UK Gospel Rap: “Pythagoras the Praying Mantis” the most productive Gospel Rapper in Birmingham

Join Roger Moore as he sits down with Pythagoras the Praying Mantis, an artist who has been a key figure in the Urban Music scene in Birmingham. Despite growing up just a few miles apart, Roger and Pythagoras never crossed paths in the local Gospel music scene—even though both were active since the 1990s.

In this in-depth conversation, Pythagoras the Praying Mantis reflects on his journey, his 11-album discography, and the impact of discipleship—or the lack of it—on the music scene in Birmingham. They explore the challenges, the growth, and the moments that shaped his career.

This interview is part of a series where Roger Moore speaks with key figures from pre-2005—before the legendary Bibles Bible video changed the landscape. Stay tuned for more insightful discussions on the history and evolution of the scene!
