Genesis in Rap Songs
2006/02/13
To celebrate the end of my rap craze and the end of Genesis in theology class, I decided to describe Genesis in rap songs. I'm not sure exactly how blasphemous this is, but be assured I'm going to hell.
There's a few that might not make sense to you. There's also a few chapters I didn't do either because I couldn't think of a song or I didn't cover them in class. Most of the chapters go with the title in some way, but a few are dependent on the lyrics.
