The Cross Movement is a Christian hip hop band from Philadelphia, USA.

Ministry

The Cross movement is considered by many to be trailblazers in the Christian music industry. The band members, however, may not think of themselves as such, but realize that they have a great responsibility to keep Jesus at the forefront of everything they do. In addition to its musical output, the group has formed a ministry called Cross Movement Ministries, which aims to use creative ways to spread the Christian message within hip hop culture.

Career

As of 2005, the Cross Movement has released six albums on its own record label, Cross Movement Records. Among these, Holy Culture (2003) reached #134 on the Billboard 200 album chart and the



top 10 of the contemporary Christian chart. Higher Definition (2004) also reached Billboard's Christian chart.

The group's unusual Christian hip hop blend has seen it featured in TIME Magazine and The Washington Post.
