Sabbatical: A New Start
On July 21st, 2007 the DJ announced his retirement of the christian hip hop scene having lost his inspiration to make hip hop music, the questionmarks regarding hip hop's effectiveness as a ministry tool and his new found love of making worship music. Thankfully this did not turn out in a real farewell, but in a sabbatical period, as DJ CreOne explains on January 18th, 2008: "I'm back doing hip hop again, I've found a way to do both types of music. I'll probably still make a few just regular underground beats here and there, but I think the new stuff I'm gonna work on with Vocab Malone is going to be way different and hopefully reach more and more people. I'm also working on worship music, which is really exciting as it proves that I can do both types of music without contradicting myself or the music."
