No More Sundays? (Tru Knowledge breaks down the title for his newest mixtape). @tktruknowledge

What does No More Sundays mean? I’ve been asked this question plenty of times in the past few weeks.. Is it a knock against contemporary church, is it a shot at “sunday Christians” , what the heck does it mean?!? I guess in actuality its both and more.. I came up with the title while reflecting on my own life.. I was wondering how personal is my own relationship with Christ? Yes I make music that’s glorifying to him.. yes I read my word and pray.. But how much do I KNOW him? And how much does He have of me? Those questions really sparked a search within myself.. And that’s the same debate I wanted this mixtape to do for whoever listens. I could get real deep and theological but that wasn’t the point of the music that I dropped. I wanted to be open and honest about where I’m at, and show where I’m going. Am I praying because I know I should pray because I’m a Christian? Or am I praying out of a deeper desire to talk and be intimately with Jesus? Big difference.. Am I reading the word to get that “daily qouta” of bible in, or am reading it to hear from God? ( I need u more in my life/ lord of my life / so lord hit the cord for the lights - The Growth) I just recently started attending Sunday service again after years of not..( I’m very agile , so don’t even try to throw stones! Lol) I admit I was scorned from the church of my youth. I was heart broken when I saw my church shut down due to lack of money. I looked at my church family as my actual family, and till this day I haven’t seen many members .. I mean this was the place where I got saved! I actually spit my first verse for Christ to Phanatik right on the front steps. This was the place my mom rededicated her life to the LORD at just weeks before she past away.. this was the place I first ministered through music and preached/taught at. So it had a sincere place in my heart. I thought of all this while recording No More Sundays. Obviously I didn’t but the references in there blatantly but they’re there.. I realised I stopped giving God that corporation worship on sundays. I just recently started attending Service again as I said.. And I saw how much I missed it, took it for granted even. That’s one meaning to No More Sundays. On the flip, I saw how so many people wait till Sunday to even think about there lives let alone God. People who I never hear give Jesus even a thought will go to service just to go. And think that’s it. Not even paying attention to the sermon or joining in on the worship. It got me thinking that it has to be more than “sunday”. Ive seen the same church folk give God all the praise on Sunday but then Monday through sat do there own thing. And I’m guilty of that point. Our relationship has to be personal. Not based only on what a pastor says for one hour out of week (I need u more than a sermon I’m listening to/ or a service I might he sitting through - The Growth ). If anything Sunday service should be the capping off to your spiritual journey throughout the week, not your starting point. This title made me look inward so much. Into those secret places that we try to hide from God. I write every song from a personal standpoint but songs off of No More Sundays like “The Journey” or “Jazmine Cashmere”, are super personal to me. I know my struggles with drug addiction, and lust. They’ve been thorns in my side, as Paul said. Things God didn’t remove, but had to teach me discipline over them. And thanks be to God that I’m over them. But I’d be lying if I said I my flesh doesn’t want to pull me back in (drug addict , yeah I quit but I still got the habit/ I pray everyday I won’t be relapsing - off The Journey). And that’s what No More Sundays also means. Giving God those “secret places” of your lives. Those parts we try to keep to ourselves, ultimately stunting our spiritual growth. Like we can hide anything from God anyway smh lol. I wrote and sequences this album the way it is to showcase my life throughout a week.. I put the track “Young Lion” as one of the first because I wanted to show that energy and boastfulness for Jesus that someone may have when there on fire for Christ. But by the time your getting to the end, you get the meat. You get the flip side of that energy and boasting. You get my shortcomings. You get my dirt. You get “The Journey” and “Jazmine Cashmere”. Which are basically confessions. Just me pouring my heart out to God. This would Prolli be my wed through Saturday. Those days when u get weary. A lil fed up even. But then u get “Tears of Joy”.. Me worshipping The Lord.. Thanking Him for his Grace and Mercy. Thanking him for this free gift of salvation that my faith could only get me. You get my “sunday”.. -Tru
