In today's hectic and modern times, Christian scripture seems to be lacking the religious punch it once had during, say, the Middle Ages.Luckily, Christianity has found a way to guide its errant flock back into God's good graces -- through the power of rap music. Because we all know that fresh beats and street slang are the only things that resonate with today's youth.
However, what seemed like a good idea on the church stationery turns into an unholy mess of forced rhymes and stretched syllables that would make even the most hardened of MCs cry in anguish.
For now, take a seat in the front pew as we present the worst Christian rap videos on God's green Earth.
Having to sit through another insipid and corny parody of Sir Mix-a-Lot's "Baby Got Back" is proof that Satan exists.
Apparently, the best place to preach the word of God is in a bad neighborhood at night and out of screaming distance. Check out Jesus getting thrown into a dumpster.
It's like the PokéRap, but without the Pokémon.
It was only a matter of time before the Westboro Baptist Church got into the rap game.

No kidding. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously. Grow a sense of humor. Oh, and maybe check your calendar, I'm pretty sure that thing is older than youtube (though not as old as the Carmen rap).
Some of this stuff takes itself seriously and is just bad, but Christians hardly have a corner on the market of really bad rap. (Vanilla Ice anyone?) Including people who are just having fun (carmen/big bibles) just makes you look petty and ridiculous.

I agree. You should check out "table be round" (another parody of the song) from Robot Chicken

Well, you certainly had to do some research. Granted, neither of these artists had as much money to spend on their videos as some of our "pop artists" today, but I believe they have a LOT more to say. Thank you for puting these up on your site. I'm not sure what your intentions were, but I enjoyed the videos.

Rap totally sucks, so the Christian rap is an improvement or at least no worse.
Christian rock--not so much
I LOVED the Big Bibles rap--very witty!

I personally do not like rap music, but this one was great. I thought it was a unique way to change the original song, it was played at our church during our "Ladies Night of Laughter" and boy did we laugh! Those that had heard the original version before appreciated it more than those who hadn't!

If rap "totally sucks" as you say, then by your own words, this would have to suck, too. And I concur that this is just as annoying as the original. When I hear about Christian rock or Christian rap, it reminds me of a woman I saw on a talk show more than twenty years ago. The show was on religion and she told the audience that she was a stripper for Jesus. She was enticing men to "hear about the Lord." The audience groaned and for good reason. These so-called Christian efforts are an afront to anyone who takes Christianity seriously. How stupid.

I doubt the author of this story is even Christian. I watched the titled video but not the others. I felt the message it conveys is on point. Not to the size actually but the use; reading our bibles. If your a Christian then you should be attracted to someone who shares your values and love of the Lord. Was it corny? Yes. That was the point. Tongue-in-cheek fun with a message that says "women who tote a well read, good size bible are attractive." Sounds like good fun w/positive message. It doesn't need to satisfy everyone's taste; nothing does. I'm sure the younger-open minded folks had a laugh. The older ones who actually remember the original had a bigger laugh. Harmless. If Steven Romano isn't a Christian he should have picked another topic...maybe it's his writing that proves Satan exist?

Ah. So only Christians should have or express opinions about Christianity ? Using your logic, I'm assuming you also think that only Muslims are entitled to have or express an opinion about the proposed mosque in New York ?

"If you don't give a heck about the man with the Bible in his hand, just get out the way and let the gentleman do his thing."
Translation: You're not the reason the videos were made, so step off.

For those that might be interested, there are many good christian rap artist. If you would like to check some out, look up, "Grits", "LaCre", "KJ52", and those are just a few. Christian hip hop is just an option for those that prefer that kind of music, but refuse to listend to music that speaks off killing others, sex, and speaking of women as objects. Not all hip hop artist are writing lyrics that are completely negative, but these few and many others that are not mention in this article are absolutly not... It's up to the individual to choose what he fills his brain with...

They're supposed to be FUNNY people, so appreciate them for what they are: comedy. Don't take them seriously, don't think someone's REALLY trying hard to make the songs sound good. Just watch them and laugh at their cheesiness.
