Description

On this episode of Rock in a Hard Place, James and Jon Micah welcome a dear friend, legendary rapper Jonah Sorrentino, also known as KJ-52! The Guinness World Record holder and winner of the “first” Dove Award by a Tooth & Nail Records artist (followed by Jeremy Camp about 15 minutes later) talks about his career, the comparisons to Eminem and his seminal song ‘Dear Slim’, and the challenges Christian Hip Hop faces from the Christian music industry. We talk with Jonah about going to church “in the Shire,” guess how many tours we’ve done together, the infamous “Concert For the Youth,” hashtag Florida Man headlines, and working with producer Aaron Sprinkle for the first time! Jonah shares what still excites him about Hip Hop and where the inspiration for his new record ‘Still Standing’ came from. We discuss the recording of KJ’s song ‘Are You Real?’, which features Jon Micah as a guest vocalist, and the guys even talk about mental-health and how pastors can help break down the stigmas around going to therapy.
