Music In American Culture

Music in our current culture has such a huge impact on peoples life. There are as many as 1264 genres of music. The most common we hear about are Rock, Pop, Rap and Hip-Hop just to name a few. Music can be a powerful thing when its trying to lead people to christ, but if its use to do the opposite there lays the problem. In Kendrick Lamar's new music video for his new song “Humble,” which sees the California rapper go from golfing atop a car portraying himself as Jesus Christ at the Last Supper. As you watch more of this you see Lamar rapping about making money as he's lying on top a pile of cash next to half-naked women putting dollar bills into money-counting machines. Things like this is exactly what Jesus told us to not be like, he wants
us like him. God despises things like this, that is not what he wanted people to be putting through there ears.
