Departing from some of the themes of violence and materialism that dominate pop music, the rap group Native Deen focuses on the spiritual teachings of Islam. Native Deen's influence casts a wide net, inspiring audiences in the US, Europe, the Middle East, and beyond. In this episode, one of Native Deen's co-founders, Joshua Salaam, shares his love for old school rap and R&B, how Muslim youth camps gave him his first taste of being an MC, and how his songwriting is influenced by what he learns from working with youth and young adults.

Joshua Salaam is the Muslim Chaplain at Duke University and a member of iconic musical group Native Deen. He has a Doctorate of Ministry from Hartford Seminary and has mentored youth throughout his career. He talked to us about becoming Native Deen almost by accident—or perhaps destiny—his years in the army, and how his professional life took shape post-9/11. We tackled the hard questions, like our relationship with the military as American Muslims, and how to deal with anti-Black racism in our communities. In Brother Joshua's words, we jumped right into the ocean!
