Lecrae shines...the rest is uneven

"About half of the songs on this CD are by Lecrae; no one else has more than two songs. I worked at Kids Across America, a Christian camp for urban youth, and we played this CD into the ground. Here's the thing: even after hearing these songs many times every day for an entire summer, some of them STILL sound fresh. The best two are Breathe In Breathe Out by Lecrae and Act Out by This'l, although most of the rest are pretty good when played in moderation. Of course, I like faster, more complex songs, which is why I picked these two, but I See the Lord by Sho feat. Ray is a beautiful slower song as well. This is a good compilation, but remember that compilations aren't real albums, and so know what you're getting. Check out Real Talk by Lecrae and Holy Culture and Human Emergency by Cross Movement"

Bang'n

"The 116 Clique has by far the best lyrics in all of Christian rap. Let's be honest, most Christian rappers are lame. I'm a Christian, and proud of it, but most acts fall short in the lyrics department. Don't hate me for telling the truth. Every track on this cd brings the heat with fire lyrics, and smoke'n beats. DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS CD! You can't go wrong with any cd from this Clique, and the best part is it's all word centered."

"This item is listed as explicit lyrics..This needs to be fixed. These guys are spreading the Word of Truth....I guess to the lost this would be explicit. Lecrae has a new CD coming out Sept 30....just a little PR."
