5.0 out of 5 stars Holy Hip Hop hits the spot!, April 28, 2005

"Holy Hip Hop: Taking the Gospel to the Streets" is a definite must for any Christian rap fan, either a veteran fan of the genre or a beginning rookie listener. This compilation has some flavor from other types of music (R&B, reggae and definitely rap). Produced by Christopher "Play" Martin (for those of you that don't know-a former member of Kid 'n Play from back in the 1980's) and veteran supervising producer, David "Damonsta" Lynch, the hits are blazing off the meter! Featuring music from up and newcomers ShonLock ("Boogie Bounce"), Shei Atkins ("Praise Him"), Ziklag (the bass-filled "Raw & Uncut"), R. Jones ("I Pray"), FTF ("Fireproof"), R-Swift ("Night Sweats") and Infinity featuring Linkz (the reggae-pumped "Holy Ghost Party"), plus with music from established Christian artists like Dynamic Twins ("This Is Me"), Canton Jones (the soothing ole-to-the-Lord jam, "You and Me"), Izreal ("I Pray") and Mr. Del (the down South bumper, "Shake 'Em off"), this CD is a definite one for the clubs, Christian or otherwise. Mariaha Markel's spoken word, "Dedication to Holy Hip Hop", narrations by Andre Williams and the hidden bonus track, Eastwood's West Coast fueled, "L.A.", helps to round out the disc on a positive note. If you're a beginning fan or a veteran listener of Christian rap and hip-hop, then Holy Hip Hop: Taking the Gospel to the Streets is for you! Go out and buy that! You won't be disappointed! Praise the Lord!

This is the original of the series and it is one of the best because it has a mix of music. It isn't all just rap, it has a few R&B type songs, like Canton Jones! That makes it great! Number one is a silly song. I don't like it much. Don't listen to that song and think the whole CD is silly. Number 2 is off the chain! That's my favorite song right that! Number 3 is very modern. A few of my friends thought it sounded dirty at first lol. And number 9 (if that is the holy ghost party song) is a good song too. My favorite volumes are still 3 and 5 though so I give this one a 4 because it isn't my favorite of the volumes, but definately a good one!
