De tant en tant torno i escoltar àlbums i cançons que realment em van traslladar artística i espiritualment quan els vaig sentir. One of those albums is El Projecte Solus Christus by Shai Linne. És un dels meus discos favorits de hip hop- període. La producció és únic (encara que no Commerical), el contingut és increïble, i l'habilitat lírica de Shai està en l'exhibició completa. Aquest és un d'aquells discos que fa preguntar-se a si mateixos rapers, "Per què segueixo rapejant nou?”
No puc citar tot el disc en aquest post, però aquí està un dels meus versos favorits de l'àlbum. És el vers de Shai de "Mic Check 1,2″:
El va donar la seva vida com a rescat, Estic bombo i estic ballant
A l'recitar els meus himnes de Crist, Just l'Anyell que il·lumina la meva llanterna
Qui sinó el Senyor de les nacions
Pot donar bombo a un borratxo nacions per escriure sense ni tan sols una paraula de autoglorificació?
Els meus febles paraules- de fet inadequada per a descriure la Immaculada Llavor
Destinat a fer obres miraculoses
A l'edat de dotze anys, que hi havia les antigues caps van sorprendre dels seus punts de vista
Obeït seus pares, tot i que Ell va crear els seus tubs de vent
Una anomalia veritable- i qui pot ponderar la
Servant la lluita contra la serp en el desert amb versos de Deuteronomi
Satanàs va llançar tots els obstacles en ell, però no podia imaginar
Els brillants estratagemes de la Adam escatològica
La singularitat de la seva mansuetud és massa profunda per parlar
I si creu que la mansuetud és feble només tractar de ser mans durant una setmana
perfecta humanitat- però, bombollejant amb la divinitat
Complint el pacte etern dins de la Trinitat
sofriment insuportable, agonia infinita
abandonament diví per l'inventor de la gravetat
No hi ha pecat en Sa Majestat, Ell era un substitut
El fruit del seu amor va ser suficient per treure el pecat des de l'arrel
El tercer dia es va aixecar victoriós- és a dir, és història
Una obra que direcció de Déu per fer que Jesús sigui glorificat
Escopim discurs santa sobre ritmes per pujar la temperatura
I hi ha retirada tot i que busquen el retorn de l'emperador!
que, els meus amics, és un dels més grans versos de hip hop que s'han escrit. Els esquemes de la rima, el vocabulari, la claredat i la profunditat del contingut, el flux- tot era una bogeria. Glòria a Déu per l'ús del meu germà Shai. Quins són alguns dels àlbums i y'alls versos favorits?

To respond to your question Trip – this was the verse that compelled me check out Shai in the first place, off Flame’s Our World Redeemed, “2nd coming.” Amazing.
In the scriptures we find facts
Pictures of divine acts
Prophesied God provides wisdom the mind lacks
At History’s climax
More vivid than IMAX
The sky cracks with
Jesus on some, I’m back
ara, just try to visualize the most
Glorious site ever to hit physical eyes
Holy angels in Christ who gets minimalized
in splendor arrives and all the dead in Him will arise
Believers who are alive become a maturated Order
And caught up in the clouds like evaporated water
To Be captivated by the Master’s grace and aura
Before He Activates the slaughter
on the cats who hate the Torah
The File wildin’ out and doubt and wouldn’t call on Him
And now Crying out for the mountains to fall on ’em
The dead come Out the grave at the holy judge they look
They’re broken up and shook
while He opens up the books
All sins will be Weighed not ignored
And law breakers slayed (slain) by the sword
on the day of the Lord
While we gaze and admire His
Greatness, liars and fakes who hate Messiah expire in
The fiery lake
Made for Satan and his angels sent to deceive
Multitudes who refuse to repent and believe
The elect have no hell to fear
Cause we’re related to the judge
Like the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
Another verse that hit me, Lecrae’s verse on “Beautiful Feet” off Rebel. It was amazing and really hit at the heart for me:
Eric used to go to bible study as a kid
He got older and started doing what the hood did
A rival gang caught him slippin tried to take his life
But the jammed up so them beat him nice
He woke up in the hospital singing bible songs
Praise God he had a place to learn the bible from
But then he gets saved and wanna preach Christ they make him change his whole culture and way of life
He gotta get him a bachelors wear a suit and tie
Go to seminary by then all of his boys will die
Jesus came to invade culture outta nazereth and used a couple fisherman who people saw as hazardous
The feet are beautiful if only they’d go
If ain’t nobody in hood preaching how will they know?
Eric is better used taught trues in his context
Somebody please plant a church in his projects.
The last one I can think of off top is Tedashii’s verse from Between Two World’s “Bear with you” (which I think is my favorite song on the whole album) –
Life done been crumby, since I been walkin a young’n
Call me different or funny, wish I could change it like money
Grew up off in the country, we’re lookin different n funny
Stupid head or just ugly, no matter what it kept comin
Askin’ my momma where daddy, he aint here to protect me
Teach me, raise me, or carry my load when it get heavy
So I did it on my own, fightn carryin on
It don’t matter what they told me dawg, I thought I was grown
People tell me that I’m trippin, n i tell them they wrong
All the while I’m actin out, blamin my daddy who gone
Fast forward by 10, when God saved me from sin
And He changed my heart from dark to light to show to all men
And I got the conviction, call him up and stop trippin
Thats when I found out he’s a Christian, who got saved in omission
Thats when it goes past religion, and then it makes an incision
Into your heart n then you start forgivin, man and start buildin!
Cheers to good music and hail to the King!

I’m constantly amazed by the show Shai and others like yourself put on through your lyrics. I figure most Hip Hop isn’t that difficult because you have the freedom to create bars that really don’t have to relate to your previous bar. Just saying random things that rhyme, pretty much. But you guys have to pick a subject and make it rhyme while still having a clear message. I couldn’t measure the difficulty of that. And that Shai verse you posted, in light of that difficulty, is truly amazing.
