520 | |a Gospel rap is becoming an increasingly popular musical form and a method to evangelize to younger audiences. However, to some, its secular roots make this expression inappropriate for the Christian arena. Given their continued efforts to attract young Blacks in general and males in particular, some Black churches are including gospel rap in their musical repertoire. This project examines Black Church usage of gospel rap music and indicators that explain its inclusion. Clergy, church, and member profiles as well as congregational environment are considered, based on Faith Factor 2000 Project data for seven denominations. Findings suggest the importance of denomination and church environment in engendering use of gospel rap music. Results also show a direct relationship between increases in new members and use of gospel rap. Implications for religion, popular culture, and race in general, as well as for Black Church evangelism in particlar, are provided. | ||
