Christian hip hop is a style of music many people don’t think about but would enjoy listening to if they gave it a chance.  Unlike Christian Country music, it appeals to more younger religious people and allows them to dance and sing positivity while giving praise.  If you’re new to Christian hip-hop artists and aren’t sure where to start- here are some of the top performers and trends in 2021!

Top Trends

With the popularity of music apps like Tik Tok rising every day, many artists are moving to put out more experimental music that can show their flexibility while still grabbing listeners’ attention and hearts.  The main goal with these artists is to spread the word in a catchy and new way while also building a modest fanbase of listeners.

During 2020, thanks to the multiple lockdowns due to COVID-19, many artists put out surprise singles, albums, and teasers that they wouldn’t have had time to otherwise.  That movement is carrying through into 2021, with several artists set to put out a new album faster than they usually would be able to.

The lack of distractions allows them to connect more with their spirituality so that they can put his words into their music.  Thankfully, the audiences they’re reaching out to are reciprocating fully!

Here are some top artists to keep an eye out for in 2021, each bringing something fresh and useful to the genre.  You won’t want to put your headphones down for even a moment.
