I have to admit that I cringed at that! lol But to the kid on the street, the term Savior may mean nothing, where the term "homeboy" means his protector,the one watching his back, the one he goes to when he's in trouble, the one who helps him fight his enemies. It might get THAT kid to thinking that maybe he should check out this Jesus.
Even Jesus himself spoke in parables and in such a way that the people of his day would undestand and continue to seek answers.
I just can't see where this is worse than listening to drugs,sex,abuse,murder...
Ok perhaps "homeboy" wasn't the best term to use. :) I agree that Christian music has a better message than secular. I'm all for Christian Rock and actually I prefer Christian Metal, rap I can leave (Christian or Secular, I just don't like it).
