Khul Rhema produces an album that manages to bring crunk sounds to reach out across the gospel and secular divide and mash up any hip-hop dancefloor, such as "Throw Em Up". What we have is an album of bouncy, sub bass-driven kicks, syncopated hats and rolling, snappy clappy snares. The message of this 'Souljah for Jehovah' ("Grindin") is clear, whether it be a determination to give God his best and keep it real for Christ ("Get Loose"). This is an album that gives props and glory to Christ in every area of life and come against the evil one and his schemes, such as in "Praizin God" which brings an almost old skool feel. Khul Rhema is not afraid to quote from the Word across the album which brings an extra dimension and also mixes things up with a poem, "Frienemies" and a spoken word track telling us that "God is love and that's what the world needs now." A strong album.
