Each week, dozens of singles and a handful of projects are released in the Christian Hip-Hop (CHH) and Urban Soul spaces. Below, we have listed a few highlights and included the rest for your review. As always, follow our New Christian Rap and Hip-Hop playlist on Spotify and Apple Music to listen to all the latest.
Steven Malcolm feat. Parris Chariz - "One You"
4 Against 5’s artist Steven Malcolm returns with his first new music of 2025. Produced by iconic Dirty Rice and featuring World 45’s Parris Chariz, this glory-filled ode to our Lord and Savior bumps as hard as any other summer anthem. The fellas emphasize that only God possesses everlasting love, is about to provide unbreakable peace, and can tend to any given situations His children may face. Stream “One You” on Spotify and Apple Music.
Trutha x Bill B. x Chrys Jones - "REAL MEN"
Vanguards artists Trutha and Bill B. team up with producer Chrys Jones for their new single “Real Men” — an anthem for Biblical masculinity in a confused culture. This track combines powerful lyricism and storytelling to deliver a challenge to men over raw production. Trutha & Bill B. unpack what it means to be a man grounded in Christ.
“Real Men” calls out passivity, embraces accountability, and uplifts the call to lead, love, and serve with strength and integrity. A bold statement for the times, this is a record that challenges men to rise in faith and character. Stream "Real Men" on Spotify and Apple Music.
Toyalove - "Show Me"
RMG Amplify’s Toyalove drops her fifth single of 2025. With the lack of masculinity from our Christian men, Proverbs 31-like women demand more; rightfully so. Love is not simply a verb, but an action. Godly men need to answer the call of God to lead their relationships and marriages based on God’s Word. The track is a dope mix of an R&B-likesound mixed with poignant bars from Toyalove. A love song to our God and to the man He has in mind for her. Stream “Show Me” on Spotify and Apple Music.
