Philly seems to be the place for many upcoming christian artists. I'm from South Africa but since I've been in Philly studying, I've been following an mc called Oppose. (I found out he's actually been to my country SA) I have 2 of his albums and his web site has a mixtape he released some time ago. Now I hear his music will be associated with Shawn J. Period who will co-executive produce. So I'm thinking the style would be the same. So if you like SJP, maybe you'll like him.
Here's a link to his website: http://opposemusic.com
And I found him on itunes here: http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=280213407&s=143441

From SA via Philly,
