Street Lights - Urban Youth Bible

Street lights bring the idea of getting the bible out to the modern day youth via rapping and hip hop music. They go under the label Humble Beast which believes in giving all their music away for free. This idea has come about because "50 million Americans can not read past the 4th grade level" and "Only 26% of junior highschool students meet the benchmark for reading on the ACT".

I also think its good that the youth (like myself) have the option to know some biblical knowledge and if you can't read then how can you get the message across to the urban youth. Streetlights give the urban youth who can't read the ability to hear the words of god. They are the worlds first audio bible specifically for youth and say it word for word.
