Is MC Jin a Christian Rapper now?

Is MC Jin a Christian Rapper now?

MC Jin discusses his thoughts about being asked if he is a Christian rapper. (He talked about this a few years back, but it’s a recurring question in interviews.) Rather that focusing on being labeled as “Christian rapper”, he chooses to focus on glorifying God, spreading the Gospel, and seeking to obey God. However, if you choose to call him a “Christian rapper”, he’ll rock that as a badge of honor. With his new music, he’s clearly put his old self behind him and wants to encourage believers and act as a testimony to non-believers. As you listen to MC Jin’s new music, hopefully some of his words will touch your heart.

Listen to MC Jin’s music: Feel Good, Strght & Nrrw,Brand New Me, Y.O.G.O. (You Obey God Only), Doin’ The Landry, Nick of Time, When The Lights Come On, Shoot The Moon, Charlie Sheen, Angels, and AIYA.

If you’re curious about his change from Jin to MC Jin, the MC is now redefined as More Christ (MC).

More about Ken Loi
Some talents fall into place naturally, while others explode upon the industry with little but a flash of warning. A sudden flash of genius was all it took for Dutch Dance icon Tiësto to sign his alliances to the coming of age American club soldier we now know as Ken Loi. Gripping the nerve-ends of an industry now charged with universal attention and laying down his own unique melodic stylings upon its highest peaks, 2012 remains proving ground to yet another game changing asset to the stateside EDM explosion.

A producer first and foremost, Ken’s lust to customise the sets he would lay upon America before its untimely explosion cannot be ignored when considering the bigger picture of his style. But as his early 2012 breakthrough ‘Play Me’ EP for Big Beat and succeeding remixes for Adrian Lux and Gym Class Heroes proved, the San Francisco based producer was more than prepared to take the reigns of the EDM revolution
