I tried to find your personal profile on here, didn't succeed so I thought I'd just post a message. I saw your video response to the "Why I hate religion, not Jesus" video. Yours was titled "Why I love religion and love Jesus". I completely loved your response. I was thinking for a while that someone should do such. I feel like the original video just got popularity because it banked on sensationalism, emotionalism, and was well produced. If there was a response, it had to be better and thou I'm usually the toughest critic when it comes to hiphop/spoken word, I thought that yours was better produced then his. Honestly, I haven't cared for all of your recording in the past, I thought that some of them were low quality on the music and the vocals.

Having said that, this production was over the top. The background composition was far superior to the original video that that other guy posted. And your punchlines were equal to and often superior to that of the original video. Your message of course crushed his message and particularly the line of where you don't doubt his sincerity but that his sincerity has given rise to atheistic opinions. I also was surprised to see that high of video quality.

So, I just wanted to say peace to you. You spoke not just for Roman Catholics but for Copts on that video response too. At this point, I doubt that you need production from me, but I got you if you ever do.

My bad, I didn't see that you guys already had a thread on this... you can delete it if you want or not. I don't care either way.

I really appreciate your kind words and the compliments. Honestly, I must thank Spirit Juice Studios, Dustin here at Phatmass, at Manuel3 for his mixing of the music. It was a group effort and I was blessed to be a part of it. I wanted it to be firm, direct but also loving. Responding with "How you like me now?!?" never really seems to work. Being in that beautiful sanctuary with Our Lord Jesus in the tabernacle really helped set the tone for those hours of recording. We spent time praying together and working hard. So again, thank you.

p.s. I'll try to work on that quality of music thing with my next project. Thanks.

In Christ,
