Religious movement growing in hip-hop culture (ABC News article)
(12/14/06)
- Run of Run-DMC. MC Hammer. Chris Martin. Kurtis Blow. All these performers are rap legends of the 1980s and '90s. But besides the baggy pants, break dancing, bad hairstyles and nostalgic fans, these rap pioneers have one other thing in common. They are all at the forefront of a religious revival within the hip-hop nation. In September 2006, the original rap superstar-turned-preacher, Kurtis Blow, and Holy Hip-Hop Music got together and established a groundbreaking record label, Music Ministry Recordings. The strategic alliance is part of an exclusive agreement with industry heavyweight EMI Gospel in which Holy Hip-Hop Music and Pastor Kurtis will produce, distribute, and market Music Ministry Recordings.
