Thi'sl "Chronicles of an X-Hustler" #4 on iTunes Hip Hop/Rap Category

First we'd like to say that we appreciate all of the Christian Hip Hoppers out there on their grind! The music industry can be a beast! We've seen some Hip Hop albums do pretty well on iTunes this year... Viktory's album "Son of the King" was in the Top 10 the first few days of its release, and Da' T.R.U.T.H.'s project "The Big Picture" is still doing well, having held a Top 10 position for a few days, and now still in the Top 20.

Well, we have another, and we're thoroughly excited over this because this album is not in the Christian & Gospel section, but actually in the Hip Hop/Rap category! Thi'sl's "Chronicles of an X-Hustler" is currently #4 on the iTunes Hip Hop/Rap category! Praise God!




Here's what Thi'sl has to say about this...

the Lord is so tight..... it (the album) was intentionally done to make the content unique and the tracks to compliment them and not over shadow them.....the album does paint a grimey pic but that's what we need to see because it exists....the hood needs to hear it from that angle, they only see one side. and the church most of us live in a bubble and don't know what goes on outside of our subdivision. i live eat and breathe the inner city.....5 people got shot in my hood some weeks back one was my girl cousin she trap hard. i am more than sure of what God poured out through me as for this hour....because i see both sides of the fence....and the church needs that same awakening....ask the average christian how often do they share their faith.....ask them where they plan on going for their next mission trip....then ask them what city do they live in and go check the crime rate we are missing the mark. 75 kids at one of our most popular high schools were infected with HIV and those were the only ones that admitted it.....we sitting in our churches and our homes enjoying the peace while people are dieing all around us. we are raising thousands of dollars to go over seas when their is a family on our street who's lights are out and fridge is empty. our ultimate goal seems is to be beastly theologians, rappers, pastors and not servants.....i am a reality dude as a a church we are consumed with our own agendas and beefs while the world dies.....i'm here to show reality.......pray to God i don't get to do a movie...lol but thanks man just venting i appreciate all of the support from you guys... and i know this has become cliche...but i wasn't trying to make a dope album the Father is my witness, i sat out to make an album that would bring light to some dark places and bring God glory...and even in the church
