An Islamic perspective on Mase (a Christian preacher) returning to hip-hop

white Boy:
its funny to me , how he came back to give a msg, and all i see him rapping about is money, and material things

Montana00:
I actually agree with alot of what your saying.  Mase is trying to get popular by playing off jesus and his religion. He's saying "I dont cuss", but christianity isnt only about not cussing. You have to live a lifestyle according to God, which flaunting money and hoes really isnt Godly.

Hoes? He has models dancing normally, all properly dressed in his video, and Ma$e hasn't been swiping his Visa through any of their asses.
How is he playing off jesus and his religion when he doesn't talk about jesus at ALL except for the Jesus Walks remixes and a few lines in ONE song on his album.

Really Hajj, you need to stop tripping off religion, all it does is make people judge each other harshly and it only divides everyone.  For instance, i am sure you were a lot more accepting of others before you became a devoted muslim, and i am not saying christians are any better because alot of them are very judgemental as well.  Remember that we are all brothers and if you are always judging others you are doing very little to help your fellow man.  I  know you were once a lost soul (i remember a thread you did about suicide once) and i am happy that you have found a solid base in your life, i hope all is well.  But these threads are doing very little for anyone, besides allowing us to see how judgemental and narrow minded you have become........and i am not trying to be an asshole, i wish the best for you,  but to be honest this is getting ridiculous.  NO hard feelings man,    teecee

If anyone would actually pay attention to mase, he doesnt really have plans to be all preachy and shit, he didnt want to center his whole album around stuff about god..........he wanted to make a fun album without negativity, which is exactly what he did.  He is not your typical christian from what i can tell, he doesnt try to fit the stereotype we all have in our mind of a pastor, and for that i commend him because it is obvious he is doing his thing and is trying to show others there is more to life in a way that isnt overly aggresive or forthcoming.  Id rather him do that then ram it down our throats and condemn everyone from the rap world who is living wrong


i like the fact that mase is not being judgemental, that he is open to working with anyone as he sees the good in people and doesnt try to force his beliefs on people.   Which is a lot more than i can say for what Hajj is doing.............
