    --------
    Marvin Sapp came through for his first-ever VladTV interview, and he started off by speaking about growing up in Grand Rapids, Michigan, which he said was very Republican. Marvin went on to speak about living with a single mother at a young age, and he admitted that while he was connected to the church, he was also getting into trouble. When it comes to singing, Marvin explained that his father was a singer, and he sang his first solo in church when he was just 4 years old. Marvin then explained that at 10, he made a commitment to sing gospel music, which he said is the only thing he’s ever sung. From there, Marvin detailed how he started being more rebellious, which led to him being exposed to various drugs, including Lean. Throughout this time, Marvin was still involved in church, including directing the choir, and he went on to speak about having a change of heart at 18. Speaking about his parents, Marvin explained that his mother was a strict disciplinarian, who was raising four boys in the hood, and Marvin explained that her only goal was keeping her sons from being felons. Marvin added that his mother was successful in her goal, and he went on to speak about going to college.

      Vlad don't know shit about Bro Sapp. He's hired a team of people that earned, worked with or for all the types of people that hate his sus ass so they and he get to benefit from his privilege to bring us dope content without ruffling the feathers of artist and writers. Which Vlads punk ass is neither. Respect to the info, but leave the logical art to people that appreciate it, and let the Great White Shark interviews dummies he can manipulate.

We make music TO God. FOR God. That’s why certain churches don’t even allow instrumental or singing solos because it’s all about doing it FOR GOD. Just make sure you know why that music is here. Don’t think it was made for people to enjoy. It’s made to glorify God. Enjoyment is just collateral.

      That's true. I'm from the heart of the Bible Belt and spent my whole youth in church. Some of the purest hearted church people I know have had their share of demons. I agree that it doesn't make you a bad person...unless you're being hypocritically judgmental towards others while doing the absolute most dirt in your own life. I think that a lifetime of witnessing so much of the latter is why so many millennials have abandoned church and/or religion. However, if one is in church and sinning, but humble and willing to pay forward the grace that one desires, then I think that an issue with alcohol or drugs doesn't disqualify one from doing the Lord's work.
