	Christian hip hop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Christian hip hop (originally gospel rap, also known as holy hip hop) is a form of hip hop music which uses Christian lyrical themes to express the songwriter's faith.
		Many mainstream hip hop artists have made acknowledgements of faith (including Kanye West, Ma$e, DMX, and Will Smith) but are not typically considered Christian hip hop artists, as the themes of their lyrics do not typically reflect spiritual faith, and often contain content considered blasphemous by some Christians.
		Christian rap and hip hop artists are professed Christians in most cases, and use the fact that they are urban or suburban as a positive issue used to spread their religion, and like all Christian music, it can be experienced as Christian worship.

		Since its inauguration into the lives of those that embrace it, the essence of hip hop has been one of a story line that portrays the struggles and triumphs of the streets.
		Holy hip hop's true roots derive from the heart and not the streets and the image of life known by those who live it which are described as today's poets.
		In that respect, hip hop plays a major role in bringing the Good News to the ‘sight and sound’ generation; it has served as an all-terrain vehicle of the Gospel since the day of its conception in the early 80's.

	WhyHipHop? Campaign (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Unfortunately, many in the Christian community either are not aware of the global influence of Hip-Hop or have written off Hip-Hop as a lost, evil and unredeemable terrain.
		However, there are other Christians who have set their eyes upon Hip-Hop as a precious harvest and missionary field that serves as a prime opportunity to reach today's generation.

		From an artist’s perspective, the self-deemed "Christian hip-hop" or "Holy-hip-hop" label is usually used to show there is a difference in the artist’s lyrics or mindset spiritually.
		I feel that much of the current marketing tactics used in the “Christian hip-hop community” are doing the artists, fans and prospective fans a disservice by choosing not to function on a global scale.
		We as Christians want to show that there is a difference, an alternative, a better way to think and live; it is centered around Christ being Lord of our lives, and Redeemer.
