To be or not to be a Gospel Rapper

Paul planted..Appollo watered..but God gives the increase

Some of us aяε better suited †o reach the church..others aяε uniquely configured †o reach the streets better..a few can do both effectively.. I guess finding where we belong is part of our life's assignment

Peter may remain in Jerusalem wt the other disciples..but Paul would reach the gentiles..and in doin so..preach a gospel of his own..it would cause controversy and bring disapproval from the jews..but he would bε walking in God's calling for his life

There's a new conciousness in the kingdom now..people aяε breaking out of the old boxes and labels attached †o what they do..call it "Gospel" or whatever..I guess History is just repeating itself..afterall,U can't put new wine in old wineskins..at the same time,it wud bε unfair †o force old wineskines †o accept new wine..

However,in whatever we do,let us bε guided by the Spirit..and let our zeal bε according †o knowledge..and keep the unity of the faith..remembering that in the kingdom,there aяε no lone rangers..

I don't do church music but I'm a part of the church..I boldly carry the scars of Christ's dying upon me..if it alienates me from the crowd..dats fine by me..but it wud draw a few..and I'm content wt that knowin I'm fulfillin purpose..but I'm nt the churchy rapper either..I'm just me..slap any tag u want..I just wanna fulfill purpose..e a passion for the streets but I'm also a model for some in the kingdom..so I guess,I reach the church and the streets at the same time..by reason of what I do on TV,I'm already far removed from the religious garb..I host a secular show..and I'm popular for that..now how gospel is that? ℓ0ℓ..

The Maverix EP wud not bε tagged gospel but inevitably anyone who listens †o it wud know what my convictions aяε from my lyrics..infact,some new joints I've bn cooking up wt Cikk0 aяε so far from what most wud consider 'Religious Music'..but it is what it is..my joy has always been being referred †o as 'That fly rapper who does gospel rap' dat's what gives me joy,bruv..knowing that people acknowledge my skill inspite of how they feel about my message..

I boldly carry the scars of Christ's dying upon me..if it alienates me from the crowd..dats fine by me..but it wud draw a few..and I'm content wt that knowin I'm fulfillin purpose..but I'm nt the churchy rapper either..I'm just me..slap any tag u want..I just wanna fulfill purpose..
