What It Is?

This is a take on the book of Colossians where we are asked, why do we keep ordinances?  This is about the relationship between what someone tells you to do, and what we choose to hear, so then we act on hearing.  When someone wants to hear something from someone they know, which makes them more likely to get involved with it, then they would ask, per se, What it is?  This is a kind of country slang term.

What It Is? - Prod. Syndrome

This is a topic about releasing the constriction on what you decide to do. This song has to do with freedom, although the title seems to contradict.  

The beat is produced by James TenNapel (Syndrome).

Do What I Do

This is an underground Hip-hop type track with an oldschool sound.  The lyrics are more grass roots and without much spiritual references.  The take is on the days of our youth and past lives in the hood.

Them Days

These lyrics are fashioned to uplift and strengthen those with any amount of Faith.  It tells another side of the Christian story.  It's the kind of song that keeps you going.

Just You And I

Just You And I - Prod. Syndrome x Polar Beats

This track is a heavenly reflection that speaks against hypocrisy.  It has a lot of pomp to compliment the beat.

In An Accepted Time

Accepted Time - Prod. Syndrome

This is an underground hip-hop style and spiritual rap form. It is a conscious rap style emphasizing faith in Jesus Christ. The sound can somewhat be taken as spoken word rap. The rap sticks to an east-coast-grass-roots Hip-hop form, rather than trying to echo -modern rap. It focuses on meaningful and deep sayings but can be misconstrued as indie rap. However, much of the lyrical compression is inspired by Wu-tang. The content contains advocacy, for people mislabeled by religion as backsliders. There is some calling out of hypocrisy in the congregation.  The lyrics stick to biblical truth. It's a movement of rap flow to encourage confidence in God and yourself. Also, it seeks to be welcoming of all men regardless of gender and sexual orientation, by sticking to the main focus of scripture. Lastly, the Hip-hop is intended to sound modern, but refrain from being traditionally cheesy Christian rap or superficially shallow in content.
