Game Unveils Controversial “Jesus Piece” Cover Art

  Sooo Jayceon, this is what your giving us for the album artwork of “Jesus Piece”…well it definitely  has received some attention. But really though, putting a ‘5’ in the name of the man up above and turning him into a gang member?! This is extremely blasphemous! He looks more like Weezy than Jesus. All I can do is SMH (shake my head) at you Mr. Taylor.

  Unfortunately, it seems as if many mainstream acts in the hip-hop game are using blasphemous images for shock value i.e. Tyler the Creator and Odd Future.  After all just listen to Frank Ocean in Kanye and Jay-Z’s hit song  ‘No Church in the Wild’ as Frank sings the line “what’s a God to a non-believer?”.  Darker messages in the hip-hop game are becoming more clear and blatant.  It is one thing to be a ‘nonbeliever’ as Frank puts it, however, it seems as if many popular acts of our day going out of there way to put out blasphemous messages. Perhaps they are really answering to a higher power of a darker kind.  What do you guys think?  Comment below.
