Da'T.R.U.T.H. has Tweet exchange with renowned author Ravi Zacharius
GRAMMY-nominated hip-hop artist Da'T.R.U.T.H. shared a cryptic
exchange with internationally respected Christian apologist and author
Dr Ravi Zacharias via Twitter last week, and it triggered a worldwide
internet response. With questions surrounding the idea of truth, God
and religion, thousands of readers shared their concern for the
outspoken artist wondering if he was questioning his faith. In reality
it was revealed that Da'T.R.U.T.H. wasn't confused about his Christian
beliefs, but he and Zacharias were sharing lyrics from his new single
"Religion". The track is from the rapper's forthcoming album 'It's
Complicated' to be released in the spring.
Speaking about
his Tweet exchange Da'T.R.U.T.H. said, "Yes, I wanted to reveal my
single, but more than that, I wanted to share REAL thoughts and
concerns that I have struggled with throughout my life. Is there one
true religion? Is it arrogant to be exclusive? Can we be certain that
Christianity is the only religion that God acknowledges as true? Many
people, Christians included, struggle with these questions, and I want
them to know they aren't alone. Through this song and my entire album,
I want to provide a soundtrack that articulates some of the internal
twists and turns that people experience concerning exclusivity in
religion and ultimately start a discussion among each other and
together we can resolve the one that has to be true."
