    Many black artists came up rough or where once of humble means, and they feel that God has plotted out the course their lives have taken. Mary J. Blige, someone I admire, is open about how God took her out of drugs and other poisons. I feel that Lauryn Hill is very passionate about the Lord, and she is grateful that He opened many doors for her. When she thanks Him for her Grammys, to her the awards signify how God has acted in her life (taking her from point A to point B). She definitely does not see her statues as ‘holier than thou’ trophies. Many black artists are also grateful to God for their talent (talent as a gift from God is definitely biblical). Also keep in mind that countless black artists (Marvin Gaye, Donna Summers, D’Angelo, etc. etc.) got their start in church.
