Christian Hip Hop Kirby Anthony

Christian Hip Hop: The Music & Culture Bringing a Spiritual Awakening to Urban Communities, gives readers an inside look into how the Christian Hip Hop movement began, and the impact it is having in urban communities. In stringent detail, author Kirby Anthony makes the argument for classifying "Hip Hop" as more than an art form, or genre of music, but a worldwide culture in and of itself, creating various styles and dress codes, regional dialects, worldviews, etc. The book also gives a description of the early days of the Christian Hip Hop movement, as it formed out of the hearts of urban Christian disciples, who desired to evangelize their communities. The book closes with a warning to Christian Hip Hop ministers, on what challenges they face as the movement continues. If you love Christian Hip Hop, understand its benefits, or are a minister in the movement, this book is for you.
