Its music Monday! Here’s a dope tune by JGivens and John Givez. I absolutely love it when christian rappers make music that anybody can listen to.

Church Curmudgeon: I must say,Continue reading “Kendrick Got Robbed at the Grammys”

The Love Club EP and The Gospel – “Bravado”

Nevertheless this artist, who goes by the name “Lorde” has received extensive radio play, especially for her song “Royals.” Lorde, whose real name is Ella Yelich-O’Connor,  is a 16 year old singer-songwriter who combinesContinue reading “The Love Club EP and The Gospel – “Bravado””
