019: Inside the CHH Tension — DJ Mykael V on Gospel Gatekeepers, Dove Awards, and Staying Real
What happens when the “Voice of Christian Hip Hop” says what everyone else is afraid to say?
In this explosive episode, DJ Mykael V sits down with Gerard Bonner to pull the curtain back on the real tensions inside Christian Hip Hop. From gospel gatekeepers ignoring CHH, to the Dove Awards controversy, to Forrest Frank’s viral decision to skip award shows — nothing is off-limits.
Mykael V speaks candidly about:
Why the gospel community still struggles to embrace CHH
The industry politics behind who gets invited, awarded, or platformed
How CHH built its own table after being shut out
Whether Christian artists should attend award shows
What really happened behind the scenes with Sway in the Morning and the first-ever Christian Hip Hop cypher
The pressure to stay silent on social and political issues
Why authenticity still costs you opportunities in Christian spaces
Gerard and Mykael V take you into the heart of the culture — its fractures, its breakthroughs, and its fight to be taken seriously.
If you care about the future of Christian Hip Hop, this is the conversation you can’t afford to skip.
