Shai Linne - Elder Statesman (Official Video)

[@JelaniGNatural]

"When we replace the word with the world, that's when we take an L" BARRRZZZZZZ

[@JullianKirkland]

Shai Linn is perhaps one of the best lyricist that ever lived. I thank God for raising up Shai Linn for His glory.

[@larrywilson2259]

Stephen The Levite as well 🙏🏻💪🏼

[@MrSolomonRing]

Amen to that, bro. My youth leader at the time put me on Shai back in 04'.

[@saint_of_saints]

"the finish line is so close it would be absurd to leave, salvation is nearer now than when we first believed" 😮‍💨🔥🔥🔥💯

[@FromRobNor]

10 years ago I was introduced to CHH and had a distaste for Shai Linne's approach to music. As I've grown, I am blessed by his work. Keep going!

[@Redeemed_by_chr1st]

Same here. Quite frankly I was like dude is corny. But the Lord opened my eyes to the truth he was spitting now I can’t get enough of his music. Glory to God!

[@thewokebreaker]

go listen to his first albums- lyricism is crazy@@Redeemed_by_chr1st

[@MichaelS-br6gc]

@@Redeemed_by_chr1st Yeah he sounded too self-righteous/nursery rhyme-ish... but this is fire.

[@AlexLewisTV]

Completely the opposite of me. I appreciated his high intelligence, his scriptural consistency, his flow, chill delivery and intricate wordplay. I remember when he released ‘The Atonement’, I was like, this guy is the best… Me and one my best friends used to listen to his music and drive around my city and we were so impressed by the contextual relevance and multis he was spittin…

[@thewokebreaker]

"self righteous?" what were you listening to?@@MichaelS-br6gc

[@andrewdowey7759]

“Lord please make me more like Jesus”- then I got betrayed Hits differently.

[@Taterstiltskin]

yeah that hurt, i've been in that exact same place. still working through it, praise the Lord.

[@dubbelkastrull]

That's a genius line.

[@johntobey1558]

Who did he , " get canceled by before. . ." Cancel culture. . .. If Shai is feeling alone. . .isn't Christ himself inside of him. Does the Holy Spirit himself help to prevent this type of lonliness?

[@dubbelkastrull]

@@johntobey1558 Christ himself felt alone on the Cross.

"The fact is rappers be smothering their tunes with swag that's backwards it's gaws to cover up the wounds"

[@vhuawelomakhuvha]

SHEEEEESH! We ain't ready for this album! 🔥

[@MalachiCarter-n1c]

Yeah, that was a bar.

[@JaviLpz116]

In my opinion, Shai Linne is the John Bunyan of the Christian Rap music. Wherever you listen, it is filled with the Bible.

[@jaredwins155]

new track from Shai!? today is a good day. My neighbors will enjoy this all day.

[@RubenAZ-jp5de]

This reminds me of Shai's older stuff, glad to see he still has it!

[@TimothyGPTSanders]

This man always comes out with hits, thank you Shai Linn for keeping true Christian Hip Hop alive 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@lucasmooibroek1171]

“The fact is, rappers be smothering their tunes with swag it’s backwards that’s ‘gaws’ to cover up the wounds” yoooo that wordplay is crazy 🔥

[@unstopology]

"Replace the Word with the World, thats when we take the L", 🔥🔥🔥 & the truth!

[@chantellewarburton2471]

To my American brother in Christ, Shai Linne: thank you for coming back, and for continuing to proclaim Soli Deo Gloria! Thank you also for your beautifully penned book, 'The New Reformation' (it's appropriate that I was reading it this time last year, selfishly hoping your voice would return to CHH). Your book is relevant even for - or perhaps I should say, especially for - us here in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Our fight is indeed against the unseen powers and principalities of this age - BUT, GOD! The Lord bless you, your words, and your ministry. And if you ever visit our beautiful republic, you have a home to stay in Durban. May the Lord preserve you and your faith, amen!

[@neskho]

Thanks for reminding me of Romans 13:11 "wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed." (3:31)

[@NathanJoseph]

"On each page of scripture, pearls for the wise;⁣ Boundless facts to counteract the world and its lies!”⁣ ❤️🔥

[@montywoolfolk]

Now that is 🔥 that saves…

[@reyleal1439]

That swag and gaws line killed it 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@IsaiaMusic]

Thankful for you Shai, you and Lamp Mode were the guys who made me see that I could use my talents to glorify God instead of completely walkin away from music.

[@JeremiahGriffin]

"became the enemy of many just by speaking the truth..." Breaking the silence with the Gospel in postmodern world. Excellent and uplift to my day, thank you!

[@Taterstiltskin]

i wish that's what he was talking about with that line. it's more obviously not the Gospel he's talking about these days.

[@anthonyramos8951]

I’m 41…dis dat boom-bap I grew up wit….yessir. Keep it up Shai

[@JelaniGNatural]

"When rooted in the soil you ain't trippin' over dudes / A loyal few is better than a fickle multitude" OH MAN I'M GLAD THIS DUDE IS BACK

[@kadmielvalcin]

Met Shai Linne at a youth concert in Manhattan back in 2004. I was part of a Christian Rap group then. Him and Timothy Brindle took the stage after us. He was very gracious. This song is very timely. To: Shai- I look forward to more content from you, brother. Thank you for sharing your heart and proclaiming Christ. Be encouraged, brother. Grace be with you and your family.

[@explained4242]

Can’t wait!!!

[@jahcal777]

I’m not a Calvinist, but I have always respected dude. Wish I could hear more about what he mentions in this song about being betrayed by those in his circle. Makes me wonder what happened. Shia has stood true to the gospel and one of the very few I rock with.

[@thebcvbookchapterversepodc7886]

I'm here after watching Tim Brindle's response on Wrath & Grace.

[@simplyserge144]

Same, what are your thoughts Saiko

[@ColossianDyingToSelf]

This is the first song I listened to once it came out pointing to this album. I was disappointed when I heard the lyrics, but when farm talk came out I thought I may have misunderstood this song. But after listening to Brindle, my understanding was correct. If the following lyrics in this song are true, I hope Shai repents of these prior lyrics as he uses verbiage of the "deconstruction" movement. I have a lot of respect for this man, I even named a son after him. I would like to know from him if his wife is the one who may be playing a role in the change since "Still Jesus" as she was the first I saw start posting CRT verbiage and her book seems to be when Shai started to change and ended up writing his book.

[@only4him330]

​@ColossianDyingToSelf The utter insouciance of some "Christians" is disheartening. God forbid that Christ cares about the suffering of ppl who don't look like you or who haven't had the same life experiences as you. Every president put his hand on the Bible and upheld slavery and Jim Crow. Theological institutions forbade Black ppl from attending and White churches collectively prohibited Black ppl from attending. Stop acting like Christ approves of this foolishness. If it wasn't for true Christians speaking out and acting, we'd still be a nation built on racism

[@leandrow216]

Been listening since 7th grade almost 30 now and this music I see now was always a Baraka or blessing

[@alex_jack225]

"Prone to wander, Lord I feel it, please don't let me go astray." 🙏🙏🙏 This is the summary of our human condition. Thank God for His Grace.

[@ConstitutionAcademy]

LET'S GOOO! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Elect116]

Jesus comin' back like fashion trends🤯🤯

[@mikerush9024]

Shai…you are blessed with Scriptural knowledge and the ability to put it to music. We are blessed being able to listen to a rapper that is so Scripturally sound.

[@Rubberglass]

Yooooooooo!

[@aidensexton6038]

Yeah, Shai's back! ❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

[@scottdesmarais9744]

Shai is without question one of the best Lyricist's that ever lived! Such a blessing to have this man's music over all these years 🙏

[@peteryang2067]

When we replace the Word with the world that's when we take a L...Geeeeessshhhh!!!!!

[@joeburgchh]

Still Rapping Yahweh! 🔥💯💯💯💯♥️ Shai Linne

[@angelrestoiii9030]

Shai Linne is back. He is top 5 maybe Top 3 Lyrical CHH artist of all time. "When we replace the word with the world, well, that’s when we take a L" That is one of the hardest lines Ive ever heard in CHH.

[@AriJayp149]

Still my all-time favourite rapper. Beyond words can express the way this song blesses Lord.

[@romelljeremiah]

“I was laying in the cut like neosporin” 🔥🔥🔥

[@AmbassadorofSalem]

My favorite rapper. I love his flow so much. I'm desperately trying to stop listening to worldly rap. It's hard to be a foreigner in a pagan land but to do that in a way that doesn't seem like my nose is in the air. This flow makes it so easy to not listen to that crap. Idk what Father designed me to do outside of be an excellent Dad and Husband. But phew this brother makes me want to do whatever I'm doing excellently. I love you my Eternal Brutha. The fruit the fruit the fruit lol. I respect that you don't drop music often for obvious reasons. This right here? Was a breathe of fresh air though.....don't Andre 3000 us lol please rap sir please rap. Dedication is the best song outside of heaven no hyperbole.

[@alvingomez4083]

I get food in all Shai Linne Songs!!! And Timothy Brindle!!! Lamp Mode digs DEEP! into the Word of God! And sound doctrine.. not just putting words together for clout and thrills. We are truly Blessed to be living in this ERA with Lamp Mode 🔦 🙌

[@DanielRevolt]

SHAI’S BACK

A cypher for the glory of God alone, truly.

[@Nick-zx4gn]

❤ Bring the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and step the mic!!

[@manofthesword7170]

This is fire ! Shai always spits the truth . He Never changed up . I miss the old days so much . To me it feels like chh is more about making catchy music and streams than teaching or telling Jesus . I miss them old days . 13 letter days . Felt like every one drifted away from the message .

[@stephengilbreath840]

HERE WE GO!!

[@JoelCruz-ng4rn]

Stank face on the clumsy jeweler line 🔥

[@Gator344030]

Thanks Shai, with tears I cry “LORD have your way “. I’m nothing without Him.

I have never been more happy to see a song ever. And then to see part 3 of Lyrical Theology is coming got me excited. This song is great!

[@iamjmacdarapper]

Yo shai is back at it with solid lyrics and produced by braille! This is gonna be a banger fr. Also shai had some fire bars in there as well, and he never fails with the multis. Love you brother, you really inspire me!

[@joshuamartinpryce8424]

The king loves His people. The essence of divinity is shared and a supernatural connection.
