| Underground Music Friday — Mr. John Duncan Posted: 14 Aug 2009 02:37 PM PDT
Guess what today is… Drum roll please. Today (and every Friday) is Underground Music Friday. A lot of Underground Christian musicians have been contacting me, asking me to give them a platform to share their music ministries, and I’m gonna give it to them. This week’s artist is Mr. John Duncan. Mr. John Duncan isn’t new to the music industry. He recorded secular music for nearly a decade, recording five albums. Then, with encouragement from his mom, he recorded his first religious song. After recording that song, he knew that music with a message was the way he should go. Since some rappers sound alike, sometimes it’s hard to know who is spitting 16 bars over the tight beats coming from your speakers. Thankfully, that’s not the case with Duncan. That’s because nobody sounds like him. His voice is earthy, and his delivery is sort of an hybrid between rap and gospel. The way he enunciates puts you in the mind of Scarface, but the way his rapping blends with the way he sings the hook, is reminiscent of Bone Thugs and Harmony. His first Gospel project, "The Prodigal Son," was released back in April and has already been an underground success according to his label One Way to Go Entertainment. “I am proud of each and every [song] from my album because each one is a reference to my life story,” he told Gospel Synergy. “Enough for Me is [the song I’m most proud of] because of the impact that it has already made.” “When I perform, seeing the people singing along and getting out of their seat to dance… it’s a wonderful feeling.”
