Kj-52 Mental CD

2014 album from the Christian Hip Hop artist. A six-time Dove Award winner, KJ-52 has become one of the most trusted names in Christian music as a songwriter, producer, and role model poet. Raised in a rough-and-tumble suburb of Tampa, FL, KJ-52 (real name: Jonah Sorrentino) was the product of a broken home, and eventually found himself mixed up in drugs, drinking, and chasing skirts. At 15 a family member challenged him to take up Christ, and being born again gave him the strength to move on. But rather than give up hip-hop and it's tacit endorsement of sin, KJ poured his faith into his hip-hop. Even his name was a devotional. 'KJ' was an abbreviation of his old rap name, but '52' (pronounced 'five-two') represented the miracle of the five loaves and two fish. KJ-52 believed he was spreading the word of the Lord in much the same way Jesus shared the food in the story.
