Who knew Jon Keith would be the modern gateway to CHH for those who listen to Sway?😅 Lecrae, Andy Mineo, and KB are of course our big three based on their influence on the genre.❤
How is it controversial to say Kendrick Lamar is the GOAT? If he quit today who has a better discography? Who made a bigger impact on music? Who covered more subject manner and showed you more styles and flows and cadences and vibes? He’s got better consistency than anyone else. He’s already proven longevity. And the level of artistic intelligence the man possesses is astounding. Greatest of all times 🐐
I felt the thumbnail was clickbait! Jon never even addressed WHY he felt KDot is the GOAT. One sentence, then moved on. Which is fine. But don't lead the audience to believe there's gonna be a discussion on the topic. Annoying!
@@leandroportillo1234 Em is the only one on that list that can compete with Kendrick - but Eminem doesn’t have the artistic intelligence that Kendrick has, based on the names you put above kdot I think a lot of his music goes over your head bruh, with all due respect
Been listening to Jon Keith since 2020. I always knew he was gonna blow up but man it’s been a journey. Can’t wait to see where his career goes from here. The EREMOS and Olympus albums are fantastic. Anti-Hero and SUMMERTIME are fire too. Y’all keep sleeping on the dude.
Thank you Sway for continuing to give Gospel Rap/CHH artists like Jon Keith a platform to introduce themselves to a broader audience and spread The Word about The Lord Jesus Christ! Please continue to do so Brother! Definitely need to get the rest of Indie Tribe on here!
@@treycarter7826there’s nothing to break down. Nas might have more misses but that’s because he’s had a career twice as long….thats going to happen if Kendrick keeps recording for another 20 years. But Nas is rapping better and making better music at 50 than damn near everyone….thats never been done before. He is honestly the GOAT of this. But Kendrick is definitely up there with him.
@@treycarter7826 Black thought and 3 stacks are 2 of my top 5’s…but thought has never done any real solo albums on a consistent basis (Roots albums are ROOTS albums) and 3 stacks has only done one solo-ish album with love below. Nas has the best album ever in Illmatic, a classic follow up with it was written, Stillmatic, God son, life is good, the lost tapes, kings disease trilogy and Magic….all of which are either certified classics or close classics. What’s a classic roots album? Things fall apart? That’s it. Hov has RD, blueprint, black album, hard knock life….3 classics. Nas has arguably 7 classic projects bro…that’s an insane output over 30 years. Some of the most classic features ever (incarcerated Scarface’s, live at the bbq, etc). Nas has had like 3-4 primes, he keeps finding new ways to create and reinvent himself. Who is doing what he’s doing at 50? Nobody bro…he’s the only one to ever be this good THIS long. It’s not a weak argument, i just listed facts. An opinion is a weak argument, facts are irrefutable.
O my word!!! When ppl ask my kids who is their fav rapper is they always say Jon Keith! It was Cross Movement and Gospel Gangsters for me, Lecrae and Andy for Jon Keith, It is all Jon Keith and Nobigdeal for my kids! I am still mad u cut ur hair. Lol! I love that line because I was actually mad! Honey Blonde is my fav album
Totally relate with Jon, I grew up on Don Moen, Hillsong, M W Smith, Ron Kenoly…cats could get surprised when they realize I don’t know mainstream artists & songs
You think he’s the Goat fr? That’s interesting. I’m 40, I always like to hear the perspective of my age group, my 43 year old cousin would agree with you and I always remind him of how much dope material we, and when I say we, I mean us, you included, 80’s babies have heard. You think he’s the that good? I might have to re-dive into his catalog.
@i.m.6758 yes I'm super young but I listened to scarface hov nas black thought 3 stacks etc and kendrick is the strongest contender I'm not mad with anyone being goat but this nigga kendrick career is impeccable
@@treycarter7826 oh I didn’t mean no disrespect to the younger generation. Most of them just vibe different that’s all. You got amazing taste by the way. At this age Kendrick reminds me of 3K. A lot. Don’t get me wrong I think he’s upper echelon, but at the same time look at who you just listed. Those artist have jerseys in the rafters already.
@@i.m.6758 *I can't argue with someone that says Kendrick (is goat)* because ultimately guy has one of the most consistent quality catalogs ever. And to your point: 3K yep. He's a student. A culmination of the lyrical theatrics of Wayne, the technicality of Em, the emotive conscious writing of Pac, and the creative engaging flow with offbeat edge that of Andre. Lupe is my GOAT personally. However, I'm not gonna debate the conclusion of KDot being *_the_* 🐐
I use to be one of the ones with the secular music but I cut that out after getting put on with CHH. Has settled my spirit and thoughts since. All glory be to God.
West Indies is a dope project title for two indie West Coast rappers collabing. Brilliant. Miles Minnick is dope too. I found out about him through his song with LaRussell “Remote Job”
BIG UP Jon Keith. It don't have to be 'Christian' to 'glorify' God. The art and skillset shown by musicians/artists in and of itself is glorifying because they are displaying what they have been gifted with, regardless of content. CHH community needs to learn the difference between 'skill/art' and 'content'. You can trash the 'debauchery' in the messaging/content. But you can always appreciate the skill/art. Tree's don't preach. But they are still beautiful.
Please check out Jackie Hill Perry! Her pen is crazy! Top tier storytelling! She is a pastor that just happens to be dope at rapping, she doesn’t even take it seriously tho 😅 she doesn’t want the fame i guess but man she is dope!
I love how Jon talks about specifically excellent art that’s Christian. And the world can’t help but take notice vs. Art that’s Christian but not hittin with anybody because it may be stifled creatively. Such a nuanced convo amen
I love this interview with Jon Keith he dope , PLEASE BRING J MONTY HES ONE OF THE BEST LYRICIST IN CHH BRO IS FROM CHICAGO HE GOT A PROJECT CALLED TESTIFY IT HAS LIKE 15-20 SONGS IN IT
Definitely going to add your songs to my set list. The only reason I don't even bother with Christian music is because I know its crappie. I heard it growing and had no interest actually playing it but I like his drive and do it
The quality of the music in Christian music is excpeptional good right now. Beside Jon Keith artists you can check out are: Nobigdyl J monty Caleb Gordon Indie Tribe
@@JordanGordon8 I will definitely check them out Jordan. Thanks for sharing. I took a lot of inspiration from this interview. Especially the studio time idea as I am in a position to implement this with my projects. I am announcing soon. Its rude o say it here as its Sways Channel but dude done me a solid that I just couldnt say it
So dope to see my brother Jon Keith on here 🎉🎉🎉

Jon Keith is mad humble. He one of the biggest names in CHH (Christian Hip Hop). Him, nobigdyl, Caleb Gordon are dope
Agreed. The last 3 Indie Tribe projects are better than 95% of secular rap
m-m-m-m-m-MAJOR FACTS
Fr. The fact that he's using this interview to shoutout other artists freely shows that
Tell em
Oh yes! Hands down
Love that Sway rocking with the Christian Rapper's 💯
Christian creatives are on the move! 🚀 All for God's honor and glory! 🙌🏼
"Lecrae was my Tupac... let me rock" haha I love it 😀
Proud to have watched Jon's career since nearly day one, and there was never a question he would be here. IT'S IN GOD'S HANDS
Jon Keith on sway means the world is healing

Probably my favorite song of the year.
I really like the people we're becoming
23:30 and I quote “ If You Ain’t Praying For Me, Take Me Off Your Playlist !” The 🥶 Bar I’ve Heard All Year !
Who knew Jon Keith would be the modern gateway to CHH for those who listen to Sway?😅
Lecrae, Andy Mineo, and KB are of course our big three based on their influence on the genre.❤
Clicked for Kendrick in the headline and discovered a dope new rapper. Salute to the headline selector

Kendrick will go down having the greatest rap discography ever all classics no misses and some of the greatest disses ever
I felt the thumbnail was clickbait! Jon never even addressed WHY he felt KDot is the GOAT. One sentence, then moved on. Which is fine. But don't lead the audience to believe there's gonna be a discussion on the topic. Annoying!
It’s controversial because he’s not the goat. Not over Hov Ye Wayne Drake Cole Nas Em Biggie PAC. At best he’d be 8
Only arguments people had against Kendrick was that he wasn’t “battle tested” that’s gone now.
@@leandroportillo1234 Em is the only one on that list that can compete with Kendrick - but Eminem doesn’t have the artistic intelligence that Kendrick has, based on the names you put above kdot I think a lot of his music goes over your head bruh, with all due respect
This interview made me smile on a crappy day. Grateful
CHRISTIAN HIP HOP IS HERE!!!
Wooo Jon Keith got movement!💪🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 May God receive all the Glory!🙌🏽
Happy for Jon Keith to have this moment to share Jesus and his life story as a testimony to impact all who tune in to draw closer to the Lord.
Kendrick the Goat
Nas is his father, PAC is his Father, Wayne is his big bro, Jay Z is his Uncle, Snoop is his Uncle, Rakim his Grandfather, stop the Cap
You got to listen to Jackie Hill Perry. She is one of the best female rappers out there. Girl can spit
Facts ❤
Tukool Tiff is also definitely one to watch out for🤞🏽you can thrown in LaNell Grant in there too

Skills and style
His big 3 is right for sure
