Throughout history, the prophets of God all came through the arts community. Whether writers, such as Isaiah and Jeremiah, or musicians, like David and Solomon, only those with a vision could rightly be called prophets. Bob Dylan is a great example of this in modern times. If one truly wishes to understand what Life is telling us, we MUST look to the arts community. Rap music is prophetic, as is even Country music. They all tell us of the poor, the afflicted, the wounded, the sick, death and beyond. This is the call of all artists, but few today acknowledge this burden. They cry out at the inequities of modern living. It's a disgrace to call them the pejorative "liberals", a term so often referenced by the one-potato, two-potato, three potato, four of the ruling class. We're in a bit of a mess today, so let's hear from the artists living today!
