Sunday Oldskool: Armond Wakeup Talks King Los, Part 2

In part two, Armond Wakeup is on the line to discuss the profane balancing act King Los tries to accomplish with the “God, Money, War” album, mixing the holy and the sinful. Armond also shares how hip hop and faith have run together in his own life, and gives an insider’s perspective on the types of spiritual and artistic stifling that encroaches the world of Christian rap.
