Clipse mirrored on their groundbreaking Vatican efficiency, calling it a robust second that showcased how far Hip-Hop has come.

Clipse mirrored on making Hip-Hop historical past after turning into the primary rap act to carry out on the Vatican through the “Grace for the World” live performance in St. Peter’s Square on September 13.

Performing in entrance of greater than 253,000 attendees, Pusha T and Malice took the stage with a reside gospel choir and carried out “The Birds Don’t Sing,” that includes John Legend, a reflective monitor from their newest album Let God Sort Em Out.

The track pays tribute to their late mother and father and marked a deeply private second for the duo in some of the sacred venues on Earth.

“It was definitely a moment for us,” Malice informed VIBE. “I think we definitely broke ground. It’s overdue and past time that people understand that Hip-Hop belongs everywhere. It’s expression, it’s communication, it teaches the world about our culture.”

He continued, “It’s an art form that’s celebrated in every walk of life. It’s nothing that should be surprising — we should be celebrated everywhere.”

Pharrell Williams, a longtime Clipse collaborator and pal, produced the Vatican occasion.

Pusha T mirrored on how far the style has come since its early days, when it was usually dismissed by mainstream establishments.

“I’ve been here for a long time with Hip-Hop, and I remember it not being seen as an art, and it not being televised,” he stated. “And like you said, now being at the Vatican — we do this so everyone can see how far it can go.”

Released in July, Let God Sort Em Out marked Clipse’s first album in 14 years and debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 chart.

The Vatican live performance, held on September 13, is now out there to stream on Disney+.
