From Mud to Majesty: Nu Tone’s Mudville Diamonds Shines Through Christ

We all enter this world dirty, stained by the mess of sin, but Jesus is eager to cleanse us. No one is righteous, yet He offers us redemption and a path to live holy lives. Through Christ, we can leave the dirt of our past behind and chase after His glory, no matter how far we’ve sunk. Even if we’re caught in the mud, His love can transform us, making us shine like diamonds.

This truth is boldly declared in Nu Tone’s new album Mudville Diamonds. Like a diamond pulled from the depths of grime, Nu Tone, a Stockton-based emcee, continues to shine bright in the world of Christian hip-hop, and his latest release is an audio testimony of this divine transformation.
