Jacob and Judas, a Taelor Gray project executive produced by Christon dropped exclusively through Pledge Music with limited time to purchase in 2017. Well now everyone can bump it!
Listen to the full mixtape below!
I stumbled across a mixtape from them called Social x Club – Royale Deluxe (Hosted by DJ Destiny). It features songs from older projects, as well as some unreleased items.
The mixtape is a classic in my mind, from beginning to end. The playfulness of Martymar, the businesslike approach from F.E.R.N. It’s the perfect balance. My favorite song from the album, one I still play

Track-listing:
The idea of Christian rap really only excites a core group of people, and even Christians can be leery of the genre. But Columbus, Ohio’s Taelor Gray isn’t a Christian rapper by genre, he’s a rapper who’s Christian. His latest full-length project, The Love Don’t Last Long, is a very Christian record—he’s a pastor, after all—but it’s accessible enough for listeners of all religious persuasions.
It’s not a very preachy body of work, Gray isn’t really trying to convert anyone. Although there
The title of the first cut on this double CD could describe the project in one word, "Unique." Recording veterans, Sackcloth Fashion put together the basic beats for the whole record and then recruited the best in today's hip hop talent to come into the studio and rap over the rough tracks. The acts picked from the assorted music tracks already laid down by Sackcloth Fashion, then wrote and performed their own rhymes. The pair of brothers that is Sackcloth Fashion took those studio tapes and
So alongside members of Syntax's roster, such as Future Shock, Luke Geraty, etc, they showcase underground favourites such as LA Symphony and new acts such as Science Project and JustMe (formerly Sage of Solseekers).
We get the humourous punchline-filled tracks like "Apples And Oranges" by Chuck Dimes, or the remix of "Somebody Broke Wind" from his Neighbourhood Watch compadre, Nomadic The Journeyman, the deep and emotive cuts such as SintaxTheTerrific (Deepspace 5 member)'s "Dramamine" or L
When news dropped that Mars Ill's sophomore Gotee release would be delayed yet again, hip-hop fans were undoubtedly left disappointed. A lot of fans were eagerly anticipating the release of Pro Pain, so its delay meant that Mars Ill would have several months of dead air to fill before its release. So the problem arises: what does a critically acclaimed hip-hop duo do to appease fans in the months before the release of a highly anticipat
Their independently released Sound Methods 2.0 (a re-release of their 2002 indie project Sound Methods with added bonus tracks) is aptly titled because this project covers a diverse range of musical rhythms and beat patterns. For starters, many of the tracks contain acoustic guitar riffs laid over a smooth and crisp beat.
An introduction from DJ Dust kicks off the album followed by "Chain
In this review, we will discuss some of the topics, sounds and styles that we get from Gemstones on this project.
The first track on this album is titled “Quick Go In,” and that’s exactly what he did. Similar to “Fire In My Heart,” he came with the quick, passionate flow that he has become known for. He does a great job with finding a way to rhyme with almost each word in a bar. For the listener who likes to catch all of the rhymes, you can have a field day with Gemstones. He packs
New Breed —consisting of brother and sister duo Rosario "Macho" Ortega and Elsie Vanclief— shocked the world with their brilliant premiere album, Stop The Music, belting out such trademark hits as the Latin salute, "My People" and the club banger, "Verse of The City" Defying odds, New Breed now drops a second set, Nine, that raises the bar even higher.
These Boston natives emerged on the scene over a fifteen years ago and have remarkably exhaled another collection of incredible music. Bucki
I’m going to be 100 percent real with you. This album is not for every Christian. This is next level Hip Hop that will challenge your mind. It’s like reading a book. If you like swagged out trap music you will be disappointed. I’m just being honest. Talented 10th is Sho Baraka’s first full album since he left Reach Records and became an independant artist and I really feel it’s his best work yet!
Let me give you some background. The phrase "talented tenth" was first used in 1896 by Norther
One thing that we know about Lecrae is that God has given him the ability to make great music. Music that will have you riding with your top down listening to some Jesus music. Or you will be bouncing, throwing your hands up, quoting you are a “F-A-N-A-T-I-C”. Now as the Reach Records roster, ministry, and music catalog widens, Lecrae comes to further push the cross of Christ with this new CD.
The strongest messages on Rebel comes from the many stories within it. Take “Identity” for example,
If you’re reading this album review, one of two things are probably going through your mind right now. Either you’re hype because you are already a fan of Alert312, or you have no idea who or what Alert312 is. If you fall in the category of the latter, then you are exactly where I was about a week ago. If that is you, I’m glad you’re reading because it’s time that you meet Humble Beasts’ best kept secret.
The duo from Chicago have been with Humble Beast for a few years now and they already ha
