Music Reviews
Our goal is not to just give an opinion as to whether or not a cd/album simply sounds good, or even try to weigh in as some sort of authority as to whether or not a project sounds Christian enough. Typically we listen to a project several times,
- First Impression: this is where we just listen and get a feel for the project. Our first thoughts and general information.
- A Closer Look: Here we begin to dissect and dig a little deeper, analyzing style and content.
- Da Breakdown: This time we listen even closer to the lyrical content, how does it match up with the music, are there any spiritual applications/implications or complications, we also give an overview of songs and subject matter covered in them.
- Final Thoughts: Here we give a final overall opinion of the project, things to consider when listening, what we will walk away with after listening, favorite tracks etc.
That’s the basic format we will be using for any music reviewed by Holy Ridaz. We will also be featuring reviews from other writers and artist as well that might utilize a different format, but none the less they will be equally as informative and noteworthy.
If you are a Christian Artist and are interested in having your project reviewed, hit us up at holyridaz@gmail.com, with Music review as the subject line, and we will reply with the details.
*****Music disclaimer******
**** I feel like I should add some sort of disclaimer here that is not only appropriate for Holy Hip Hop music, but any Christian music for that matter, and that disclaimer would be “Eat the Meat….and Spit Out the Bones!” In other words as you listen…hear what the Holy Spirit is speaking directly to you, if something hits or rubs you the wrong way don’t just chalk it up to being wrong, but instead discover what is bothering you about it…if it is because there is some truth in it…then just say ouch and take it and grow from it. If it sounds un-scriptural or un-sound then get into your Word and dig into it until you resolve whether it is actually wrong or does it merely put a hole in your theology or religious beliefs. Take what you can use from it and leave the rest behind…that’s easy enough right. Please keep in mind that although this music is used to reach people it still has limitations…after all it is only music. And always keep in mind that it is The Spirit of God and the Grace of God that leads and draws men unto Him…our job is merely to do our best..to give our best…and let God do the rest. Can we get an Amen!
