Why is Christian Rap Growing So Fast?

[@LukeHopp]

Forrest is in an incredible run rn

[@sam-hutch]

That Warner link doing work for the young man

[@MrG__2]

His music crosses genres and touches a TON of ears. My parents and my kids can wap to his jawns

[@ExSpheriment]

frrr

[@NoahJaminee]

I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me ❤

[@Jbayz]

@@MrG__2 you mean panders to whites? lol

[@Hillkicks]

We just can’t lose our focus on what matters, not the money, fame, people, but Jesus.

[@officialmrsilvrr]

AMEN!!!!!! JESUS CHRIST IS LAND KING OF ALL!!!!!!

[@EmmanO12345]

Seeing this genre evolve is so exciting I can't imagine what it'll be like in a few years

[@Neemz_Music]

fire

[@kalu8652]

I think the Forrest / CHH collabs are definitely a symbiotic relationship. When he first started dropping with Hulvey, Hulvey was the bigger artist. He gets a lot of fire features from CHH artists that help him out as well

[@DavidLivick]

Yeah, was more of a joke that stimulus package line lol, I think it benefits both.

[@ronomgenuff]

Yeah I wasnt really feeling Forrest until I heard his feature with Caleb Gordon.

[@never_separated]

I agree. I love where the space is going and these 4 things are only going up God willing!

[@Neemz_Music]

Glad to see the evolution of our genre .. futures gonna be 🔥

[@Stewfou]

I love Nobigdyl having two albums up right here 😂👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 4:24

[@henrywoodall8006]

4:26 imo, 350 had one of the best projects of the year and is worth a mention. great video!

[@malakaimartin543]

Yeah 350s project is my favorite album this year

[@FaithfullyFishingForFacts]

My faves of this year: Nobigdyl-renaissance 1k phew-let go let god (anthem) Nobigdyl- leave it to god Kb-too god part 2 Hulvey- alter Forest Frank- your ways better And more, this year was heat!

[@Jbayz]

wheres torey? That entire album is the best album of this year and 2024 was fire

[@leonisaacs3512]

My man back with the consistency

[@okaywarren]

i’d love an in depth video on the music production journey or outlook for CHH. Great video still!

[@serge.mp3]

All The Time is such an underrated song

[@Garrett.t.n]

Frr. I’ve listened to it to relax before bed countless times🤣

[@XavierBell-k9f]

Cyfe ii had one of the best CHH albums IF NOT one of the best albums of 2024

[@iteli]

Keep making these brother. I saw you commented on a video of a dude dogging on Christian Rap and calling it corny. This is nice to watch after that

[@DavidLivick]

Appreciate it!

[@McNab-p2g]

My top ten songs: 1. WHAT SHALL IT PROFIT? - Torey D’Shaun, 3700Nesso 2. Yesterday - 1k phew 3. Pink - Lengz 4. STOP IT - Torey D’Shaun 5. Champion - Definitely D 6. 4am in belize - Red Tips 7. Destiny - Aklesso, Torey D’Shaun 8. In Your Way - Alex Jean 9. Die For The Party - Lecrae 10. Buzzin’ - nobigdyl.

[@Jbayz]

Just say the entire Torey album and be done with it. It clears all of this other stuff except maybe nobigdyl...but still.

[@McNab-p2g]

@ cap, listen to those other songs and you’ll realise they’re better. Torey is good but chill out w the glazing

[@anaisabessolo714]

What shall it profit.❤️😔👏🏾

[@CJDavis-js7mr]

Love your channel bro! Super insightful and kingdom-focused!

[@DMarrettTV]

Swoope - "we go on "c landed as a favorite all time for me

[@prestonlawrence6364]

Scottie Wop "Lullabies" is my album of the year

[@hacky4president]

Nobigdyl the people we became reimagined is way better

[@prestonlawrence6364]

@hacky4president good album... But it's not MY album of the year

[@spiderman9665]

Oh yea. Just about every song was firee. Production, cadences, lyrics. I really hope Scootie Wop keeps doin what he’s doin.

[@nellybird6479]

Scottie Wop been doing his thing this year, underrated fosho

[@Charles-qx8mw]

Yeah you know ball

[@CJEDI7TV]

Looooove this bro! Thanks for piecing this together! Now i for more music to listen to

[@saltandlightministry1]

the identity part is key i am concerned with how many Christian artist are comfortable cussing, talking about their woman in sexual ways, flexing chains and just generally talking about the faith less. I think there needs to be a recognition that part of the reason chh is seen or has been seen as corny is the message(lyrics) but that message cannot be compromised

[@brooksrichardson]

Which Christian artists are comfortable like that?

[@saltandlightministry1]

@@brooksrichardson cussing would be someone like Kaleb Mitchell. the woman part is a number of guys honestly and the flexing also a number of guys. My thing is that I don't think every song has to be the same i'm okay with people talking about life and being vulnerable but my thing is like okay if your going to talk about other stuff what is it like what is filling the gap so to speak and if its nothing edifying then i think that's not nurturing your platform well

[@brooksrichardson]

gotcha I totally agree with all your saying I was just curious on who was showing those values so I can be on the watch for that. Thank you for your thoughts.

[@James_follows_Christ]

@@saltandlightministry1what did Jesus say (paraphrasing ) “out of the heart proceeds evil thoughts.”- whatever is on the inside is gonna come out. It’s one thing if you’re a baby in Christ and the LORD is working on you & it’s another thing when you just say you’re Christian ,but act worldly.

[@JackofCubes]

@saltandlightministry1 named one artist😭

[@enchieboy]

Jon's single's this year are absolutely ridiculous in quality -- looking forward to a hopefully upcoming album

[@Jbayz]

Wit it would be better if it wasn't a "diss track"

[@anaisabessolo714]

Ils ont vraiment fait du bon boulot cette année. Tout pour la gloire de Jésus. Merci pour ton travail de qualité. Blessings from France.😊

[@LeviSchenk-lk3qg]

Dude your videos are so good! Love watching them

[@Morelikejonas99]

The people we became was my most listened to album 💿 on Spotify wrapped. And check out the homie by the name of Cyfe II. His album has amazing storytelling that’ll keep you listening from start to finish.

My brother you have great taste

[@bwoodsjr]

Amazing vid! Great points

[@diiamnds]

Really great video!!

[@memuno6281]

God analysis!! The new guys moving up really knows marketing and godly representation (for now). Division within the new group can definitely undo all the progress happening. Everyone needs to stay on the gospel mission even though they express there music differently. Your top 10 lists looks good too.

[@bryanhernandez964]

My top ten: The answer-Mission,Caleb Gordon Get into it-Definitely D NLT-yvngxzaye!,aftrthght Die for the season-Lecrea No shame-aftrthght Left the light on-350,Marty,nobigdyl The day I arrived-Nobigdyl We just wanna be loved

Glad practice got put on there. JHP doesn't get the love she deserves.

[@lifejohnson-m7c]

Love your channel bro, new fan. Do you report or reflect on up coming gospel artists as well?

[@DavidLivick]

Mostly just Christian Rap, But I might start going a little broader content wise.

[@clearyx]

Dude you gotta make a spotify playlist. Thanks for that top 10 list

[@shoptalkconvo-mak1471]

Thanks for exposing these artist to me

[@datboi_ri]

S/o Vennisay, bro has been dropping banger after banger consistently

[@blessingtirivepi]

My top eight for 2024 in no particular order 1. SCARED 2 DEATH- DJ Mykael &1995 (feat Gavin the HotRod & Selah the Corner) 2. CHRISTIAN'S SONG- Torey D'Shaun 3. Miracles- Hulvey 4. GOD IS GOOD- Caleb Gordon & Forrest Frank 5. On the radar freestyle - nobigdyl 6. I Need Faith - Alex Jean 7. TR!BE ON THE MOVE- DJ Mykael, 1995 & indie tribe 8. MANDATORY- indie tribe

[@Unknown2Yoo]

Speaking of collabs, I thought it was a pretty good step when Adrion Butler ended up on Kyle Beats cypher along with I think two other Christian rappers. Speaks to the talent that's filling the genre.

[@Konarali]

Hyper Fenton was on absolute fire this year.

[@Unknown2Yoo]

I feel like I'm the only one who listens to Hyper Fenton sometimes 😭

[@Konarali]

@Unknown2Yoo I know the feeling, he's like a niche in a niche so I don't ever hear anyone talk about him and yet for those he reaches I'm confident they are very blessed by his work.

[@markyoung695]

So many great projects. As fans we all ate good this year. I'm excited for what's to come. And David keep em coming you're doing a great job as well. Someone earlier mentioned 350. He's on a good run as well. I love your top 10 picks though.

[@Iusedtojustbesomebody]

A friendly reminder to all to get a Bible reading schedule in order for Jan 1st. I'm going to try following one next year too.

[@3toinsanity]

indie tribe's L O W B L O W is a GAS album and deserves a listen.

[@DavidLivick]

‘ACT’ is phenomenal

[@nathanielthomas9178]

1k’s let go let god remix ep went crazy

[@MakaelaCGood]

I start every single morning with the Child of God (Deluxe) album 🙏🏼

[@Nivekboi]

since Discovering Him just over a year ago, Forrest has easily climbed up on my "favorite artists" list and man is a legend, He is a huge name in his industry, His music is good and I'm so hyped to see him on tour. (also his album "Child of God" Is straight 🔥🔥 and the deluxe is great too)

[@chelseasimmons05]

💯 🎉 God bless them In Jesus Name Amen 🙏 ❤

[@HypeHax]

This is gonna be a crazy comparison but stay with me! Forrest frank is the Christian version of Drake in a way. For instance Drake at his best collabs with other artists and lets them kinda take over the song and he just adds to it! It sounds more like the artist featuring but Drake just makes it better. Forrest as done the same thing. The nobigdyl feature sounds like a nobigdyl song not a Forrest song. Same with the Caleb’s Gordon and Torrey song. Forest just enhances it and helps get it out there. It’s so great for CHH and Forrest honestly ! Love what’s happening right now

[@micellaragua]

All the time was my most listened song on Spotify

What about Spread the Opps by Leacrae???

[@leonisaacs3512]

NK 4 tuff 🔥

[@Noski3]

MTM Isaiah is truly anointed. He gives the glory to God in his songs and uplifts his name to the truest level. It’s not about him when he raps it’s about the Lord our God, Christ Jesus. That’s the difference between him and these other Christian rappers.

[@Noski3]

I really thought I liked Christian rap when I heard hulvey, KB, lecrae, torey, Caleb, forest, dkg kie, nobigdyl, and guys like them but when I heard MTM Isaiah I knew he was different. and other honorable mentions such as Young C. Great men of God truly uplifting the Father and the Kingdom

[@Mule-chezedek]

Christian rap has made incredible leaps. The quality has gotten so much better. As a kid I never thought I'd be listening to Christian rap like I am now🙏

[@cheesestickfanatic]

You should check out swaizy he has a lot of potential

[@josiahjames6873]

Notre Dame by Heaven on Earth was one of my favorite sounds by a CHH group this year

[@victoriousvicz830]

The song and album came out last year but still good

[@raphaelvalerio-nunez5168]

You sleeping on the man Gawvi, his album was top 5 of the year 🔥!

[@jjj0026]

I don’t mind an artists saying DAMN here and if if it’s a story you’re telling. For example, ANDY MINEO new project he says damn on a couple of songs. Andy Mineo is older now so his music is more PG-13, not rated G. Also think Andy is more aware of his audience now ( Secular people who believe in GOD but acknowledge they don’t have it together yet and rough around the edges). So a cuss word is nothing to that audience. I love the different and unique styles of artists now. They’re not monolithic. And THANK GOD they’re no longer corny. 😂

[@c2creates0]

Kijan Boone has some of the toughest Christian music!🔥😮‍💨

[@Fernando-rp6rm]

Sevin came back from retirement and a new album dropping in January 🔥

[@prestonlawrence6364]

[@WCS_GodF4th3r]

I swear Christian rap went from “boy been a Christian for quite a few years” ahh bars to NoBigDyl, Andy Mineo, and an improved Lecrae w the “church clothes” series this has been going great recently

[@asabaal]

I'm a queer Christian artist new to the space. Some hip hop, some other genres. CHH has gotta learn to work with folks like me if we're gonna continue soaring!

[@Iusedtojustbesomebody]

I'm still plagued with original meanings of words, so when I see queer, I think of peculiar, and it led me to some Scripture I wanted to share with you. 1 Peter 2:9 here's the KJV But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;
