A Saved Man (in The Jungle)
Before Christian hip-hop found its mainstream voice, there was A Saved Man (In The Jungle)a raw, fearless, and
unapologetically bold statement that shattered expectations and kicked open the doors for a new wave of faith-fueled
rap. Originally released in 1990 on BAI/Broken Records, this long out-of-print classic remains a pivotal moment in
hip-hop history, merging street-level authenticity with an uncompromising message of redemption.
SFC (Soldiers for Christ) wasn't just another rap actthey were pioneers. At a time when hip-hop barely had a foothold in
the Christian music world, SFC stood alongside the likes of ETW and pre-Free at Last dc Talk, proving that rap had a
place in faith-based music. Led by Chris Cooperbetter known as Super C, later Soup the Chemist, and eventually Sup the
ChemistSFC brought a level of credibility unmatched by their contemporaries. With razor-sharp lyricism and beats that
stood shoulder-to-shoulder with the best of the era, A Saved Man (In The Jungle) blended hardcore hip-hop with jazz and
reggae influences, drawing inspiration from Public Enemy, N.W.A., and Ice Cube.
This groundbreaking album features guest MCs Dynamic Twins, M.C. Peace, and Poetic Lee, adding even more firepower to an
already explosive record. The production, mixed and engineered by Gene Eugene (Adam Again/Lost Dogs), weaves in elements
of funk, gospel, and comedy, with samples ranging from Saturday Night Live's Church Lady to Adam Again's signature
grooves. The track "Can't Wait" even nods to classic rock, incorporating Creedence Clearwater Revival's Down on the
Corner into its infectious hook.
Now, for the first time in decades, A Saved Man (In The Jungle) returns in a Legends Remastered CD edition, meticulously
remastered by Rob Colwell. This 2025 Retroactive Records release is limited to just 300 copies and comes housed in a
jewel case with a 12-page booklet featuring lyrics. With its iconic cover stylized to read both SAVED and SLAVED, this
album continues to challenge, inspire, and move listeners.
