Sunday Gospel!-Gospel Rapper Dooney Da Priest
Dooney Da Priest is a Gospel music rapper that has launched a war against the sagging pants trend that is popular in our cities. I can’t say that I agree with the "downlow" references in the song, because I think the look is just a popular fashion statement. I do agree that the trend is not a good one.
There is this junior high school student in my neighborhood that takes his sagging look very serious. He looks very put together otherwise, but to see him struggling to walk with his baggy pants is hilarious to me. It looks like his pants are ready to fall down at any second. Another kid that lives on my block likes the look also, but is respectful enough to get it together when I tell him, "boy, pull your pants up!".
I’m glad that the school my boys go to require them to tuck their shirts in and wear belts. Hopefully the baggy pants fad will be long gone by the time they are old enough to care. Then it’s on to the next fad……….

1. Christian Rap is attracting teens to church in droves. This is a good thing! I like Christian rap because it is reaching an audience that wouldn’t otherwise be reached because of their musical tastes. My son likes it, and I would rather him listen to that than some of the disrespectful rap that is currently on the market. Check out Gospel rap artists such as Trip Lee , LeCrae , Da Truth, T-Bone, and Canton Jones for some great Gospel rap music.~Houston Christian Rap

"I was into rhythm and blues about three months." And I couldn’t get satisfied with that because it wasn’t me. I decided that I didn’t want that, and I dropped that completely. Completely. I do nothing but gospel."-Marie Knight

Trip Lee-20/20
Gospel rapper, Trip Lee, has a new album out entitled “20/20″ which is currently #4 on the Gospel Music Billboard Charts. Black and Reformed Ministries did a great job with reviewing the album so I won’t try to reinvent the wheel. I love all kinds of Gospel music and gospel rappers have the ability to touch those who might not listen to conventional Gospel music.
