TENNESSEE -- Dr. Kenneth T. Whalum, Jr. is pastor of New Olivet Baptist Church in Memphis, Tennessee. In addition to his pastoral duties, he is a member of Memphis City Schools’ Board of Commissioners, the Stellar Awards Gospel Music Academy, and the Recording Academy. Blending a lifetime of wide-ranging experiences, in 2010, he released his critically-acclaimed book, "Hip-Hop Is Not Our Enemy" an insider’s critique of the Black church’s role and responsibility in co-opting Hip-Hop culture. In support of the book, Dr. Kenneth T. Whalum, Jr., spoke with AllHipHop.com about “Hip-Hop theology,” mainstream condemnation of Hip-Hop culture, and methods in which the church can connect with members of the Hip-Hop generation. [link]
