Father Egberto Noh In-bin, 40, is the first Korean Catholic priest to release a hip-hop album.
He has been working on "Stromateis" for three years and there are 13 tracks, including seven rap songs, written and sung by Noh. "The Stromateis," the third in Clement of Alexandria's trilogy of works on Christian life, inspired the title.
Noh was a rapper in his school hip-hop band and held hip-hop concerts, but this is his first album.
Noh, a priest at Cheongbuk Catholic Church in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province, said the album expresses human emotions such as love, hope, courage, sorrow and anger to give listeners hopeful messages.
