, of you ain't, listen up, read the lyrics, ain't about judging, most forget to love, they wana throw you.under and judge, how about you love first, help up, lead to the cross, brush up, clean up, and correct, because its true, and only god can judge, tho he may judge through his people at times.

[@marcusmiguel1511]

This song, just wow!! This song is amazing! God can really work through people such as Derek Minor, Dee-1, and Lecrae. What I do when I first listen to a new song, I look up the lyrics. I read them, understand the meaning and then I go about listening to the song! All the Reach Record songs I have listened to mainly focus on how not to be a hypocritical Christian. And that's good. The thing is, I have always been a Christian, but the type of Christian that just goes to church on Sunday. Then I started listening to artists such as Lecrae and I grew so much closer to God! Thank you Lecrae! You not only helped me grow closer to God, you have helped me to grow as the person that God wants me to be. A REAL Christian. Being a true Christian means having a relationship with Jesus Christ, not going to church on Sunday and dressing up all nice. I'm not saying to NOT wear nice clothes and NOT go to church. Just when you do it, do it with an open heart, not what people tell you!

[@elijahsampson8743]

Hope we listen more and judge less. Help us pls Lord...

[@joshcurtiss8071]

This video was shown back when I was in school 🔥

[@odeemariep.7544]

I was wondering when Dee-1 was going to end up collaborating with Lecrae... glad he did 😁

[@shortfrijole11]

This is a good reminder of what we're supposed to do as christians and not do. Man, thanks for letting God you to preach through a song!!

[@samuelpeterson2638]

God is the way the truth and the light, but sometimes we need that relationship with god to have a real self be said or seen.

[@michellefrieler8359]

I really like the song and was touched by it bc unfortunately there are many believers who does not take time to listen to those who are "unreached" and are "lost". But I also know many who do devote their lives to reaching those who grew up in a really tough environment. I was one of them, but because someone had reached out to me, listened and believed in me, I learned who I am in Christ and the freedom it brought in my life and I am now attending the University of my dream.

[@dennisdillabough559]

Love the song but I really would like to hear Mr. Christians response. I am a big fan of God's word being preached through song. I know god spent his time among the sinners in his earthly ministry and that he said that we shouldn't judge people, however we as Christians can judge an action to be either good or evil. I think a whole lot of the mainstream "Christians" think that avoiding those who live in the world of a sinner is a good practice. You cannot be infected by evil if you truly love god and we should all hope to have our feet be those beautiful feet which are dirty from walking the path of our savior. Dirt doesn't always mean sinful but it is also the trademark of a hardworking person. If we lose our selves in the work of the lord our feet may be dirty but they will be beautiful.

[@tiab8310]

In this song they asked you to listen. It seems like you got offended when you listened. I heard their pain in what they went through. You heard excuses. God help you. Jesus didn't need explanations because he already knew they why's. We do not know people backgrounds and we must show compassion which is understanding. Acknowledging what happened can help people heal. How are you going to say "I don't need to hear your excuse just repent and change" that mentality is exactly the reason this song is written.

[@deadserious313]

This song give us the true definition of Christianity. Let's stop judging and LISTEN to bring the lost home!!!

[@davidnnacheta]

Dear, Mr Christian

[@frozenray0079]

dag. this song is REAL. Christians and non-believers need to listen closely to this.

[@DBellAli]

All ima say is that layout is raw. I wish i knew who did that video I would pay them good money.

So dope! The message is do dope! I pray many CHRISTIANS would catch this message. Love folk unconditionally! Love this!

[@BarryMadHatt3r]

this song.. it helped me a lot today.. made me realize how much i take my life for granted.. God works in the most amazing ways!

[@jamesburgess1302]

Dear Mr. Christian, I know your on a mission. I know you say the answer to my problem is religion. I know I'm supposed to change my way and stop sinning, but I'd appreciate if you take some time to listen.

[@Koolminer-my2cp]

Ive listened to this song so many times!! Love it! As Christians we should realize that looking down upon sinners and people we believe are below us is not what we are called to do. Christ calls us to love, treat, and respect those who don't know the Lord because after all we are all sinners! God bless.

[@daniesavage]

dee 1!!!

[@church0in0runescape]

"Truth is ironically you need me around though cause otherwise you got nobody else to look down on" hitting the truth hard there

[@codyyarbrough9514]

I know all the words.

[@theeclassyfratboiii5495]

This song still slaps👏🏽 And shout-out to Derek Minor, even when I was in the "church scene", he was always rapping and talking about real world issues. He wasn't afraid to speak on things and open up discussion. I mean alot of the Reach Records artist's do, don't get me wrong, but the way he did it just hit different✊🏽

[@dennisdillabough559]

Dear Mr. sinner I can not help but see, That the action that you took was not caused by me. I'm sorry that you think That I came out here to Judge, but I really want to say that there's hope in God's Love. If I can help all you have to do is ask, because God said I should help you to try and get passed. All the temptations all the pain and the sorrow, Is going to help you get so much stronger tomorrow. When you give up all the things that cause you so much pain, you will finally know the Lord and be loved once again.

[@FlickR_Official]

It's ok, I think?

[@madisonmelby2074]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@janesarayevo608]

"Dear Mr. sinner"? So you are not a sinner? You are a pure christian that never sin?

[@dennisdillabough559]

I am not. But I am forgiven because I made the choice to follow Christ. As Mr. Sinner is represented in this song it sounds as though he is making excuses for the way he lives by using his circumstances as an excuses. Even Peter the most beloved of Christ's apostles took responsibility for his sinful nature and that is the difference. He took responsibility for his actions. The minute you start placing blame for your sins on others is the time when you start leaning towards the path of the adversary. The truest form of repentance is when you: 1 recognize YOU have sinned, 2 You feel sorry for having committed that sin, 3 You promise God that you will never do it again and 4 You give up that sin to Christ. Then grace kicks in but grace only works when the person receiving it changes their heart and walks in Christ's ways. When you stumble and fall you get back up and you repent and move forward. Don't hold on to the past move forward in Christ. We as Christians do not save but we can facilitate bringing other sinners to Christ who can save but they have to take responsibility for their own sinful actions.

[@dennisdillabough559]

Our mission as Christians is to help those who don't recognize their sin and help them to understand they can be forgiven. Forgiveness can only come through repentance. So we do have resposibilty to go and do not sit and stew. Like Lecrae said in "Send Me" "I'll go" to teach (not preach) those who like me sin and I will show them the way to live forever through Christ.

[@mackfreeman3944]

Wow...I needed that reminder! It's easy to forget where Jesus met me and all that I was tangled in. Thanks D. Minor!

[@TenderCutlet]

There's a good point here, Jesus loves sinners and didn't come to judge - john 3:16,17. There is a lot of junk around even in churches, sad to admit, but what matters more is Jesus and what He did for us, to have life in Him. As long as there are people, there won't be perfection regardless of whose organization your apart of or not. That is, until Scripture is fulfilled. Peace, seek Jesus not religion.

[@tripplesWRLD]

well that's all they're doing in this song as judging others and the word religion just means to practice something I religiously brush my teeth and follow Christ the disciples use the word religion and the book of James that are not offended by it neither should we y'all some lames just following each other and not the Bible

[@jamesroyal8394]

You cannot stop sinning but through Christ, you can lose the desire to sin even though we will sin at some point that is why we we need grace.

[@gregpayne9729]

For all those who dont understand the testamonies are speaking the ones rapping "mr Minor" "Mr Dee1" Mr Lecrae" in case your offended that theyre talking bout you... lol If you are offended then put your foolish pride aside and look at yourself in the mirror cuz every Christian could listen alot more than preaching damnation on someone they have no clue about. God didnt send you to analyze he sent you to evangalize!

[@Konami702]

Actually, we are called to do both....

[@smokedpenguin367]

Konami702 can you link me a Bible verse? I don't think I've ever heard of one, but I'd be glad to be proven wrong :)

[@ProudofJesus]

Cody Burke The Bible does say for us to 'judge' each other, but in love and without bias; most people are incapable of judging each other correctly. Matthew 7:1-5 "Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye."

[@smokedpenguin367]

ProudofJesus I see. Thanks :)

[@wgme86]

ProudofJesus correct me if im wrong but i view judging as pointing out someone w/o owning up to ur own, and expecting that person to change to ur way of thinking, the correct way is to share the Truth in Love & be willing to point that toward the Solution which is Christ

[@amarisdaniels4980]

I absolutely love this song. It's a song that every Christian should listen to and live by!!

[@hanimaniac1]

From the other person's perspective, this is how MOST "Christians" sound like. MOST (not all) just blab about Christ, but don't DO anything to help. Like, for example, one can preach about love all they want; speaking about how God loves us and how He died for us. But, thing is, they didn't SHOW that love. So, this person looks at this Christian and thinks, "What a hypocrite! They say religion and God is the answer, but just look at how they act. They' be judging us by rubbing our sins in our faces!" That's the message I get out of it. Who was it? Who was it that said (and I quote): "Show everyone love; and if you absolutely need to, use words."? Not saying every Christian talks the talk but doesn't walk the walk, I'm just saying that that's probably what they were aiming at. Striving to compel us into thinking and acting and yearning to be like Jesus. 'Cause, honestly, I feel like some people think that if they pick up a Bible, learn a few verses, and do the right thing, that they automatically know God. In simplicity, read Matthew 7:21-23. -HBofAS

BROTHERS and SISTERS in Christ...stop the bickering and focus on God, focus on His Son Jesus, stop allowing the enemy to work through you, stop allowing your sinful nature to take control, you have power over that...we're supposed to stick together, none of us are better than the other, so stop please; in God's word he says (I'm paraphrasing a bit): "How can you say you love me, but don't love your brother(neighbor) whom you see EVERY day, but you have never seen my face....(please think about this, God bless, Jesus' isn't coming back for a bickering bride, so stay focused... #stayprayedup

[@langelogllama2702]

Jesus he is coming back to rapture us! Look they already are making the mark of the beast, it's called the RFID chip and that's may be the whole worlds money currency and also you know the devil likes to put something good in something bad! What there gonna do is when someone doesn't follow there rules they will turn off your chip for a certain time so you can't buy nothing till then so peace will be everywhere around the world!

I was nine years old when daddy first touched me At 15 I ran away and never stopped running I met a man who took me in 'cause I was pretty though He said that you could make some money in my video I get high and drunk just to make it through a show And act like I'm enjoying it but really this is all a show I feel degraded, purity obliterated This is all I know and I really hate it Mr. Minor are you listening? I know that you're a Christian And got computer programs to block me from your vision And every time you watch me you say that I'm the issue Your pastor preaching about how not to let me catch you slipping But maybe I'm a victim, maybe I'm just trapped in the system And next time you pray maybe I might get a mention (please) Before you talk about me remember that I'm lost And your secret pleasure coming at a cost Dear Mr. Christian, I know you're on a mission I know you say the answer to my problem is religion I know I'm supposed to change the way I live and stop sinning But I'd appreciate it if you take some time to listen Dear Mr. Christian Man I'm on that chronic Higher than a comet Sippin' gin and tonic Drinking till I vomit Tatted on my arms, tatted on my face Pants hanging low, nina on my waist I be slanging soft, plus I got that hard Die for my hood, ride for my boulevard I got love for my dogs but never for these girls It's M.O.E. 'cause money rule the world But Mr. Dee-1, I grew up crummy Saw my pops get killed in front of me Saw my momma do dope in front of me Felt like ain't nobody love me Uniform dirty, dressing bummy Went to school they called me ugly Caught the bus they used to jump me God I just prayed to you Sunday Now it's Monday, I'm starving Sip sour milk out of the carton Talk to myself while I'm out walking should I put myself in a coffin? I don't know! All I grew up with was trouble Ain't know no role model, I knew the struggle Excuse me, I don't quite understand you Propaganda and banter and all of this empty chatter And amidst these amens, hallelujahs, and shuckin' jivin' I see a lot of hypocrites and hyper-criticizing Mr. Lecrae my momma sold me up the river for some rocks And daddy told me I was nothing but a problem Now here you come telling me I'm a low down dirty sinner And you got the nerve to wonder why I'm in these streets robbin'? Well go and get batman, and go get back man I don't need to be judged by you and all of your wack friends Ain't gluttony a sin? Why you staring at my gin? Where I'm from we don't pretend We know we ain't gettin' in Now the world don't trust me And these streets done crushed me Thought you were known for love but you just love to judge me Truth is, ironically you need me around though 'Cause otherwise you got nobody else to look down on
