History

Christian Rap emerged in the late 1980s as a response to the growing popularity of hip hop and the desire to create music that reflected Christian values.

Over the years, Christian Rap has grown in popularity, with artists gaining recognition both within the Christian music scene and in the broader hip hop community.
