yes, the content of the lyrics is what separates this from the worldly music of the same genre.

there is, also, scriptural support for making music that is of high quality, not just that the lyrics present and/or agree with the gospel:

Sing unto him a new song;
play skilfully with a loud noise.

(Psalm 33:3)

for me personally, i never liked this style of music at all until some Christians i met online made me listen to some. i always said, i would like rap if there were no lyrics -- now the lyrics are the part that i really like best, that moves me, but i also appreciate the artistry of the 'beat' too.

Why do you guys think the Lord encourages skillful playing? I'm in love with the music of many outsider artists who probably would be considered shoddy musicians. I know for a fact that a worship song from the heart to the Lord is as pleasant as any other.

there's that passage in Psalms, and the way Paul instructed worship to be orderly.

on the other hand there's also "make a joyful noise" and that the widow who gave only a few mites, all she had, gave an acceptable and commendable gift, and right judgement isn't judgement by appearance. not saying that 'unskillful' offerings are no good; just that a musician bettering his own skill is justified and not necessarily self-centered to do so. :)
