In an era of hip-hop when mainstream rap struggles to stay afloat, Rich Will has become a voice of conviction in the sub-genre of gospel rap with his new single, “G.O.D.” Backed by a refreshing love for the dirt-saturated boom-bap of the ’90s through the Aughts, and surely driven by his study of the blank pages of his Bible, the Texas-born Christian hip-hop emcee has a unique voice in the land of sound that time forgot.
“G.O.D.” is more than a simple throwback to hip-hop’s golden era. It’s a testimony wrapped in raw beats and slick rhymes, every bar feeling purposeful. Rich Will never hide behind metaphors or auto-tuned hooks. He approaches the microphone with a transparency that evokes his faith, yet without losing the tension and edge inherent to hip-hop. His delivery is crisp and self-assured, and purposeful, and he sounds like a preacher with punchlines.
“G.O.D.” is spiritual without being soft, gritty without glamorizing the wrong things. The boombap production does the heavy lifting there, with dusty snares, soulful samples, and that always identifiable, head-nodding bounce. But even with that backdrop, it feels new beneath Rich Will’s storytelling. This is his lane, and he drives it clearly. Rich Will’s genius lies in his ability to fuse old-school spirit with timeless truths.
“G.O.D.” is a mirror held up to a world that’s getting farther and farther away from its roots, musically and morally. His bars pierced through the noise, addressing faith, struggle, and resilience as lived realities. For those unenthused at indifferent lyricism or overproduced beats, “G.O.D.” is a revival. It’s a reminder of why hip-hop was created to tell the truth, to challenge authority, to transform hearts and minds. Rich Will wants you to feel the music, live it, and even rethink what rap can be when it is rooted in something greater. “G.O.D.” Rich Will Wealth Beside creating a playful homage to hip-hop’s past, “G.O.D.” injects it with a new sense of purpose.
