Gospel music: The great granddaddy of much of today's popular music, Jazz, to R&B, to Blues, to Soul, and even Country Music owe a bit to gospel music. Gospel music refers, broadly, to the African American Christian music that directly descended from Negro spirituals, slave songs, and traditional Christian hymns, taking concepts from traditional African music like a focus on rhythm and chorus, and call and response to evolve into its own art form distinct from other forms of music, taking on a uniquely African flavor. It was from this form of music that much of modern pop music disseminated, and many a well-known black artist, from then and now, got their start singing gospel in church. Gospel has had to evolve over the years into a myriad of different forms. The universality of the Christian message has caused gospel to expand and, in a bit of irony, take concepts from rap, R&B, blues, rock, and jazz, the very genres it inspired in the first place. Traditional gospel is still enjoyed by the older generation, but newer and more modern forms of gospel have taken root and absorbed musical stylings from its "children". This has caused a divide among many Christian denominations, with many seeing modern gospel as becoming too secularized or "worldly", while the younger generation say that the older forms of music cannot reach the current generation, leading to an Fandom Rivalry within the gospel industry itself. That said, while more contemporary forms have found popularity even in the secular music industry, the diehards still enjoy the traditional stuff. Like Christian Rock, this music is not simply the moral substitute. It has grown to take on a life of its own, speaking particularly to the black experience, but still reaching audiences of all kinds. And due to gospel's slow transformation, the concept of gospel has expanded to include any music, any music, no matter the style, that is still believed to adhere to the gospel message. That means that gospel music can take attributes of any of the other types of music listed on the music index page and still be considered some form of gospel. Rule of thumb, however, is that to be considered gospel music, it generally has to: A) be based on some form of "black" music (i.e. R&B or jazz) and/or B) have a black artist. That being said, with recent changes in the gospel music industry, this concept of gospel music is changing, and these two concepts are no longer as strict as it used to be. And usage of a gospel choir is indeed common. Because, as we all know, Gospel Choirs Are Just Better. |

Zeal & Ardor mixes this with numerous other styles, including Blues and Black Metal... no, seriously.note It should be noted that, from a metaphysical standpoint, the traditional message of gospel music is very much inverted here, however. On the other hand, if you didn't pay attention to the names used in the lyrics, it might be difficult to tell. | |

Lecrae: Currently, the biggest name in Gospel Rap. Well known for finding great cross genre success. He is well known for songs that speak about God in a a real world context and sometimes just focusing on more conscious hip hop. One also has to consider that Lecrae doesn't consider himself a gospel rapper,per se, but a rapper who raps the Gospel. | |
