During a recent interview with The Come Up Show, rapper Ghostface Killah surprisingly closed out his interview by speaking on God and prayer. The Wu-Tang rapper shared that people should “stop fronting on God” and should also take part in daily prayer more often.
“What I want to say right now is just stop fronting on God. Keep God in your life man cause God is real. You know what I mean? You go through a lot of stuff because we ignore his signs and stuff like that though,” Ghostface explained to Chedo of The Come Up Show. “And they expect him to answer they prayers or whatever immediately. But I wouldn’t even answer you after you been doing a lot of bullshit and you gonna call on me when you need me when you shot or something. So I’m just saying you gotta give daily prayers…And then you’ll probably have a closer relationship. Your relationship will probably be more closer to God and you’ll be more happy.”
Prior to speaking on God, Ghostface shared his thoughts on what music means to him and cited everything from love to the sound of wind blowing.
“Music is life man, you know what I mean? It’s life. It’s love. It’s the light. It’s everything,” said Ghostface. “Music is really everything because it takes you through different emotions. It depends on how you feeling that day when a certain song come on. And it’s like resting with no music on you hearing the birds chirp at four, five in the morning that’s music too because it’s a sound. Raindrops is music. Snowflakes hitting the floor. Everything is music. Like I said music is the wind blowing. It’s just life. It’s sound…Music helps. It brings us together.”
And on somewhat of a lighter note Ghostface revealed what it takes to put on a successful live show and explained that attending sound check and having a good song lineup are key.
“I always try my best when I go out there. I always try to make sure my lineup is real good where I can always get them involved and play the right songs backing each other,” the rapper explained. “Each song gotta sound right coming in after each other. So as long as my lineup is good and stuff like that it always seems to work out. That’s very important. If you don’t know how to put your lineup together then your show’s gonna be every which way man. I mean you gotta do what you gotta do. This what the people paid for and just do your best. Go to sound check if you could. Nah, I like sound check. It’s very important so you don’t gotta tell the soundman to keep turning your mic up and all that other shit.”

Ghostface is a genius. He is a Living legend in rap, and he is God Centered – just like Krs One, and Killah Priest – that’s why he’s dope, and consistent!
Search this video on youtube – “A Rapper read the Bible?…Yes”
It’s this independent rapper who completley read the Old and New Testaments – and his comments on it – basically telling people – just build and follow your conscience – your heart! Very inspirational!
I support Ghostface! His shows have really succesful and sold out recently! Go Ghostface!!!!!!!
That rapper who did that positive video on the Bible is some hardcore kid from Toronto with like 12 albums out called Admiral Crumple – cat recorded with Kool Keith, Cage, Jus Allah, really dope!
It’s pretty much about following your heart in 2012, mark my words!

Still I guess there needs to be alot more respect for the ladies when you move with Gods people but agree to disagree. Still Big Ghost be one of my all time favourites!
This Icy fuck really gets on my nerve.
The Wu changed the game and layed the blueprint for hip hop families you punk ass pop culture lover. They didnt adapt to the game they changed the game hardbody, world wide people love the clan 4 their underground sound.

LOL @ successful components of a live show when he himself, Raekwon, or GZA never showed up for the Chicago show Sunday….those are the successful components right there….what a joke I want my money back……
yep
For real, I waited months for that day. Then it comes and we have to sit through 3 hours of shitty opening acts just to get an hour long Wu set with no Ghost, Rae, or Gza – my top 3 dudes. That show fucked me up..
prayed over Marvin Gaye’s grave, he said “Ghost! Pop murked me at a early age, hit Dianna back in the day!”
Big Ghost spittin that knowledge. No wonder Wu Tang is for the children.
WU TANG FOREVA

He need to do a gospel rap album then no curse words or disrespectful lyrics towards females.
nah that aint ghost style gospel, he did an rnb album better listen to that then
Ghost is Muslim, bro.. There will be no gospel albums coming from him, ever.
well, at least some Quranic chants… ODB wuda been perfect for that tho RIP
Ghost n’ Wu are real SOLID as a muthafuckin rock. Yeah music is life indeed and Gangsta shet is the only 1.It’s no wonder dat supaproducaz like Dre n RZA are still relevant today coz they original, not fake like em swv, tlc or otha type of shit.
Aint nothing like a Ghost Album, there will never be anything like The Clan.
