Christian Hip Hop has always and never received recognition. What I mean is that in underground hip hop, there are so many artists who are Christian spitting as they have always done for years and have been getting recognized for their accomplishments, but nobody knows what they truly stand for. Such example is Mars Ill. Many have heard of them and again and again, people think they are like the next man just doing rap for what it is. After seeing them drop the classic, Raw Material album and then to do collabos with MF DOOM, Cappadonna, and others, you can say that they are quite accomplished. DJ Dust of Mars Ill is in another group with Sev Statik of Albany, New York and they have been signed to drop an album on the newly reformed Rawkus record label.
Christian Hip Hop has been around as long as Hip Hop has been around. True Underground hip hop is Christian because all the flak and hating it receives. The talent is there, the message is ridiculous. So I'm gonna bring to you a few of the best. First, Mars Ill. I mentioned they did a song with Cappadonna so I'll put that one up. Here's one from Neogen of Remnant Militia fame called "Paramedics". And last but not least, THE PROCUSSIONS. If you know hip hop, you know them. They toured with Tribe Called Quest on their reunion tour. They signed with Rawkus. They have done over three world tours. The song "Little People" did some rounds in the underground world and a video was supposed to drop and a remix with Phonte of Little Brother. Christian Music never sounded so good.
