Underground Rise Vol 1
Sunrise/Sunset
Uprok Records

Underground artists unite and rise to build one of the grandest collaborations in Christian hip hop called "Underground Rise Vol 1."

"Underground Rise" starts with a spoken word intro that actually gets me psyched up more than most of the raps that follow. What does follow is still monumental because of the pool of collaborators that are just too many to name. Notable tracks include; "Real Money," relating to discipling young artists in the true goal of the business which is ministry and not money. "Mission Pen Possible" raps of spiritual gifts and a simple tool of ministry, the pen.

A project this monumental can't be given its just due in a short review. If you're interested in knowing more about the hip-hop uprising check out http://www.sphereofhiphop.com.
