Nigerian rapper Lynxxx shared a photo on Instagram that has had everyone talking. In his post Lynxxx preached against the dangers of premarital sex.
Some of the things he wrote are “Please be very careful about who you are intimate with and who u share your body with. We tend to see only the physical side of sex and ignore the existence of the Spiritual (which is the MOST important).
In this generation, sex is as common as a handshake, no sentiments to it, no love attached to it, its now a commodity for trade (cash and benefits alike) people sell their dignity for cash, cars, houses, bags, shoes and Luxurious Holidays like its nothing and come on the gram stunting.”
This post has shocked a few who see Lynxxx as the playboy rapper. However those who have been following the rapper have known for a while that Lynxxx has been acting on a different tip within the last few months.
Lynxxx has been dishing out relationship tips a lot these days. He has also been talking a lot about God. No one knows exactly when Lynxxx became born again but his Instagram posts started having a spiritual undertone to them late last year.
In a December post on the photo sharing app Lynxxx proclaimed he was a child of God. On New Year’s Day Lynxxx wrote “Instead of making Worldly Resolutions as i have always done, iv decided to swap that for Living a life of Purpose and Service to God and everyone around me. The world is way too upside down to be living a life for "Self".
I hope we all make an effort to get closer to God and seek our true life purpose which then makes the future purposeful instead of the endless search for wealth, immorality and the likes which all result in problems and are simply Fleeting.
"I call this year the year of Revelation and Manifestation because things shall come to the light and seeds sown shall bear fruits in our lives. If you believe it, u can achieve it.
"May this year be a year of Purpose, blessings, great health, financial blessings, Godliness, joy, Love and peace in all your lives Amen! "Prayer is Key, Put God 1st at all times..
Don't just run to him when the going gets tough, talk to him when things are good too” Wrote the Syndik8 rapper.
This indeed is 180 degrees change from Lynxxx who was regarded as a Casanova in the music business and a lover of pleasure. He belonged to a crew that loved to party and have fun with hot ladies.
Now Lynxxx is all for Christ and living right. It is not only Lynxxx that has turned a new leaf. His fellow label mates Syndik8 Blink and Nedu have also started living very 'Christianly' based off their Instagram posts.
What made Lynxxx, a rapper who once made the claim that a woman has never turned him down to catch the faith? Maybe Lynxxx’s conversion is because he got tired of the fast life. Maybe he could no longer keep up with a certain lifestyle and wanted something more meaningful in his life.
Lynxxx is not keeping his new found faith a secret. He regularly posts faith inspired photos on his Instagram. While he is now a regular visitor at church, his music hasn't reflected his faith. Maybe he is waiting for the perfect time to drop that hot Christian single.
It is refreshing to see a popular celeb be proud about his faith and relationship with God.
