RandyB Funk

Christian Rapper

RandyB Funk has a long list of accomplishments, but he is best known for his Christian Hip-Hop music and his massive SOS Service Drives that benefit the Boise Rescue Mission and the Idaho Humane Society. In 2020, along with his busy performance schedule, he created two hip-hop shows, named the Annual FiredUp Benefit Tour. The best Christian rappers in the area are selected for this show and the door revenue goes straight to the Boise Rescue Mission. This year’s 3rd Annual Fired-Up Benefit Show, takes place on April 2, 2021 in Boise and details can be found on RandyB Funk’s socials @ randybfunkmusic.

2020 was quite a year for RandyB. He made it through three rounds of American Idol, before being advised that only singers were allowed. Meanwhile producers at America’s Got Talent raved about his online performance; he is currently awaiting the next round. RandyB was also chosen by nationally known Effect Radio 91.9 FM, to be the “ARTIST OF THE MONTH,” in Sept 2020 and in December he was awarded the “DO GOOD CHAMPION,” by Project 88.7. He was also the December 5th SPOTLIGHT with our own Sandy Jones for Christian Living Magazine’s radio show, Christian Living Spotlight.

RandyB has been featured in multiple publications, as well as on radio and news shows, where he has shared that he loves serving his community through his volunteering and even finds inspiration for his music there.

After an EP and multiple singles, RandyB Funk dropped his first album, titled “DIVIDED,” in 2020. He followed up the album with another single in January 2021, titled “WORK.” RandyB is no stranger to work and never stops giving 100 percent to both his community and his music. He is a high school senior and co-curricular student at Boise Bible College and is already working on his next album. He is also planning to shoot a video in Hawaii in June 2021, (where he was raised until age seven) for his popular song “NEW DAY” with Derick Sebastian, who is hailed as the best Ukulele player in the world!

On March 18, 2021 RandyB is performing with Steven Malcom, 1K Phew, Kurtis Hoppie, Dany Gray and RayG in Boise, and has the Hip Hop Love Fest coming up in July. RandyB shares the following quote, “I want to encourage hope, unity and the love of Jesus in our community and invite people to support these family fun events, and all local artists. It’s been a tough year for many of them. I want to personally invite your readers to these upcoming shows.” When asked if he prefers to be called a ‘rapper’ or a ‘Christian rapper,’ he answers, “I don’t care if you call me, a rapper or a Christian Rapper, Jesus is a huge part of my life and that’s always going to show through in my music.”
