Music Video Monday! (November 5th)

Today's Music video comes from a group that has never before been played on JQ99. I also don't see it hitting the airwaves any time soon either. (Just doesn't fit our format)

Now...it's a little older video, but I wanted to share it because I think it holds some interesting discussion. Today's video features Christian rap artist, "Grits" and the song is called, "Hittin' Curves".

I find it interesting to combine rap and Christianity...and originally at first, I felt it was disrespectful...but after some thought and discussion I now think of it as a tool.

A tool? Yes..a tool. Imagine a young teen who spends their time listening to the terrible messages of mainstream rap music because for some reason that's what they've grown up on. One day that young teen hears a song like the following and realizes that music doesn't need to consist of garbage and negative messages. That they can still get the sound, groove, feel, beat, and music, but with a much more positive message.
I present to you..."Grits: Hittin' Curves" (Click the link for the lyrics)
