Was wondering about this recently. Are rappers, singers and the like considered to be false teachers? I am unsure because while some people's music seemingly is neutral - it doesn't point to the King - it is not necessarily leading them astray per se. However, there are those that have lyrics in their songs that are more misleading than others with glorification of mammon, women or what have you. Now I'm def not saying that all are, but just wondering if a portion of them would be considered such because of the aforementioned (misleading lyrics). This topic is very interesting to me and I would love to hear thoughts and such of any one here that has any. Thank you so much.

Certainly not all. Probably some. Maybe many.

Look at the lifestyle that many represent and promote (and I am talking about all celebreties, not just rappers). What is the difference in the RESPONSIBILITY of a pastor teaching and leading his congregation and the RESPONSIBILTY of Brittney Spears to wear underwear. I know that is stretching the comparison, but really how many fans does Brittney influence with her outrageous behaviour vs the pastor with his. He is held accountable (to a higher standard) than his congregation. Yada and KP are at much higher risk than those of us that read their work, because they have the responsibility to not mislead us. These celebreties should be held to the same standard. Woe to him, who causes one of these little ones to stumble.

There was nothing wrong with the rap that you shared on the forum. It was awesome. It was seven hundred times better than tuning into the christian rock station and listening to every song say "how awesome is your name", "glory to your name", your name your name your name.... They don't even know what His Name IS.
