Grammy nominated hip hop artist Da' Truth has collaborated with Christian apologist Ravi Zacharias for his latest single entitled "Religion" to address issues surrounding faith, belief and absolute truth.

The collaboration was earlier teased in a tweet posted by the rapper seemingly raising questions about his own faith, and sounding the alarm from concerned fans who thought that he was drifting.

As it later turned out, the rapper was merely sharing some of the lyrics for his single, which he said reflects some of the real life questions that Christians struggle with.

"Yes, I wanted to reveal my single, but more than that, I wanted to share REAL thoughts and concerns that I have struggled with throughout my life. Is there one true religion? Is it arrogant to be exclusive? Can we be certain that Christianity is the only religion that God acknowledges as true? Many people, Christians included, struggle with these questions, and I want them to know they aren't alone," he told the Christian Post.

The single, which is now available through Truthonduty.com and iTunes, is accompanied by a music video shot in London. It also features a discussion between the rapper and Zacharias.

The song has received mostly positive reviews for its attempt to open the discussion around believing that one's own religion is the best and the reality that religions are "at best, superficially similar but fundamentally different."

For his part, Zacharias lauded his collaborator for using his music to communicate an important message.

"I commend Da' Truth for tackling tough questions and communicating fundamental ideas through hip hop. I am delighted to participate in this album, and I pray it will point many people to the unique and life-transforming message of Jesus Christ," Zacharias said.
