Religious rap
Rapper Kanye West is getting Biblical in his new music video for Jesus Walks. The video -- which has three different versions airing on MTV, MTV2, and mtv.com -- contains images of Klansmen burning a cross, a prostitute selling tricks, and -- get this -- a Jesus figure magically refilling an empty refrigerator. Despite these overt images, West refused to describe himself as religious. "Religion just means that you do something over and over," he said. "I will say that I'm spiritual. I have accepted Jesus as my savior. And I will say that I fall short every day." Amen, brother.
