While sports fans and pundits are having a great time riding and clowning on Denver BroncoTim Tebow and his Christian beliefs, Green Bay Packers' cornerback Al Harris is taking his evangelism a step further – he's making a rap album.
Harris connected with childhood friend Kevin Soto to create a rap album with a Christian influence. Harris says that he plans to drop the album later this year on his recently launched label, 31 Entertainment.
"We're trying to start a movement with this music," Harris told the Sun-Sentinel. "We're trying to say that you don't have to cuss, or have to sell drugs or whatever, to be cool. You can still be cool and fly, and love the Lord."
While Harris was making his way to the NFL, Soto was in and out of jail. He turned his life around and hope to send a message that there's another way to approach life:
"A lot of the album is about being a man," Soto said. "A lot of it is telling everyone what I've done, and this is what it can lead you to, and what [Harris] has done, and where that hard work can lead you to."
