Hailing from West Olive, Michigan, Crunk for Christ is the premier force behind God-Funk—a high-energy blend of bass-heavy beats and Pentecostal fire. Composed of MC Jay Freak (vocals) and DJ Dank Frank (music, vocals), the duo is renowned for their eccentric devotion and their signature practice of getting "high on the Holy Ghost."
The group formed in 2008 after a bizarre encounter at a local church revival, where both members were simultaneously slain in the spirit, waking up with a shared vision to revolutionize spiritual music. Between 2009 and 2025, they took this wild, ecstatic ministry on the road, shaking the foundations of local churches with unpredictable live sets. In 2026, they broke out of the church circuit and into the festival spotlight with an unforgettable performance at Hoobiepalooza.
Working alongside producer, masterer, and visual designer Scum Puppy, their discography is as provocative as it is faithful. After appearing on Hoobie Records compilations like Clown Porn (Vol.1) and BASF, they released their definitive 2009 debut album, Jehovah-uana, boasting tracks like "Tokin' The Ghost" and "Drink Your Godka." After a mid-summer appearance on the Pornstars for Christ compilation, the duo took a hiatus, returning triumphantly in March 2026 with the Holy Smokes EP, cementing their status as the pioneers of Pentecostal Haze.
