There once was a
time when the major
ity of clergy wanted
nothing to do with
hip-hop, a music
genre often associat
ed with drugs and
violence. All the
same, astute religious
leaders are now using
most forms of gospel
music to reach out to
local youth and get
them involved in the
church. New
Creation Christian
Church and Pastor
Kenneth Clay will
host Jamaica-born
Bradley Dyer Jr., also
known as JUBBA, in
a video shoot of his
latest single, “Right
Now” on Sunday,
August 12, 2007 @
4:00 pom. A live
concert performance
by JUBBA is to be
filmed that day at
the Hillcrest Baptist
Church on 3045
Deans Bridge Road.

so that their children are pre

informed. “I have no

music ~whatever

divulged. The “Right
Now” is the name of
his single release and
there is a lot going on
with him like his new
CD “Preach Christ.”
“The Holy Ghost
gave me a desire to
hear preachers and
gospel singers return
to messages about
Christ that will save
