Group1Crew is still alive and kicking! The names have changed a little but the vibe is still the same! I feel they are Christian music’s Black Eyed Peas with the versatility of their sound and the energy they bring.
Manwell Reyes enlists the big voice of Jonathan Thulin to lift the chorus to new heights on the new heater, Heaven.
This is nice! Get it and get churched!!!
Group 1 Crew Feat. Jonathan Thulin – Heaven:
For the wages of sin is death. Ever thought about that? Wages? We associate wages with something earned. If you work for eight hours, you are guaranteed wages. They pay you for what you’ve done. Many of us work HARD for those wages.
But we’re talking about sin. Have you ever found yourself working hard to sin? Think about it. It requires effort sometimes to go against God. Some of us go out of our way to find an opportunity to sin. We make efforts to block out God long enough to do wrong. We expend energy trying to cover it up to keep people from finding out. We work hard to be who we are not. We weren’t meant to follow satan. We were made to love God give Him glory.
But after all the work to achieve that sInstant gratification, it never is really worth it. Is it? In fact you end up feeling dirty, impure, stained. What’s more you have put in work towards the only wages promised—death. Spiritual death.Eternal separation from God. You will actually EARN this. You deserve this.
What if we looked at sin this way? It really wouldn’t be worth the effort would it? It would seem rather pointless. Right? Like why bother?
But do work diligently to know what God expects of us by reading His word. Work hard to live right. Work hard to save the lost. Work hard to help others. And even then you cannot EARN heaven. But God’s grace was shown that His son became the ultimate sacrifice to save us from our sins and death that we deserve. That free gift, if accepted is better than working hard for a spot in hell.
Romans 6:23 KJV
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Blessings in your Christian walk,

Oh yeah, rock to this one from Group1Crew.
Stumbled upon this Christian dance producer on Pandora now I’m tuned in. David Thulin has rocked dance remixes for folks from Beckah Shae to Group1Crew. I can’t wait to hear more!
Check him out and dance like nobody’s watching! Lol!
Christian Music Pusher!
Being an artist myself, I kept thinking about it! What if someone made Christian dance music?? Like David Guetta or Calvin Harris, but with Christian themes and content? That would be crazy. I’m gonna do it! Well, a few artists have made it happen and music fans like myself have been the beneficiary of it! Here are a few artists that are in my rotation right now!
Britt Nicole – “Amazing Life”
Britt Nicole
I discovered Britt Nicole listening on Pandora Music and started to take notice. She has released quite a few albums that seem to perfectly mix pop music and Christian themes almost seamlessly! “Amazing Life” can be heard on her latest effort “Gold” now available.
Capital Kings
Beckah Shae
Beckah Shae keeps on pushing the boundaries of Christian music with ballads, hip-hop soul, even singing over acapella beat boxing with “Scripture Snacks”. Google her! She is nice! Her latest joint is called “Incorruptible” and it a monster that should follow Rihanna on the radio. But this song reminds us of God’s promises through Jesus!
Group1Crew
Group1Crew – “Freq Dat”
Group1Crew, the Christian version of the Fugees (for the old heads) or the Black Eyed Peas (for the newbies). No, this one isn’t really talking about Christian content, but that’s what they do! This record is a clean party record minus the get-drunk, get-high content. Check out thier latest album “Fearless” for songs like “His Kind of Love” that talks about the love Jesus has for us. Rock to this one!
Press Play
Press Play – “Just Like Lightning”
Stumbled upon these kats listening on Pandora! Not sure what direction they go, but it’s all energy and outspoken devotion to God. They’ve releasd a few albums. Check out their catalog on iTunes. Their latest album is called “World Anthem”.
Yes! The first installment from your friendly Christian Music Pusher! Let me know what you think about these songs! There are more out there like Plumb “Don’t Deserve You” from her album “Need You Now”. That’s it for now. Stay tuned and be blessed!
