Bringin The Noise In!

NOISE! This is the statement that i hear a lot when showing people the type of music that i do. Not necessarily because of the gift or the skill level, but just because of the type of music that it is “Bringin The Noise In” means a ton because when you are a person that is doing rap for Jesus you feel a lot of hatred from outside of the church and also believe it or not inside of the church. From the inside of the church they say stuff like “Why are you doing that rap thing its not of Jesus”, “Why are you trying to be like the world?”, “That isn't being played from behind an acoustic guitar or an organ so there is no way that can be of Jesus.” “That has to be Noise.” And from the outside of the church you hear people hating, hating, hating. Saying that they don't want to hear it at all because of the simple fact that it is talking about Jesus. Saying “You're just trying to be like what we make.” Saying "Get that Noise out of here.” So if they say that all we bring is noise then what i'm saying is we are going to “Bring The Noise In.” David in the book of Psalms said make a joyful noise unto the Lord. Not one that consist of a guitar or an organ. Just one that consist of a pure heart of worship. So thats one message that I seek to show through this album. That its the heart behind the music not necessarily the music itself. In a world of so many legalistic mindsets that shun everything if it sounds different than what they are used to hearing. Im trying to tear walls down within the church that have been up for so long that have to do with styles of music. Trying to point at the bible and say look at how Jesus has called us to live as believers. Trying to show believers how we are really called to treat people that dont really believe what we do (Love them like Jesus did). Trying to show a true picture of Jesus not based on my words or lyrics, but based on scripture. So on November 30th, 2010 Archie will be releasing his first album called "Bringin The Noise In" This is definetly not your typical rap album with so many different styles and genres my goal is to break down so many barriers in the church that have been set up based on music. So Enjoy the ride!
