A Rapper Writes

The Christian rapper Shai Linne has recorded a poem called “Fal$e Teacher$” in which he calls out by name a number of well-known figures.

You can read the lyrics here: http://rapgenius.com/Shai-linne-fal-e-teacher-lyrics#lyric

Or you can listen to it at the same link. (I won’t tell.)

One of the people he named was Paula White. Her son took umbrage publicly with Shai Linne.

Here is his response: http://wadeoradio.com/shai-linne-responds-to-paula-white-ministries-open-letter/

What do you think of his response?

I’d prefer that this thread not be a discussion of Christian rap music but of his response.

For the record, I first met Shai Linne in church when I was intrigued by the young man in jeans and dreadlocks who was standing next to me and enthusiastically singing the bass line to “O, for a Thousand Tongues to Sing (Lyngham) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYHFwYgxc_U I enjoyed talking with him after church but had no idea of how well-known he was till weeks later. At my age there’s little chance of me becoming a rap music fan, but I believe I’m a better off for having met him and realizing that I can have a Christian brother who’s not my twin.
