A new era in Christian music has started!
"Scrip - Hop" is born!
Baltimore youths: Wesley Jr., Shaw, Julian, and Cheyenne,
under the name "PRAISE WARRIORS", have released their Christian rap debut album
"CrossEyed"
through Oblivion America Recordings - their
family-owned record label.
The music is strong and energetic and the lyrics are verses from the NIV Bible,
thus you have "script-hop."
What started as a contest at their church for putting
Scripture to music has now become a Christian music CD and a new genre. Three years of recording,
sporadic performances and leading children’s worship at church has given
these young people
confidence, stage presence, and a growing fan base in and outside the Christian community.
Children and teens are drawn to this new genre
of music due to its raw hip hop tracks
and are left feeling challenged
to learn Scripture as if learning the lyrics to their favorite song.
The Praise Warriors can be seen and enjoyed on
www.youtube.com/praisethe1, Myspace Music,
facebook, myccm, tangle, and 24 Gospel.
The group is currently selling CDs, booking shows, interviews and appearances, and can be contacted through this website,
MySpace page, and their e-mail address
praisewarriors@gmail.com.
