CHH Headed to 26th Annual Rolling Lound

The 26th annual Rolling Loud is continuing to make space for Christian Hip Hop in a way that would’ve been unthinkable just a few years ago. For the second year in a row, the world’s largest hip-hop festival is featuring an official Christian rap set—signaling that CHH is no longer knocking on the door of mainstream culture, but walking onto the stage.

This year’s Chosen Journey set includes 1K Phew, WHATUPRG, Caleb Gordon, Nathan Davis Jr., Kijan Boone, and Anike—a lineup that reflects the stylistic range and cultural fluency of today’s CHH scene. The set will take place May 10 at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, placing faith-forward hip hop in front of one of the most influential crowds in music.

What makes this moment especially meaningful is context. We covered the first-ever appearance of Christian artists at Rolling Loud, when CHH made its debut on the festival’s platform and challenged long-held assumptions about where faith-based music belongs. That initial moment wasn’t symbolic—it was strategic. It opened the door for continued presence, not a one-off gesture.

This second year confirms what many already knew: CHH resonates beyond church walls. It speaks the language of hip hop culture while carrying messages of conviction, hope, and purpose. Rolling Loud’s continued inclusion of Christian rap signals a shift—one where faith-driven artists are recognized as part of hip hop’s broader story, not an outlier to it.

Christian Hip Hop isn’t asking for permission anymore. It’s being invited back.
