Bogus.

I don't know about you all, but times ARE changing, and people need to accept the ways now where kids such as Jay Z came in and did what they had to do and have grown smart through it.

Jay Z is probably the smartest rapper out there, he is the male oprah of the "hip hop" scene.

Just listen to some of these current rappers lyrics, they are far worse than some snip of a jay z song backwards, give me a break...they always have to target someone though...

Same with Snoop, look at his life now, and the things he has done, despite his past...I hope nobody agrees with this post that would be very sad..


this is no pastor hes just a typical preacher out for your money just by spreading this type of religious propaganda bullshit and making dumb asses believe that it was God's plan.
Remember it takes nothing to become a preacher thats why its so easy for them to take advantage of religious people just like this guy is doing.

What a load of crap!

I really do not like most hip hop or rap at all. Some is Ok, but in general it's not my style of music, and I find some of it offensive. But it's not the work of The Devil! Come on!

lol hahaha ... haha

Personally I think the devil would have much better taste in music.

Exactly! Don't you think that the devil would try for somthing with a little wider appeal?

If the devil is only targeting fans of Bone Thugz n Harmony, Snoop Dog, and Jay-Z, then the message to me is that I'm pretty much safe and going to heaven, because I can't stand this stuff.

i sommwat agree but i dont feel they're just out for ya money but maybe trying to create lyrics that people can relate too, sometimes kids can be influenced by music and think theyre gansta or somat just cuz they like hiphop but really theyre just supporting theyre big egos, i mean snoop did wats my name, dr.dre did still dre and real slim shady theyre all just rappin about how hardcore they are

Homie, PLEASE. Elvis Presley was the Devil's music at one time... lol.

Take your head out of the sand and understand that art is a response to life. Music is a response to the experience of the musician. I'm happy you have lived a narrow and sheltered life... not everyone has.

Some people grow up surrounded by poverty, sadness, and violence. Do you really expect them to listen to Mozart string quartets, which were commissioned by Austrian monarchs to have played at parties at their palaces, waited on by uniformed footmen and maids, while the poor people starved outside the gates?

Obviously you've never listened to good hip hop with a compassionate ear, or a desire to understand what is actually being conveyed.
Do yourself a favor. Go to the library and borrow a copy of Public Enemy's 'Fear of a Black Planet'. Listen to it. It's an important album politically. Then listen to it again. Write down all the references you hear that you don't know WHAT the fuck they're talking about. For example '911 is a joke'. Google ALL of them. You have now gained some understanding that you did not previously have into the world of that particular group of artists.

See? Open-mindedness is good for ya. That didn't hurt too much. If you feel bad, next time you go see your local spiritual professional, talk to him about it. There's no penance that I'm aware of for enjoying rap music...

I gotta run. There's a really good mix CD in my car that deserves my undivided attention on the way home... It's got Nas, Biggie, John Forte, Outkast, Tribe Called Quest, Masta Killa, Ice Cube, and a bunch of other stuff that's making my skin turn red and sprout goat fur...
