May the church say “Amen!” 

Ladies and gentlemen, today is National Day Of Prayer. While we don’t totally know why May 2nd is deemed National Day Of Prayer, we do know that rappers get religious when the time calls for it. 

Despite not living the most righteous or sanctified life, rappers do pray, and they pray a lot. 

They pray for hard, they pray for women, they pray for money, and they pray for their enemies. Basically, rappers pray about all the things everyone else prays about. 

In honor of the National Day Of Prayer, GlobalGrind rounded up 15 pictures of rappers praying. 

Hallelujah hollaback.
