What is phatmass?

The “phat” in phatmass stands for “Preaching Holy Apostolic Truth”. Founded in 2000, we are a website (duh), an online community and a Catholic hip-hop production entity. We defend and promote the Catholic faith via innovative multimedia. We strive to portray orthodoxy, charity and humility.

Some of the things phatmass does:

• Produces Catholic hip-hop music as a creative method of communication to the youth and urban culture. *Phatmass is strongly opposed to advocating the use of hip-hop in the liturgy, as we do not feel it properly creates an atmosphere of reverence condusive to prayer
• Performs at live shows and events across the country with the cooperation of a network of different artists
• Advocates praying the rosary and provides a meditative prayer aide over the internet with the creation of the website, 59Beads.com
• Designs, manufacturs and sells clothing and merchandise with strong Catholic messages, promoting a "culture" of orthodoxy

The Phatmass Mission

Our mission is to live and defend the faith given to us by Jesus Christ by remaining totally and completely obedient to the teaching authority of His Church. We encourage dialogue between people of all faiths and recognize that we are all striving for holiness.

We feel that it is of primary importance to promote and adore His Real Presence in the Holy Eucharist, develop a habit of prayer, and work for a renewal of reverence in the Sacred Mass, which will help us all in our journey to grow closer to Jesus Christ, who is the Way, the Truth and the Life.

We recognize that we are in a constant battle of good vs evil, and ask for the intercession of our Blessed Mother Mary and all the Saints in Heaven for a removal of pride and an increase in humility, with our ultimate goal being sainthood.
