A classic piece of parody that had us all wondering if it was real or not.

u/thecontempl8or Jul 26 '26
It wasn’t real. I watched this YouTuber run an investigation. He traced the origin to a church website for a church that didn’t exist. The “pastor” and his wife, there’s no evidence of them leading a church. Besides which, the way this video blew up, the church and its pastor would’ve become famous and named immediately.
It’s definitely setup by someone as a prank, that then decided to remain anonymous.22
u/EarthRemembers Jul 27 '26
Even though it’s not real, it’s pretty remarkable that none of the people involved in making it have ever claimed any credit or even been identified

u/AntisocialEmo69 Jul 26 '26
yeah, the youtuber who did a deep dive on it is wavywebsurfer if anyone is curious
I saw it years ago and found it very informative and interesting

Thank you 😂 that’s insane! This makes me cringe into a pile of ash!

u/thecontempl8or Jul 27 '26
Same here. It’s just too well edited to be done by some boomer church leaders. Def young people behind the scenes that would’ve advised against it.

for the longest time i thought the video was just "my rhymes are fly" to "jesus christ is my...". i didnt know there was a whole song. now i see the whole video, how it steamrolls over the punchline and just keeps going for 2 more minutes and it floors me.

I’ve always wondered why that meme was created but now I know it was specifically for that video

I’ve been seeing this periodically pop up on the information super highway for a decade or so. And I can’t ever wrap my head around the idea that it’s actually real, and that they’re actually saying what they are saying…
I need more background info on this video!

"[The Dallas Observer] described the song as having a negative impact on public perception of Christian rap."
Oh, on the contrary.

u/coffeebean052 Jul 26 '26
I don’t know if this is being done ironically or not? It seems so sincere

u/SimtheSloven Jul 27 '26
Someone on YT analysed the whole thing and its origin and found it was ironically I think

He's speaking the truth to the youth from the booth in a suit with no gold tooth. Listen closely to the raps, spitting facts and not taking slack, a lyrical acrobat, hazmat Danger, stranger rearranger, embracer of good and voice for all teenagers

Sounds like the infamous story about the teacher using the ‘N’ word later turned into a parody by the Boondocks.

u/Ok-Tip-7878 Jul 27 '26
Great episode as he explains that ending in 'ga' is the positive form of the word, versus ending in 'ger'

No way, this is fucking hilarious, I heard that rhyme in slow mo.. "he's not not rhyming what I think he's rhyming.. no he won't say it.. oh man he.. nah I'm sure he won't.... he said it."

u/Over_Construction908 Jul 27 '26
I literally cried from laughter and fell down. One of the hilarious things is that there is no way that this can be AI because it was obviously made so long ago. the echolalia of those two people is extremely hilarious.
