Top 5 Producers In Christian Hip-Hop Right Now

Christian Hip-Hop is light years ahead of where it began. At one point in time the Hip-Hop community condemned a lot of Gospel Rap for sounding like a group of amateurs. Today the production on Christian Hip-Hop’s elite can compete with anyone on the billboard charts consistently. A matter of fact Christian Hip-Hop has been getting on the Billboard charts every now and then. Without adequate production a Hip-Hop record will never prosper. Casual listeners don’t even care about the lyrics in music many times. They just enjoy hearing the instrumental. Production is a key component to the process of composing a classic album. Many times rappers undermine the value of a great producer. With that being said, I desire to show respect to some of the best in the game with this post. Here are my top 5 producers in Christian Hip-Hop right now.

1. Alex Medina

Lecrae - Walk with Me – Gravity
Trip Lee – iLove – The Good Life
Alex Medina has been on the Christian Hip-Hop scene for a while now. His consistency is admirable and he has produced many classics. Background by Lecrae featuring Andy Mineo is one of the biggest Christian Hip-Hop songs ever released.

2. Courtland Urbano

Lecrae – Misconception feat:  Propaganda, Braille, and Odd Thomas – Church Clothes
Andy Mineo- Hands High
Courtland Urbano is the main producer for the prolific rap group Humble beast. He has also produced for Lecrae. His sound is unique and is quickly becoming a fan favorite.

3. Tyshane Thompson

Lecrae – Black Rose – Church Clothes
Andy Mineo – Benjamins 
Tyshane Thompson is the most talked about producer in Christian Hip-Hop right now. The 17 year old prodigy has taken the production game by storm. Make sure you don’t miss what he produces next.

4. GROC

Lecrae – Hope – Rehab Deluxe
Ambassador Feat Trip Lee – Live it up – Move Vol.1
GROC’s work ethic is one of the best in Christian Hip-Hop. He has produced for Lecrae, J’son, KJ-52, Cheno Lyfe, Flame, Sho Baraka, DJ Morph, and Trip lee.

5. Anthony Rose aka A.D

Rhema Soul – Celebrate – Red 
Rhema Soul – I need an answer - Red
Anthony Rose is one of the many producers people are sleeping on. I heard two records on Rhema Soul’s “Red” album and he immediately went to the top of my producer list. He has also produced for Social Club, a Hip-Hop crew that is quickly becoming respected by the faith based community.
