Update: Let us sincerely pray for Bob Young AKA Precise.

As many of you know here on this board over the last few years I've been wondering what happened to Bob Young AKA Precise (half of the Corey Red duo). I've been waiting for many years to know where he is and have been seriously concerned. I listen to his solo album all the time and have consistently for a very long time. It's rough, rugged, and raw for Christ. I've asked so many times and brought it up here over and over again and the closest info to what happened was that he was fine and still a believer, but that was quite a few years ago. It's like he just fell off the map. How can such a lyrically talented brother in Christ just fall off and never show their face again?

I knew there had to be a reason he has stepped away from the scene/genre and I believe he alluded to it in his last album to a small to a subtle extent on certain lines from a few of his songs. He addressed a lot of issues on "HIS STORY MY SHOES," however there has never really been a closure as to what might have happened to him.

Well, just recently I stumbled across his twitter and have read through it all. It looks like he still ghostwrites for others, but there are more alarming tweets that maybe some of you who have contact with him can address. https://twitter.com/BobYoung378

Maybe some of you have already reached out? I don't have a twitter, but I'm seriously contemplating making one for the sole purpose of reaching him.

Now, personally I'll still listen to his music, especially his solo album that has deeply encouraged my walk in Christ. This man sure went hard against false religion and false teaching in general and overall I would place his album in my top 5 list. However, at the end of the day his soul is much more important to me than his music so I will be on my knees for him day and night prayerfully asking God to shine in his life.

Please family in Christ, let us pray for this dear brother.

Bob Young says: Everyone's rapping yet nothing really wows me. If hip hop elevates why the younger cant out rap the older?

Maybe just maybe he should get back on the Mic then. Talent that's wasted is so disappointing.

Sounds like he never heard Jurny Big or guys of similar caliber. . . ?

Same caliber as Precise?

No. I was saying it sounds like Bob Young hasn't heard of guys like Jurny or of similar caliber.

Hi mstrom. I'm wondering if you might have possibly have misinterpreted Precise's text? If anything (at least the way I read it), you two are actually in agreement about feeling that most new (younger) cats are not able to out-rap more seasoned (older) emcees like Jurny (if he's heard of him - or other's of his caliber).

TLW, I also loved Precise's sole effort. Thanks for sharing your discovery. It's cool to read that Precise is working as a nurse (that's quite a change from the past he & Corey Red used to rap about). I trust that God is still continuing the good work he's begun in & through Bob Young. Praying.
