One of the emerging hip-hop artists Eternal 316, now a hip-hop rap artist as well, has come up with his latest album ‘Satans Doom’. The album tells a story through ten songs in it. The album is a result of the artist’s frustration and anger on the music and media industry. Let’s check in detail, what exactly the artist has to say.
DMR: Hey Eternal 316, congratulations on your latest release, ‘Satans doom’. Hope it will be a massive success. Listening to the album, it’s truly felt to be a difficult process to compose and execute such things, so, how are you feeling now that it’s finally released?
Eternal 316: I’m Definitely Feeling Great that I was able to Drop the Album and Hopeful that it will Plant seeds For Gods Kingdom for sure
DMR: The message behind the song is clear. Your anger and frustration are vivid throughout the album. So, tell your audience what actually have you faced?
Eternal 316: Well Anger isn’t what I’m trying to push I’ve just Noticed the world has become a lot more Darker as of late Music artists are showing God and the Gospel no Respect whatsoever in the mainstream music industry Topple that with the rest of us are facing every day, Finacial Struggles, Covid, Lockdowns, Crime rates rising, etc People have enough problems in our everyday lives we don’t need an artist and this world tryna lead us down Satanic paths ya feel me? We Need the Savior more than ever right now
As for me personally, I’ve been facing some struggles in my personal life but I’m still very Thankful Jesus gives me Life and that’s what matters is the fact I’m even Living life
DMR: God is mentioned in your song predominantly. Do you believe in god? And what made you believe in him?
Eternal 316: Well yeah Of course I believe in God he’s always been there to help me in every circumstance, back in Highschool I wasn’t even sure if there was a God I was almost borderline Atheist honestly but after high school as the years went by slowly God started Showing me Not only is He real but he literally Died for me and even though the world is gonna get Darker I’ve got nothing to fear because he is with me through it all
DMR: How much importance does God play in your life?
Eternal 316: Top Priority Importance like Number one on the list but I don’t wanna come off all Holier than thou or fake in any way I still struggle and fight my own sinful nature almost on daily basis and it’s only because of my faith in God I haven’t Givin up yet without him nothing is possible and through him All things are possible
DMR: You are quite sarcastic and metaphoric in the album. Your choice of rhetoric is no less than that of a classical poet with the touches of modernity. Who is your inspiration as a rapper?
Eternal 316: Believe it or Not I have two Favorite Rappers that have influenced me for the first half of my life it was Tupac the way he was able to make me relate to his heartfelt pain in life and how to rise above that, He definitely taught me a lot of lessons in life through his whole Legacy, You know when he was in prison he once said in an interview ” Don’t Support the fakes support the real, how can all these people claim they so real but they don’t care about our communities? They so hood blah blah blah but they don’t care about the community” that hit so Hard growing up in Los Angeles seeing the Streets on the west coast and listening to a lot of their artist insane exactly what Pac meant but as great as Pac was he still was human and he made a lot of mistakes in life witch ultimately Cost him his life which leads me to the Second artist who influenced me in the second half of my Life
Bizzle, from God over Money dude is definitely my favorite Rapper and in Gods Kingdom, he will Probably go down as the Greatest Rapper of all time almost every single Song of his I can relate and he speaks nothing but Facts in almost all his songs infact in his recent album he dropped a new song called New skies and in the first verse he talks about Tupac and he outlines how I feel about Pac to too, and in the Third Verse he raps about how Jesus has Got to be his new Sky to reach because Christ is the only one we should be aiming to be like
These Two artists are the biggest Rappers in my life and influence for sure
DMR: So, how do you get the idea of composing this album in such a format?
Eternal 316: Honestly seeing the world going the direction it’s going has got me thinking the Endtimes are almost here probably around the corner too so I was Reading Revelation tryna study it and Satans Doom is actually a Chapter in Revelation witch Prophesied his Demise, I’m also a big fan of the Doom Video Game series it’s a Game where the Gates of Hell literally Springs Open and the Dlayer has to slay them all and Close the gates before Mars or Earth is destroyed and Doom Eternal was released around the same time and that gave me Inspiration because from my point of view that’s exactly what’s happening in a spiritual sense the Enemy has been on a mission to Spiral this world out of control and bring chaos and Darkness all around us …and I
Just felt God Calling me to use all this influence to make this New Album and Take a Stand and try to spread the Gospel as well
DMR: Out of the 10 songs which one is your most favourite and most significant do you feel?
Eternal 316: I had the Most Fun making Darkness with Crusade MC, I was always a fan of him so having the privilege to work with him and expose darkness together was an amazing opportunity
But Endgame has got to be the most significant because I feel like that is the most Poetic Song I’ve ever made because I took Revelation and the Chapter Satans Doom and literally put that that In lyrical Format and I’m just in so much Shock God was able to use me as a Vessel to do that and Only God can take someone like me and Allow me to do something great for his glory
DMR: What do you feel about today’s music and what do you feel where is it going?
Eternal 316: It depends what industry we talking about if we Talking about mainstream I think I’ve already made it clear they leading fans down a Dark Satanic path and influence Fans to Not Love people not to mention you have a lot of Rappers who aren’t even Lyrical anymore they just try to hook you with a Catchy song hoping it sells they just look at people as Dollar signs
But if we talking about CHH I think that’s where Real Rap has transported over too because at least Christian Rappers Keep it real with you and tell you the Truth and try to Influence you to live Loving Godly lives, At least their main Concern is Spreading the Gospel, So I think between the two Industries Christian Hip Hop is where I wanna be in …I love this industry and I hope it just keeps growing and Keeps fighting the Good fight
DMR: Your album is like a series. It’s going in a chronology. So, is there anyone who helped you in this process?
Eternal 316: Yeah .. Jesus aka Yeshua, but other than Him as far as the Production of the Album No, I actually put the Album together myself witch is part of the reason I feel so accomplished putting the work in and seeing the finished project
DMR: After this album, many youngsters are going to be inspired by you. What do you want to tell them?
Eternal 316: The Most Important thing I wanna tell them is this …Never Give up On Christ because He never gives up on you, this world will try to pull yall in all kinds of directions but you have to be able to see the Devil in disguise
The Devil is like a Roaring Lion Seeking who he can devour …don’t let him or any kind of his influence Devour you …Put your faith and trust In Christ, Fight the Good fight, and I’ll see yall in Gods Kingdom
DMR: What are your future plans with your projects and life?
Eternal 316: Well honestly all my Projects come from God, I don’t want this to be my last album for sure I would love to make new songs and albums in the future but its ultimately up to Him, When he gives me the inspiration, the Lyrics, and the Greenlight is when I’ll make future projects until then I’m just going to continue working on myself and do everything I can to give him Glory in my life
DMR: Any message you want to deliver to your fans and subscribers?
Eternal 316: It’s Christ Light 4 Life !!!!
