I just saw a music video by rapper Shaggy entitled "Church Heathen" on Yahoo! Music that you must absolutely see!
The video is clearly an indictment against false-only-on-Sunday Christians and other church pretenders.
I probably need subtitles to understand everything he was saying, but the visuals are undeniable.
The song has a beat that has clearly come from Africa and is deeply embedded within various religions that our ancestors embraced after being stolen from their homeland. I have heard the rhythm within songs by singers in South Carolina singing in a a Geechee style with only hand claps, foot stomping, and a pole to keep the beat.
Check out the video and reach your own decision!
I am still in awe of the video and give it an 8 of 10.
Peace!
