Al Día

"Al día" means up to date, and Redimi2 uses it as a boast with a twist: the flow, the style and the delivery are all current, but the message is what he is really carrying. He announces up front that he has not come to talk about money or street life, and that critics can say Christians "even" do dembow, "in the name of who, you know who."

The rap-heavy verses stay in street slang while changing the subject. He rejects hookah, rum and pills, says his generation will be seen "triumphant" before God's eternal throne, and describes handing his life to the one who died to give salvation. A listener with a full bank account and an empty life is invited to give up the mask and hand over the soul.

The last stretch states the mission outright: he came to preach the word, cap and all. Jewelry gets a spiritual reading too, since "not all that glitters is gold" and what makes a Christian shine is Christ. The ideas track Mark's call to proclaim the gospel and Matthew's picture of a light that shows good works.
