I wish the gospel stations would devote an hour or two to pure gospel music like this. It is so over crowded with secular sounding music. It's hard to know the difference between gospel and r&b. I know that it's all about the "message" but I get tired of "dropping it like it's hot" to gospel while mistaking it for the other stuff.

Greetings Greggy757,

I feel ya on this... I don't listen to the radio, i stopped years ago...Nor do i watch the so-called gospel award shows the right artist,IMO, are never recognized. I thank God for this style of Gospel it has brought me-ALL THE WAY!-... I do like some hip hop styles of gospel, only if i can get the message, and ain't nothing ever wrong with 'dropping it ,like it's hot' it's like FIRE !!!!

To be honest with you, I was only commenting to your previous comment. It was just a statement, not an offense, which according to your response it seems you took it that way.

Plus, how can we be in trouble? The only trouble is people not Knowing the truth, especially our young people, about our Music Heritage. Once again, my comment was not meant to offend. Be Blessed.

[greggy757]

I'm not "playa hating" on anything. If you read my comment carefully, you would see that part of it is a joke. It was just a comment. And if your comment is considered "music history", we're really in trouble.

[asquaredmedia]

Though I understand where you're coming from, however, let's not "PLAYA HATE" on Urban Gospel and Gospel Hip-Hop. This version of Gospel is for the Next Generation ONLY (I Feel). Just imagine. This gospel we are listening to now on youtube was considered too bluesy for those who grow up during the Mahilia Jackson and Thomas Dorsey. Just a little music history for thought. Be Blessed. :)

[asquaredmedia]

This is a CLASSIC. I was in the 9th grade when this came out. ;)
