J4J Music Ministries was started in 2006. Our goal is to help Empower, Encourage, and Teach Bible Principles to people everywhere. Today, most of the rap music lovers listen to rap music but the lyrics are not positive at all. Rap artist “J4J” (Pastor Reginald Blanchard) used to be one of those hardcore gangsta rappers (The Mad Mobster) and was well on his way of becoming the next big star. With a recording deal worth $500,000 on the table, he decided to dedicate his life to Christ and turn down the deal because he was tired of living a destructive life. He has a powerful testimony and he delivers the word of God through rap music in a powerful way. It has the same feel, sound, and music as other rap songs have but the lyrics are positive. .
