Quincy, IL; Portland, OR -- "Now in a large house there are not only gold and silver vessels, but also those of wood and clay; some for honorable use and some for dishonorable. So if anyone purifies himself from anything dishonorable, he will be a special instrument, set apart, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work." [2 Timothy 2:20-21]

God Can Piece You Together

Following the release of their lead single, "Overdue," Christian rap veteran artists MotionPlus (IL) and Braille (OR) are delivering one more single before the drop of their collaborative EP.

Broken Vessels hits digital streaming platforms on August 7, 2026.

With a mellow vibe and raw honesty, Broken Vessels speaks to one of the most common experiences of the human condition: the feeling of inadequacy and doubting the future.

"Even at your most broken, God can bring you peace." - MotionPlus

Broken Vessels harkens to hip hop's elite lyricists, as the record is reminiscent of the golden era's backpack movement, easily slotting in beside classics from Nas, Common, and Mos Def.

If you are a fan of tracks that push beyond surface-level concepts and hit at the heart of life's journey, be sure to add Broken Vessels to your playlist on your favorite music streaming service.

MotionPlus and Braille's 'Still Dreamin'' EP is coming August 21, 2026!
