Love this!!!!! You all inspired me so much! I was a freshmen in high school when "Heaven's Mentality" dropped! Inspired me to start a Bible Study on my campus and a Christian Rap Group. Now I'm a pastor and a rapper, still proclaiming God's truths! Thank you! CM Forever!
Devin Turner , Amen! Amen! When I was in Okinawa about to finish my tour back to the United States, a fellow Marine who seemed "different" (happy about SOMEthing about life) handed me this Heavens Mentality cassette tape and back on the East Coast checked them out in Philly and was in one of their music videos. There I met Corey Red.
So many people like me were moved at a young adult age by this music and are now serious about their faith in Christ due to the ministry from these brothers.
Got born again in 1999, grew up listening to rap music and hip hop then joined the body and heard these guys in 2001. They impacted my spiritual life and allowed me to worship and praise using the same medium that I loved which wanted me to deny Him and to take me away from giving Him glory. I understood that I was worthless with my own righteousness but Christ made it possible for all and He is worth it deserving worship. One of the best albums for me from them and they continue to be a movement for Him using the talent given to reach a culture that wants to go its own way and deny His truth. To God be the glory.
I met Cross Movement back in 2000 and they let me know real quick that what I had been doing up until that point was just a hobby LOL!!! These guys would bring the heat like a space heater...
Yooooo! This hits! I remember hearing something old from them that an ex boyfriend let me hear. I don’t think it was this song though. I think they said 1997 at the beginning?? I was 22 then. Ha! Time flies...my goodness!! Keep praying for Phanatik ya’ll! NOTHING to hard for GOD! JESUS is REAL! BE BLESSED! 🙏🏽🙏🏽✝️
+Vincent Davidson he had a heart attack. it happened back in 2009 while he was working as a security guard at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas. He was 35.
Taken before his time. What a talent he was. "Rise shine For the light has come I count all things as dung Compared to the knowledge of God the Son Serious as heart attacks Took off my starters hat Put on my martyrs cap Radical to the core Explore The path we travel Where God overshadows Those whose ways are narrow Glorified apparel We'll sport like new garb We're bondservants of the Christ of the cost The true God The Father brought us back He devised the plan That His Son would bridge the gap Between God and man How else could the Gospel be born? If His bodily form wasn't hostily torn? This be the norm Crusin' heavens highway Representin' Yahweh The fly Way The do or die Way I won't hesitate to take my last breath I'm ready to die cause I possess eternal life after death"
Even since I was introduced to these prophets of God, they have inspired and brought the gospel to the lost and rejected and have even toppled the renowned to humility all in the power of Jesus Christ and His Spirit. Continue to minister and praise be unto the Savior of the world........ah love it........Amen
I guess I must be one of the few if any on this page that noticed and remembers former CM member Earthquake, He's the tall guy in the back with the black/white striped shirt on! He left the group I believe after House Of Representatives CD was released as he only appears on the first 2 CD's! But He was the groups Producer before T.R.U.L.I.F.E. started making beats which was when Human Emergency came out in 2000!
Classic! The best rap group ever, literally always go back to Cross Movement, there hasn’t been any group better since, 100% glory to God, 100% for Christ with no shadiness 💕
I remember my cousin who was Philly Born N Raised, telling me about these heads he would see in the park having rhyme cyphers but they were spittin some ill freestyles reppin The Most High! Mind you this was in 93 when Cross Movement didn't even have a record out and to be honest, it was only a handful of Holy Hip Hop groups at that time! The mos successful ones that had music out were undoubtedly, Freedom of Soul(feat. Co Tunnel Rat founder Peace 586) I.D.O.L. King(Lord Byron, C.O. and Slack fka DJ Cut No Slack) S.F.C./Soldiers For Christ(Super C aka Sup Tha Chemist, DJ Dove) Dynamic Twins, E-Roc, and Gospel Gangstaz who just had dropped their first CD! Based on what my cousin told me, I knew these guys were Tha Truth(pun intended) a few years later when Heavens Mentality dropped, I didn't even have to listen to the CD before purchasing it, I knew it was 🔥and immediately put it in heavy rotation at the Holy Hip Hop spots in LA where I DJed at!
Brady Goodwin a.k.a phanatik please come back to the Lord 😢brother before its too late I 🙏🏿 🙏🏿 your music inspired me to listen and feel christian hip hop all of them did but crossmovement was the best.
so dope! sad that yall fell off and didn't continue leading in the industry. You could be pumping out videos on youtube, leading here. Could be hosting giant contests and opening up opportunities for artists to grow on a sold platform from all over the country even here in canada but now all that's out there is Reach and rapzilla. At least those are the main ones everyone talks about. Anyways.
No Filler Words Productions they didn't fall off. they disbanded. they did all they could do. they older now. time to let younger guys carry the torch. even though some have no fire. Fortunately there are still some that do.
No Filler Words Productions true. i remember back in 1999 this video was on their website. it got removed a few yrs after that. i thought it got lost cause it was never uploaded it untill now
Michael P , THANK YOUUUUUU! Oh maw gawd! What if you could get permission to sell this on iTunes. I switched from Android to iPhone6 and there are only 5 videos purchased onto my cell. The three Cross Movement videos and Prince playing on stage to "As My Guitar Gently Weeps" killing it!!
The Cross Movement, the Best Christian hip hop group ever!!!!!!!!!
Love this!!!!! You all inspired me so much! I was a freshmen in high school when "Heaven's Mentality" dropped! Inspired me to start a Bible Study on my campus and a Christian Rap Group. Now I'm a pastor and a rapper, still proclaiming God's truths! Thank you! CM Forever!

SOLDIERS 🪖 OF CHRIST ✝️, ROCKIN THE FULL ARMOR OF GOD IN THE SPIRIT FROM HEAD TO TOE. PACKING THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT, THE WORD OF GOD . 🙏🏻💪🏻👊🏻🤙🏻
So many people like me were moved at a young adult age by this music and are now serious about their faith in Christ due to the ministry from these brothers.
Literally the best Hip Hop group ever! Glory to Christ!!!!!!!!!
RIP Enock..
Best Christ Rap group, hands down...Respect!

Cross Movement is timeless just like this Cypha Time video so dope love these guys
First group for me who were spitting theologically sound bars over dope beats...changed the game when they came on the scene.
'But when you got a promise, who needs a genie' I love that
I met Cross Movement back in 2000 and they let me know real quick that what I had been doing up until that point was just a hobby LOL!!! These guys would bring the heat like a space heater...
I still jam to this on my iPod and in my car. I had all albums that came from CMR. Please give us a CM Reunion album.
So lyrically superior and spirit filled!
Rest in Christ Brother Enoch. We miss you guys!!!
#PrayForPhanatik
Enoch always went hard with his rhymes. Thank you Jesus for this group.

THE STANDARD. Cross Movement is timeless and set the standard for worshipping Christ with flava in CHH.
2:29 Funny enough, a Christian Wutang is exactly what we need right now!

such a classic....RIP Juan "Enock" James
Michael P how did Enoch die???
+Vincent Davidson he had a heart attack. it happened back in 2009 while he was working as a security guard at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas. He was 35.
Michael P Thanks Michael. Wow, tragic. They had more records to make...
Vincent Davidson but Cross Movement were not together at this time. The group disbanded in 2007. Enock left the group in 2000
Taken before his time. What a talent he was.
"Rise shine
For the light has come
I count all things as dung
Compared to the knowledge of God the Son
Serious as heart attacks
Took off my starters hat
Put on my martyrs cap
Radical to the core
Explore
The path we travel
Where God overshadows
Those whose ways are narrow
Glorified apparel
We'll sport like new garb
We're bondservants of the Christ of the cost
The true God
The Father brought us back
He devised the plan
That His Son would bridge the gap
Between God and man
How else could the Gospel be born?
If His bodily form wasn't hostily torn?
This be the norm
Crusin' heavens highway
Representin' Yahweh
The fly Way
The do or die Way
I won't hesitate to take my last breath
I'm ready to die cause I possess eternal life after death"
Even since I was introduced to these prophets of God, they have inspired and brought the gospel to the lost and rejected and have even toppled the renowned to humility all in the power of Jesus Christ and His Spirit.

Great lyrics!!!
I remember copping that original “tape.” When they made their way down to Crossover the first time… some memories never flea.
Dope lyrics with fire of Christ
There's a reason why Enoch went first! He sets the tone!
I remember my cousin who was Philly Born N Raised, telling me about these heads he would see in the park having rhyme cyphers but they were spittin some ill freestyles reppin The Most High!
