If you have not had a chance to check this interview out, you are missing something inspiriational and spiritual. Sho Baraka is a very tallented indivdual with a strong desire to help people who need to be led to Jesus. He also loves the Lord with all his might. In his interview, there are 2 main topics; his new church called Blueprint Church, and his upcoming album release entitled “Lions and Liars.”
When asked about what the Blueprint Church will be all about and how it got its name, Sho’s response was “The whole idea of the name is to be grounded in the blueprint of Scripture. You’re going to hear a gospel-centered message, you’re going to hear a God-centered message, God-centered singing, God-centered poetry, videos. We’re going to try to do an excellent production, but ultimately it’s all going to be for the glory of the Lord. We have a tag that we go by that states ‘authentically connecting around Biblical truths.’ Our job is to authentically connect, but solely under Biblical truth. We don’t want to connect through being the urban church plant necessarily; we don’t want to connect solely under being people who can understand the hip-hop culture or who can understand the corporate market, or people who can understand Black history or Southern hospitality. We want to connect with people on all those different levels, but through Biblical authority and Biblical truth.”(taken from DaSouth.com )
As far as his new album with anticipation of being released early next year, Sho did not enlighten us as much as we hoped he would. He did however state that his time spent with his friends and fellow artists durring the DWYL tour helped him be challenged by them. Being around people like Lecrae, Tedashii, Trip Lee, Flame, DJ Official (producer/DJ), and Benjah (sound engineer, producer, writer and artist).
