<p>I grew up listening to classical music, and knowing its spiritual benefits.</p>
<p>However, I also was exposed to rap music.. totally negative, totally demonic. As a youth and into adulthood I still listened to it. I eventually started to write raps of my own.</p>
<p>In the process of transforming my life, my mind, there was a realization ( maybe purely intellectual and not spiritual) that this music contains 2 aspects. The instrumental sound.. and the lyrical content. </p>
<p>I began to experiment with using the instrumental sound, yet writing lyrics that pointed to God. Lyrics that emphasized purification and focused on living for Christ.</p>
<p>But I am conflicted, because I am not certain that the lyrics I write coupled with instrumentals totally rooted in afro-cuban drums, are truly useful to affect people in a positive way.</p>
<p>Am I serving people a plate of good food, on a dirty plate ? I want to abandon any nonsense from my life. There is something about my music which "feels" like it would help people become zealous for God. But another part "feels" that I am appealing to negative energies flowing through the rhythms and drums of the music.</p>
<p>Not sure, but I am sure that my divine mother will confirm this eventually. No time to waste of rubbish.</p>

We should always place our will into the hands of our Innermost. We know that rap music is very degenerated, along with rock, metal, etc. So as to whether it is even practical to compose music in that way is something I personally question. However, I remain open to the idea that God can use anything to attract people to Gnosis. As to whether this is something you should invest time and energy into, that is something only God can answer.
Joyful in hope, suffering in tribulation, be thou constant in thy prayer.
Benedictis, qui venit in nomine Domini. Osanna in excelsis.
"Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest!"

Thank you Benedictus. Conscience is a nagging mother... a loving mother who KNOWS better than you do. I never felt 100% right about it... and that in itself, is why I have left it alone now, and left it in the hands of God.
I recently downloaded an album from iTunes, "100 most essential pieces of classical music" in attempt to draw out those superior emotions Samael spoke of. The first song which captivated me was "Air" by Bach.. Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D Major. Beautiful.
