(Only rappers do that LOL. J/K) And those are very great examples that you have just given. But also some that have had a bad reputation in the past have changed their ways. For instance Jon bon jovi...If you watch or read about them at all you can tell they have changed from their old ways. Which is great! And I can not tell you why Christian music is not as popular....except my own opinion and that is...cause I feel they are too into god persay...they make me feel like they are trying to force me into something. just my opinion though. ~Heather Ann~ ----- Original Message ----- From: Keith P.
