There are many people calling themselves Christians, who believe that at its core Christianity is all about doing good and helping the poor, downtrodden and abused.

Jahaziel, one of the most important UK artists in the history of Christian hip hop, released a statement this week to renounce his Christian faith.
So what is worse than those moments? Answer – when Christian artists, many still popular today, tried to pull off this “new and fancy” style of music.

"Right Derr" is the newest video from Brinson's latest album Until We Meet Again. Brinson takes cartoon form once again (Dreaming) to tell rappers to "Make Better Hits". Better hits to uplift the souls of the listener. "I wanted to take a few basketball references and flip them into a rhyme scheme. Plus, no one is really creating cartoon videos anymore.

That’s according to Pandora CEO Brian McAndrews, whose recent op-ed for Business Insider argues on-demand music destroys the music industry when it’s free all the time.

When my siblings and I were kids, we nicknamed our dad Okuntay (pronounced oh-coon-tay).
That's because dear daddy was so strict we gave him the same name as our headmaster who was definitely the strictest man we knew at that time. (Don't try to debate, my headmaster is stricter than yours :P).
