ASK THE ARTIST

Type: news By Caresse Posted Jul 15, 2010 76 Comments

Ever wondered what the inspiration was for your favorite Tedashii song? What does an average day look like for Sho Baraka?  How does Trip handle being married at a young age? And what’s Lecrae’s writing process?

Well, from time-to-time, we will give our 116 fam an opportunity to ask one of our artists a question to learn a little bit more about them.  You have 24 hours to submit your question to caresse@reachrecords.com, and the artist will pick three questions to answer each time.  Each person can only submit one question, so make it good! 

First up: Tedashii

  • Raffi D. (Jul 15th, 10 at 4:20 PM) Tedashii I have failed so many times to see god, I am ahorroble sinner and I am ashamed in what I believe in, I cannot say I am a fanatic and I cannot say I am a true follower of god. I feel that I am an abomination to god. But I can say that I do repent daily and I made a myspace for Jesus at myspace.com/ripens so what must I do to feel great about myself? To feel that I am a follower of Christ. I already tried giving my life yo him, but it seems he has ignored my call. Perhaps i'm a failure. What should I do?

  • dre (Jul 15th, 10 at 4:22 PM) If secular music isn't good for the soul and we are to make a joyful noise to the Lord; why do we hear so much secular music in christian music? I understand that its hiphop but if I'm listening to the album and someone hears it...I feel they should know its Christ and not the new jayz, kanye or jeezy. Do you listen to both? (No disrespect...just a real question)
