Yeah, when you consider that gospel is a genre with musical traits that can be separated from their traditional chritian message and placed in hip hop or RnB. Not to say that hip-hop and RnB can't have religious themes in their own right.

Sometimes when I come accross an interview with a rapper whose work is decidely un-christian and they claim to be religious, or release a highly religious song it strikes me as a little hypocritical, but I guess it comes down to a personal interpretation of Christianity. It's never really bothered me or turned me off their music though
