C. Hammer. I heard that the Hammer of "Can't Touch This" fame was now a Christian. Same one? Just curious if it is and if anyone knows anything about what he stands for?

Guest yod Posted May 2, 2004 Share Posted May 2, 2004 Yep, that's him.... He is about preaching the gospel and making music that Hank can't do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went bankrupt in the rap music industry and came out of that to be in some form of ministry. He always included some sort of "Christian" song on his albums for what it's worth.

However, for what it's worth, when I was in high school, a friend of mine changed "Your Cheatin' Heart" to a rap tune!!! Not something I ever want to hear again! :suspect: :oww: :x: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(before I was saved) But recently I saw him on some Christian station and he was putting on a performance much like his old concerts. I thought that it looked very secular and I wondered if this was an old airing or something. He was singing some sort of hip hop song and was dancing on stage and it looked like a concert. But as far as his preaching, I've never heard him. If you watch him, or anyone else for that matter, keep a Bible close by. Trust the Bible - question everything else is what I live by.

Johnny hammers with 1 hammer, 1 hammer, 1 hammer Johnny hammers with 1 hammer all day long. "Hammer" with 2 arms. Johnny hammers with 2 hammers, 2 hammers, 2 hammers Johnny hammers with 2 hammers all day long. "Hammer" with 2 arms and 1 foot. Johnny hammers with 3 hammers, 3 hammers, 3 hammers Johnny hammers with 3 hammers all day long. "Hammer" with 2 arms and 2 feet. Johnny hammers with 4 hammers, 4 hammers, 4 hammers Johnny hammers with 4 hammers all day long. "Hammer" with 2 arms, 2 feet, and your head. Johnny hammers with 5 hammers, 5 hammers, 5 hammers Johnny hammers with 5 hammers all day long. Add this verse very slowly at the end complete with lots of stretches and yawns: Johnny's very tired now, tired now, tired now Johnny's very tired now, he goes to sleep.

He became a word-faither. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
