1k Phew, who plays Crowbar in Ybor City, Florida on March 7, 2024.

Isaac Gordon, more commonly known as his rap moniker 1K Phew, is a living example that not all Christian music is acoustic guitars and boot cut jeans.

The Atlanta-based “Gospel rapper” and hip hop artist is currently on the aptly-named Prayer Tour promoting his latest album Pray for Atlanta, a nine-song collection of collaborative tracks with producer and fellow Atlantian Zaytoven.

While fans at 1k Phew’s upcoming show will surely hear tracks off his new LP like “Heaven” and “Let Go Get God,” popular singles like 2019’s “Drip Lee,” which has garnered over six million listens on streaming services.

And if you’re wondering, his name stems from his lifelong mission of “keeping it 1,000.”

Tickets to see 1K Phew play Crowbar in Ybor City on Thursday, March 7 are still available and start at $20.
