Sho Baraka's Controversial New LP

Amisho Baraka Lewis B.K.A. Christian rapper Sho Baraka releases his much anticipated CD entitled "The Talented 10th" too much controversy. The controversy comes over a song entitled "Jim Crowe" which makes a bold statement about racism in America. Sho's flow is passionate and his lyrics are aggressive. Where's the controversy you ask? Sho uses the "N" word in his hook. Sho also tackles hip hop's view on women while using the "B" word. In my opinion Sho didn't need to use either word to get his point across, in fact I believe it ruined an otherwise awesome song. Sho's song is an amazing political song, but is it a Christian song? I will let you be the judge of that…click the album below to listen to the song!

Trip Lee's New Album/Book

William Lee Barefield, B.K.A. the Christian rapper Trip Lee is only 25 years old and has just added author to his long list of accomplishments. Trip Lee is signed to Reach Records, under CEO Lecrae. Trip Lee released his 4th studio album entitled "The Good Life", but what is amazing is he also released his first book with the same title. The CD is an amazing testament to how to marry the gospel with a southern swag. Trip Lee is by far my all-time favorite artist and his book is the reason why. Trip is not a rapper but a minister that preaches over hip hop beats. His book is an amazing testament to how age does not equal wisdom. At 25 his book sheds light on the world’s skewed view of the good life. I read the book twice and it has been a blessing to me not only in my walk but also as a tool to add to my arsenal to reach the youth. Trip uses lyrics from his album at the end of every chapter. The c.d. and book are a must have for any young person!
