After watching this interview, I've come to turns with the fact that I'm not 100 with God and that I need to be at that level. I got so much goodness, but I've noticed I truly have been blocking my own blessings. I'm tired of simply being good, I want to be great! Please keep me in prayers people
I never heard of dude before, but I respect positive people that invoke thoughts to run through your mind even about your own life and the path which needs to be taken!
Nothing like an educated black man who loves the Lord! Amen. This dude is the truth, he speaks with so much wisdom, inspiration, and most importantly godliness. Dee-1 is a breath of fresh air. It is good to see him doing God's work. God Bless him, I know for sure he is going to be something Big! :-)
Finally found this interview he talked about in his song. Loved his testimony and I can relate to being different in certain environments when it comes to God. Just need to be real with Him.
@Ralik.. the 49 yr old that called in.. man I'm just now seein' this, but I'm prayin' that you stayin'.. right in the Lord. You touched many when you poured out your heart. Thank you for showin' your strength in your weakness. You're a strong man. I'm prayin' now for Dee1 too. I'm grateful for Sway treatin' this the way he did. I hope they keep in touch. That's thst salt of the earth we're supposed to be, and people respect and feel real. That's God. Praise God, and thank you Jesus.
HalleluYah! I was not even ready for this interview ! I didnt even hear about Dee-1 til yesterday!!!Has to be the greatest most transparent interview I have ever watched! I teared up forreal because I feel the pain but ultimately the triumph! Heaven is for overcomers! Humbling to watch! I dont keep up with the so-called "mainstream" but this has DEFINITELY strengthened my FAITH to see the Most High truly moving through this young brother! I pray he touches the masses and fulfills the promise! Showing them how to be the greatest as Yahshua (Jesus) is and will always be! HalleluYah. and the guy that called in bless his soul, He was crying.Wow. We will overcome the tables have turned! This system is going down down down. Hold on The Most High wont forsake us! SHALOM!
I'm new to Dee-1 but from what I've seen so far I commend him on his strive to walk in purpose. Society has this stereotype for men and women and it can be challenging for some to break the mold and walk with God. All the best 🙂
I been rocking with Dee-1 for a long time now. I am glad to see him get his shine. He has paid dues twice. He and I are in the same mind frame; no more being good. It's time to be great.
This interview had me tearing up, I needed to hear that talk about keeping it 100 all the way with God and not being double-minded. Hearing he came out on top from the same spiritual battle I'm facing right now is just...encouraging to say the least. Great interview Sway.
I love Dee-1 and the message God has given him to spread to everyone. He knows he's here for a reason, which we all are. Ive been battling many demons myself but with much prayer Ive decided to finally give my life to God. I know the journey wont be easy, but I know Im destined for greatness and to help the youth of my hometown and the ppl of the world. Thanks for having him on your show, his music/message gives me daily inspirations. 3's UP
Finally someone keeps it 100 after making it to the top (BET Cypher, Sway in the morning, performing live with big names in secular music). Dee-1 kept it real, transparent and authentic. It really takes the Holy Spirit conviction to expose someone being double minded. Dee-1 admits that the vision should have never been try to change rappers to Christianity, but the mission and the vision is to let God take complete control of the music and not ever worry about pleasing the people. Bizzle from the start new this was more of a self driven ambition, and not the voice of God telling you (chart the boards, sell out concerts, be number 1 on iTunes and make it on the tonight show) and then secular rappers will take you serious. Only because now that your on TV, rock expensive cloths and make lots of money, now your officially qualify to share the gospel to a secular Artist base on all your achievements. But even in that Dee-1 said it himself, Its hard to witness to secular rappers in an ungodly environment, beside that point most of them don't even want to hear that Jesus can save you from indwelling sin. All these Rapper who happen to be Christians, and not Christian rappers music is mediocre and their perceptive on Christianity our lukewarm. Do your self a favor and stop calling Christian Rap WACK, because in reality not being truthful and honest at the end of the day is whats really WACK. Thank You Dee-1 for being honest with yourself and truthful to the Christian community about being double minded. Many people are being deceive with this sugar coated agenda. Shot out to the big homie Eshon Burgundy for speaking up on twitter. I've been peeping you since you drop the RedCloud response
Probably the realest interview I've seen in a while & I watch multiple interviews a day. Much respect to Dee-1, got chills multiple times throughout the interview.
Im very proud to see my brother at this level. When I found out he was rapping it was cool, to see him on the cypher was dope, watching this interview was mind blowing. This dude has always been gifted and different. The two greatest days are when you are born and when you find out why. God bless you homie. Don't stray from your mission ever. From you boy J. AMS in the building.
The boy surprised me on that B.E.T award cypher, did his numbers no doubt. Been seeing his name posted on blog sites but never really paid attention until now (I hate giving B.E.T that much credit lol). Shouts to him though, hope he go on to do great things.
Dope man!! I loved the fact that he's gonna say what God put in his heart without worrying about trying to appeal to standards of what people want.Stay on that man for real. People need more of that.
I love Dee-1!! Been riding with him for a minute. Yo Dee1 God gone send the folks you need to reach dont worry about who you need to reach. Im praying for you Bro!! Love.
I been riding with Dee-1 since he dropped Psalms 1. I'm glad i found him one of the best in th game right now. His message overall and his flow is killa. 3's up from tx mane.
You have a good heart brother. Keep doing ya thing and God will continue to Bless. (Song I'm not perfect is one of my fav songs). I'm a Christian as well.
The rappers apart of this movement are very few but our outlook on the music we make is this: You cannot ignore TRUTH once it's in your ears. You can believe God is a myth. But if you've heard this music at any time in life you just welcomed a pure gift from God into your spirit therefore OUR work is done. Think whatever you want to that's why the Father gave free will but those of us willing to revamp our thinking and go against the norm WILL have the best in life. This is love music. When you love yourself you loving God too because you were made in HIS image. Believe that!
It is so great to see him grow in Christ Jesus I use to say he is half way in the world and half way in God...I am from South Central LA where you had to pick a side and roll Hard. Roll with Jesus 100%
Enjoyed the interview dee-1. God was in the presence while you where speaking. The man doing the interview was throwing out negative reponses and by you speaking the truth the devil respones was shut down. Keep speaking gods truth
I just want to give thanks to the Lord for reintroducing you into my life. I really felt what you said about doing good for three months, and then going back to the bad habbits. Man that touched my heart right now. I just cried my eyes out because everything u felt, I did too. I need my kleenex. Thank you Jesus. I needed that sign to remind me to get on the right path. I have to stop being a hypocrite.
So touching! God is really doing something in this generation and is raising up giants for the Kingdom. Gosh, I relate to everything he's saying. I respect him and am a supporter. I pray he continues to keep living for God.
I was immensely inspired by this interview. Thank YOU LORD for this man's life. Thank You Sway for giving this man a platform to share his GOD given gifts and wisdom and thank you Dee-1 for contending for the faith. Much love and respect especially for a 504 brother.
Totally love Dee-1. His music is real and straight what the Almighty has for him to say. I completely admire his courage and his passion for following Christ.
The God we serve is for real in your life. Even before you mentioned the prophet not being welcome, a thought came across my mind about you ,you are a prophetic rapper ordained by God to speak life to other by your music. God bless you, my brother!
First time I have heard about this dude but wow! This was actually deep. I respect anyone out here trying to live a good and honest life and that's what he is. Respect this my brother.
yo thanks alot for this interview man, dee 1 is the best example for rapper i really mean that, this video almost gave me tears to my eyes dude, i litarally wrote every impacfull thing he said in my notebook were i writ all my lyrics down man, dee 1 if you ever read this, you did your job, you change my out look on life my relationship with God and brought so much convection dog thank you man so much bro, God bless
finally...Conscious Christian rap still alive...big shout out to Dee-1 and your movement..#WAKEupCONSUMERS... Dee-1 please do a Edutainer tour to Africa, too many hip hop(hell hop) listeners who are brainwashed and misled...I like your message through your ''Jay,50,Weezy'' track...that joint dank.
Preach it! Rap it! Continue to inform the WORLD your testimony! You Live only for the ONE who died on the Cross for YOU and rose Again on the '3rd" Day! YES! Christ is the three R's... the three fingers you throw up and represent! God is with you... your circle is rich and fuller than you know! You are in the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords ARMY. For Christ I LIVE and for Christ Jesus, I die. God is Good and His mercy endures forever. God is Love.
One of the realist interviews ever. This interview inspires me to have a stronger walk with God and not be afraid to be open about my Chrstianity in non-Christian circles.
I seen alot of nice mc s that God had called and for a split second they wrote bars about the Lord and lived the Christian Life then when they saw that people thought they was corny or getting religion on they go back to the world of Fame and their ex God money...they serve that master again....like dmx Cassidy and other cats but Dee 1 is for real I see his heart this dude is stacking chips in heaven reppin for the Lord God bless u man and dudes like him lecrea Andy mineo trip Lee and other rapper that never sold their Lord out for Fame girls and money.....all is temporary heaven for real and all that u do hear on earth is eternity.....word up

And thanks Dee-1 for your transparency
I got you Rhyne...it's time to shine! Jeremiah 1:19
Rhyne Cureton Well said. How old are you? if you dont mind me asking?
Take those same words or similar to God
Realest comment I've read. Prayers going up.
I have a lot of respect for this kid and I really enjoy his anointing yes I said anointing. He is such a blessing I will be keeping him in my prayers.
Lynne LovesHim amen!
I never heard of dude before, but I respect positive people that invoke thoughts to run through your mind even about your own life and the path which needs to be taken!
Yea I agree with you on that this man rite here is going to be some big in life and going to go far with the man above behind him
If your feelin his stuff check out "Stephen the Levite", hes got a similar message and crazy flow.
Nothing like an educated black man who loves the Lord! Amen. This dude is the truth, he speaks with so much wisdom, inspiration, and most importantly godliness. Dee-1 is a breath of fresh air. It is good to see him doing God's work. God Bless him, I know for sure he is going to be something Big! :-)
When you rap you are still preaching and teaching. You can do both. Much-Love.
Finally found this interview he talked about in his song. Loved his testimony and I can relate to being different in certain environments when it comes to God. Just need to be real with Him.
Best interview I heard in awhile... Much respect for Dee-1.. we need more people like him to spread the good word..
@Ralik.. the 49 yr old that called in.. man I'm just now seein' this, but I'm prayin' that you stayin'.. right in the Lord. You touched many when you poured out your heart.

His boldness and security in his identity is so inspiring.
I been rocking with Dee-1 for a long time now. I am glad to see him get his shine. He has paid dues twice. He and I are in the same mind frame; no more being good. It's time to be great.
Oh I am praying for his success.

Man this dude! Much respect for his passion to be a better man! We all have demons we deal with!
Interesting .Nice honesty is a good thing.

I am so PROUD OF DEE-1. You have set the standard. You had me in tears. Thank you for standing firm in what you believe in.

Dawn this guy really understands himself to be able to explain and grow on camera is amazing. He knows his potential
I love how even in the mocking Dee1 looked over it and continued to uplift Christ.
