There have never been any boundaries set between separation of church and the state of rap music and as a result, there have been various religious groups who have called out rappers for their perceived sacrilegious lyrics.
Let’s face it. Hip-Hop falls comfortable under the First Amendment rights of freedom of speech and religion. Furthermore the parental advisory sticker means direct supervision should be enforced as with everything on this seedy planet. However, sometimes rappers get a little too flagrant with their rhymes and spew a healthy amount of blasphemy towards any religion at their choosing.
To celebrate Easter 2014, we at Hip-Hop have decided to give you an alternate take on the holiday and analyze 11 blasphemous rap songs in the gallery.
Scroll through to get a sample of all the records listed. Believe it or not, the content gets progressively worse.

Cam’ron – “Confessions”
Sinful Sermon: “When I thought it wasn’t a sin left/I ran into my aunt/With the fat ass and the thin chest/I don’t really wanna talk about it/Or get in depth/But father I’m gon’ leave you/With this last word called incest.”
Killa had some serious TMI for his priest on his debut album.
Kanye West – “I Am A God”
Sinful Sermon: “I am a god/So hurry up with my damn massage/In a French-ass restaurant/Hurry up with my damn croissants/I am a god!”
Was the Most High rude to waiters and a bad a tipper too?
Ice Cube ft. Snoop Dogg & Lil Jon – “Go To Church”
Sinful Sermon: If you a scared motherf****r go to church/If you a gutter motherfucker do your dirt”
Cube puts the fear of God in his enemies and not the other way around.
Meek Mill ft. Drake – “Amen”
Sinful Sermon: “I’m finna kill niggas in the building (Amen)/I tell the waiter fifty bottles and she tell me say when/And I say church (Preach)/We make it light up like a church (Preach)/She wanna fuck and I say church (Preach).”
Meek tried to act surprised when a trolling preacher took him to task over the song’s content. This made him an easy target.
Rick Ross ft. Kanye West & Big Sean – “Sanctified”
Sinful Sermon: “Groupies in the lobby they just tryna get established/God I’ve been guilty/Fornicating from my status.”
Is it ironic that most hotel rooms keep a bible in their room’s drawers?
Game ft. King Chip & Kevin Hart – “Church”
Sinful Sermon: I’ma crucify that pussy/I’ma nail it here/I’ma nail it there/I’ma mail it here/I’ma mail it there/Doing all this sippin’ Belvedere.”
The unholy communion.
Bone Thugs-n-Harmony – “Mr. Ouija”
Sinful Sermon: Dear Mr. Ouija/I want to know my future/Will I die of murder?/A bloody murder?”
Who, in their right mind, would wish that evil upon themselves? Ricky Bobby.
Lil B “I’m The Devil”
Sinful Sermon: “I’m Satan, I make deals and death wishes/I hate Based God, want to put him on the guest list”
No thank you, troll god.
Big L – “Danger Zone”
Sinful Sermon: “I’m takin lives for a great price, I’m the type/To snap in heaven with a MAC-11 and rape Christ!”
Lamont Coleman didn’t live to see the age of 25. Coincidence or nah?
Main Source ft. Nas, Joe Fatal & Akinyele – “Live At The Barbeque”
Sinful Sermon: Verbal assassin, my architect pleases/When I was twelve/I went to hell for snuffing Jesus/Nasty Nas is a rebel to America/Police murderer, I’m causing hysteria”
Since Nas is God Son’s, does that make him Cain too?
Big L ft. 2Pac & The Notorious B.I.G. – “Deadly Combination (Remix)”
Sinful Sermon: “I’m hard/Jehovah said I’m barred from the pearly gate/F*ck Him, I didn’t wanna go to heaven anyway/But my momma got me on my knees with my hands gripped/Talkin’ bout some ‘praise the Lord’ sh!t/Hail Mary, f*ck her, I never knew her/I’d probably screw her and dump her body in the sewer.”
Let us hope B.I.G. didn’t get his wish. Sheesh.
Bonus: Mobb Deep ft. 50 Cent – “Pearly Gates”
Sinful Sermon: Now homie if I go to hell and you make it to the pearly gates/Tell The Boss Man we got beef/And tell his only Son/I’ma see Him when I see Him/And when I see Him, I’ma beat him like a movie.”
Even 50 Cent felt some type of way from recording with Mobb Deep on their G-Unit debut. Also, that struggle didn’t even rhyme.
