Quincy, IL - “A person should think of us in this way: as servants of Christ and managers of the mysteries of God. In this regard, it is required that managers be found faithful. It is of little importance to me that I should be judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I don’t even judge myself.” [1 Corinthians 4:1-3]

The acclaimed single, “OMCL,” sets the tone for the newest project from CHH veteran MotionPlus, which will hit digital streaming platforms on July 18, 2025.

Improper Decorum is a seven-song EP entirely produced by Nikkuu Beats. Nikkuu and the Illinois-based MotionPlus are both rostered on indie-imprint Polished Arrow Music and have developed a rapport that brings the most out of both artists. The proof is in each record of this new collaborative effort.

In addition to the partnership between MotionPlus and Nikkuu, Improper Decorum also features some of the best lyrical rappers in Christian hip hop today. Guests on the EP include Polished Arrow emcees Procyse, iNTELLECT, Kaboose, and m1L, along with J. Solo and A-F-R-O on the lead single.

Coinciding with the EP’s release is the second single from the project, “Legacy.”

“Legacy” is a record that boasts a nostalgic vibe paired with introspective lyrics that tap into the soul.

There comes a time when we all get a good look in the mirror. It allows us to observe the paths we’ve walked, the one we are on, and what is coming on the horizon. Not only does MotionPlus recall the lessons he has experienced throughout his career, but he is also transparent about his current position as an artist.

With a mission based on love, it is the willingness to be vulnerable that has endeared MotionPlus to fans throughout the years. “Legacy” is a prime example of this unique trait within the world of hip-hop.

Don’t forget to add “Legacy” to your playlist on your favorite music streaming service!
