Emily Faith, Laudr8 - Rebel (Remix) (CEDM)

Emily Faith, Laudr8 - Rebel (Remix)
Emily Faith, Laudr8 has released a Christian EDM (CEDM) track called Rebel (Remix).

Emily Faith expands her country and pop sensibilities with an EDM remix of her song Rebel. The song is a stunning combination of country, EDM elements and Christian music that Emily has been working on for the past five years. 

"While I loved pop and it was fun, I did not want to lose my roots. That's why I wanted to bring Country into the Christian music I was making and combine the two genres," Emily emphasizes, explaining the heart behind her forthcoming projects. "It's been a really awesome journey - finding the perfect mix between country and Christian. I hope it connects with people while staying true to who I am."  

As a 16-year-old, Faith debuted into the contemporary Christian space in 2017 when she opened for the Newsboys "God's Not Dead - Rivals" tour, and shortly after that, for FOR KING & COUNTRY. She released four singles after joining the CCM realm, drawing heavily on her pop influences.  

In her music and lyrics, you can hear an openness and a sense of true connection. It is Faith's primary mission as an artist to write songs that relate to people in a variety of environments and circumstances. Faith's songs are inspired by her own personal experience with faith and culture and bring a sense of settled happiness while encouraging listeners in their faith.

"[My songs are] very raw, very real, connection and relationship-based, and often very fun and even spontaneous," she notes. "I want to form meaningful relationships with people through music." 

Faith also volunteers as a music teacher at Granville Community Music School in Oklahoma City, a school that serves underprivileged communities. This uniquely combines her calling as a musician with her Christian faith. 

"That is by far my greatest passion. Working with those kids and getting to share the gift of music with them has been something I've cherished for the past three years," Faith says. "As Christians, that's something we're called to do - give back to others and be leaders in our community while shining the light of Christ. It's been a great place to connect, give the children something to look forward to each week, and bring some joy into their lives."


Lyrics: 

Staring at my screen
See the hurt and fear
Sticks and stones get thrown - I’m On the edge of tears

Tough to not lose heart - when I Look around these days
World with so much dark Weighing down my faith

(pre)
Trying hard to drag me down
But I’m gonna stand my ground - won’t Let go of this strength I’ve found

(chorus)
Call me a rebel
I won’t give up hope
I’ll keep believing
God’s still in control
There’s reason for every moment There’s a love that won’t let me go - so Call me a rebel
A rebel
I won’t give up hope

(verse)
I know what to do
Shut the world away Spend some time with you Starts to lift the weight

(pre)
You’ve got each moment in your hands You see beyond the things I can

I want the future you’ve got planned Your power gives me strength to stand

REPEAT CHORUS

(bridge)
Go against the grain Stepping out in faith Don’t care what they say

"Boxes" by John Long: Breaking Free from Religious Boxes

(by Jasper Tan) John Long’s “Boxes,” written with Dustin Smith, is both a reflection and criticism of how we oftentimes allow ourselves to be limited (“boxed”) with our faith. Using the “box” as the core metaphor of the song, it represents our self-imposed (or community-imposed) limitations with religious traditions that prevents genuine a genuine relationship with God. John emphasizes that these limitations often run into conflict with the original intentions of God, to have a free flowing holy communion with God. The song is characterized by our sense of longing and our desire to re-approach our Faith with clean hands and a pure heart. From the opening lines itself, we are challenged to evaluate the current status of our faith and come to realize that it may never really what we intend it to be. Our intention from the start was born from a desire to start a deep and Holy Communion with God, and as the bridge and chorus approaches, the song has a more personal and prayerful tone. We a...

"The Cross" by Mhammed El Alami & HKL: At the Cross, Where Mercy Meets the Weary Heart

Rooted in the story of Jesus giving Himself at Calvary for everyone, "The Cross" by Mhammed El Alami & HKL turns this familiar message into a very personal invitation. Just stop carrying what is crushing you ( "Lay it down, let it go" ), surrender it to Christ, and let Him hold you. These lyrics are not only about the cross at Calvary. It's also about your cross, your fear, your shame, and your need for His peace. "Darkness fell, I was breaking fast," and we may count on the forgiving arms of a merciful Savior who is always there, even when our lives feel cold and heavy. "At the cross // You gave it all, you felt the cold // and love took hold // and made me whole." It's at the cross where "mercy bled and grace was born" for you, personally. It's where His grace clears your way home. What does that mean for us today? It means that we do not need to walk or carry our burdens alone. We may place everything that weighs u...

"He's My Rock" by Jamar Esaw & Triad 4 Christ: Finding Shelter in the Storm

(by Jasper Tan) “He’s My Rock” by Jamar Esaw & Triad4Christ featuring Koriann Lewis-Freeman is a powerful contemporary Gospel track that delivers a blend of traditional worship and modern soul. It reminds me of some of the songs by the band DC Talk, which was the definitive sound of modern Christian Contemporary Music when it exploded in the music scene back in the 90’s. This contemporary Gospel track brings forth an energetic sound that updates the way we sing our praise and worship sessions in our Churches. The song brings in a raw modern energy that breaks tradition while also encouraging worship sessions to be more in tune with the times, which brings a lot of youthful energy. The song is powered by Jamar Esaw’s smooth, commanding vocals and Koriann Lewis-Freeman’s additional vocal range. Bringing in an electric chemistry rooted in the authenticity of emotions as they sang the lyrics of the song. This is clearly felt during the song’s build-up to its climactic moments. With a r...
