Hello Everyone;

I was researching "The Truth Behind Hip Hop" - DVD, from

http://www.exministries.com

I watched the DVD. In the DVD, the speaker says that the Satan made
Heavy Metal Music so that people would fully embrace him by this music. But Satan wasn't happy because 'brothers' were not into heavy
metal. So he had to come up with a music that would reach brothers and spread out to all cultures - black , white, hispanic, asian etc.

The speaker revealed some things that I will list below about hip hop artist.

I double-checked everything he said to make sure it's all true.
I heard through other sources that DMX, Snoop Dogg and Tupac were rapping that they sold their souls to the devil. I wanted to
see if it was true.

I went to a website called http://www.azlyrics.com and did a search to see what the rappers were saying about the devil.

Here is the information I learned..

Detail #1: Snoop Dog
--------------------------
In his autobiography "The Doggfather", Snoop Dogg says the devil came to him to make a deal that he would be rich and famous in exchange for his soul. Snoop said yes and identifies that as the death of calvin broadus and the birth of snoop dogg.


Detail #2: Tupac in his song "Good Life"
-----------------------------------------------------
Tupac says he sold his soul to the devil.

"I sold my soul for a chance to kick it and bang
Now tell if I'm wrong
but sayin "**** the world" got you deeper in my songs
Drinkin 'til I earl, spendin money 'til it's gone
It's the good life - maybe ****** got it goin on"


"why I should change, into a softie
.. after living so loftily
It cost me my soul out of control in a devil's world"

Detail #3: I found what is DMX rap song lyrics.
----------------------------------------------------
DMX did a Song with MARILYN MANSON of all people. On the cover of his CD, DMX is dripped in blood with the M of his name conspicuously over his head to make it appear like he has horns out of his head. Your average hip hop listener may have missed this thing with marilyn manson.

So I went to azlyric.com to check out the lyrics on DMX's albums.

Here's what I from 2 songs that DMX did.

A. FROM THE SONG "LET ME FLY".

In this song, DMX explains that he sold his soul to the devil and exactly why he did it etc.


"I sold my soul to the devil, and the price was cheap A yo it's cold on this level cause it's twice as deep But you don't hear me, ignorance is blisning and so on
Sometimes it's better to be taught dumb
Shall I go on
You don't want no real, what the deal is a mystery
How is it I can live and make history
If you don't see it then it, wasn't ment for you to see
If you wasn't born wit' it then, it wasn't ment for you to be
But you can't blame me for not wantin' to be hound
lock down in a cell wit' a soul gettin' dwelled
This is hell, go get the devil and get me the key
but can't be worst than the curse that was given ta me
It's what I live for, you take away that and I'm gone "

B. FROM THE SONG "THE OMEN" That he did with Marilyn Manson.


If you read the lyrics on www.azlyrics.com, you will notice that There is a Duet Going on Between DMX and someone else. The person doing the duet with DMX is in paragraphs.
Let's see if you can figure out who the duet is with.


"(You, right here shorty, told you, I got you Like the way I scooped
you, when those ****** ****** shot you? I'ma hold you down, and I mean that, for real)

But everytime you beef with a *****, I end up havin' to kill

(Ain't like that, and hey, forget about them 2 kids 'Bout to do a deal, somethin' nice as you is)
Oh you think
(Nah, I'm just playin', what's up?
I got some new bitches, I know you tryin' to ****)
Not really "


By the end of the song you know exactly who is doing the Duet

"Here we go again

(After what I just gave you, with you actin' like that when you asked for that favor)

Yo, I ain't ask you for ****

(Oh yes you did, when you really needed something, and you was out, you did You sold me your soul, )"


That was a duet between DMX and Satan.
And marilyn manson was singing this on the chorus.

"Here we are on our way to hell
We're gonna do it, and we do it well

This is Marilyn Manson, Dmx, Ruff Ryders
[repeats and distorts til end]"

That was supposed to be a duet with the devil. It probably was. If it was another rapper doing the part in parentheses , then it would have said the rapper's name.

Detail #4: Color Me Bad's
----------------------------
The Group "Color Me Bad" had a hit single "I wanna sex you up". The Ex-member Kevin, gave his life to christ and admitted that in the studio the members of Color Me Bad, did a witches spell over the CD so that they would have a hit record and that hundreds of thousands of girls would lose their virginity to this song.

Detail #5: Bone Thugs and Harmony
-------------------------------------------
From the DVD, I learned, Bone Thugs and Harmony had a witchcraft curse at the back of their CD. it's written backwards so once a person recognizes that, they will
naturally hold it up to a mirror and try to read it.
The speaker on the DVD, researched it and discovered that the witches of salem, would send them a letter written backwards when they wanted to put a curse on someone. the person would hold it up to the mirror
and read it backwards.

Detail #6: JAY Z 's song HOVA
------------------------------

From azlyrics;
"Hova the God, I should be rappin with turban"

"I consistantly take em out the park like Ken Griffey
Do you believe? It's Hova the God"

He's saying that he is J-Hovah or Jehovah from the bible.

----------------------

in his song
" dont know whether to hug
Or to fill you with slugs"

But in another of his rap song "Survival of the Illest " the
intro, he says this that he loves the devil

"Love the devil and women I keep em sinnin"

Detail #8: Ride or Die Music
---------------------------------
There's a lot of rap songs out there about 'Ride or Die' at one of the presentations by G. Craig Lewis of www.exministries.com, a 15 year old came
up to the altar and said he doesn't want to have anything to do with hip hop
any more and he wants to give his life to Jesus Christ. He went and got his
Sawed off Shot gun and gave it to G. Craig Lewis and said he doesn't know how many people he shot with it. The 15 year old said, regular teenagers can't kill in cold blood like that. The way they would do it is to listen to Gangsta Rap music for about 20 minutes then they are ready to kill anybody.

Closing Thoughts:
------------------
It turns out Satan was not happy that Heavy Metal was not reaching 'Brothers'. So he created that Hip Hop to reach 'brothers' and cross all kinds of ethnic & cultural barriers.

Hip Hop is not 'our' music. It is the devil's music. He wants the people in the club to recognize him and adore him. When people dance to his music and his artist, they are dancing to the devil's beats, songs and ideals. Gangsta Rap pretty much started with Snoop Dogg who sold his soul to the devil and took off - now everybody is crazy
about making hard gangsta beats like Dr. Dre. All the beats in hip hop have to be hard - just the way the devil wants it. You can't put out a album now unless it's got a touch of gangsta or that ying yang krunck sound like the beats for "Only you" by Ashanti or "Can you keep up" beyonce.

Gangsta beats put you in that frame of mind to do what the devil wants, bumpin and grinding in the clubs, drinkin moet and crystal and sex with everything that passes by. That's the devil's way. That's why at many of these concerts they perform or fake sex acts on stage (Example: Luke, R.Kelly, Ying Yang twins and more ). Before Ja Rule's concerts they chant Murda' Murda' before they start the song. At the end of Ja Rule's concerts, they have an angel hanging from the ceiling flapping it's wings chanting

'Murda' Murda'. What's that angel? what's that about?


Now you know The Truth Behind Hip Hop.

Satan tried to make the same deal with Jesus Christ when Jesus was tempted in the wilderness. The bible says


Matthew 4:8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
Matthew 4:9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou
wilt fall down and worship me.
Matthew 4:10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is
written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve


Do you want to be with hip hop or with God?

Answer 1

WTF?

Music doesn't make a person worship God or the devil. Attitude toward religion does that. Your bible quotes don't back up your argument at all. Take your religious soap box somewhere else.

Answer 2

Well just because most mainstream hiphop sucks, if not all of the recent stuff, does not mean all of it sucks. There are some wonderful hiphop and rap artists from way back when that actually made their music with effort, not simply in the hopes of making money, but also to inspire and such. Artists such as Eric B. & Rakim, Beastie Boys, Run DMC, A Tribe Called Quest (who were great at story telling), Public Enemy. These guys aren't exactly what I'd call crap, although I agree completely with you on the more recent stuff going around.

Answer 3

The soul is not something with which one can bargain.

(Matthew 10:28) And do not become fearful of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; but rather be in fear of him that can destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.

Answer 4

They most likely sell their balls to the devil...don't you see how they're hiding them!!! (Yes they're hiding them not holding them)
