The Paradox of Christian Battle Rap
[Why Loso's Faithful Fans are Few and Far Between] #christianrap
There appears to be a paradox at work in Christian battle rap. Loso is a Christian battle rapper, so you would assume that more Christians would support him, or at least embrace him, but it appears like non-Christians support him more. Loso wants to bring this topic into the spotlight because it’s been something he has faced with throughout his career and he did just that on the Mitch Darrell Show, episode 13.
First, let us define what we mean by the paradox of Christian battle rap. Essentially, it’s the concept that, despite being a Christian rapper, Loso discovers that non-believers are typically the ones who show him the most love. Despite to what one might assume, Christians are much less likely to back a Christian Rapper In the battle rap arena . Loso, however, has found that this isn’t always the case.
Why is that so, then? There could be a few culprits, admittedly. For one thing, battle rap is a somewhat niche genre, and it’s possible that the pool of likely fans is simply smaller. Additionally, because battle rap can be considered as aggressive or violent, some Christians could be hesitant to support it. Regardless of the causes, it is evident that the battle rap scene does not have the support of the faithful.
Loso’s experience illustrates this perfectly. As a Christian rapper, I might imagine that he has encountered some challenges that other battle rappers haven’t. To appeal to a larger audience, he may have been encouraged to tone down his faith-based lyrics, for example. But Loso has refused to compromise his convictions, instead focusing on reaching those who are unlikely to connect with his message.

It’s past time to break the norm when it comes to Christian battle rappers.
