My New Favorite Rapper

Posted in Friendly Atheist at 3:01 am by Hemant Mehta

As a straight guy who normally listens to Ani Difranco and the Decemberists, you’ll be pleased to know I have a new favorite rapper.

Greydon Square.

Quantum Physics major. From Compton. Atheist.

Go be his friend.

And then listen to Pandora’s Box and Molotov.

Or better yet, watch them.

Pandora’s Box:

Molotov:

I wasn’t able to download the songs on MySpace, but I was able to when I went to Atheist Nation.

    LOL - “I’m Kirk Cameron’s worst nightmare!”

    That’s terrific, Hemant. Thanks for letting us know about Greydon. One of the things that concerns me is how few people of color - and blacks in particular - seem to affiliate with the (organized, at least) atheist movement. I’m sure the historical relevance of the black church and its connection to the civil rights movement is a big factor.

    That said, it’s great to see a young black atheist speaking up in such a relevant manner. I hope he gets a lot of positive publicity.

    I’ve liked rap since NWA and this was good.
