Making a rap song, Eminem-style, but sweet and Christian, with chatGPT

ChatGPT is one of several LLMs currently being built. The possibilities seem almost endless. For now, they are certainly good fun to play with. 

Just imagine that in a year or two or three, you can ask your device whether your watch, phone, speaker or laptop: when would be the best time to take some time off? Which part of Europe have I not visited? What is there to see and do? What would that trip by car cost me if I want to rent a good car and sleep over in hotels rated 8.0/10 or better, and, oh, that sounds reasonable, book this trip for me, please.

For now, we have to do more things manually, but that's fine too.

I goofed around with chatGPT and asked it to write a letter for me, as if I am a Jehovah's Witness who wants to tell about my faith. Also, keep it brief.

Hoe zou een brief van een Jehovah's Getuigen er uit zien, welke mij in een kantje tekst probeert te overtuigen van zijn geloof? 

The result was very passable as "real":




Next, I wanted to expand on this letter a little bit, so I asked chatGPT to use 2 or 3 Bible scriptures, instead of the 1.  It could indeed:

Kun je deze brief herschrijven met 2 of 3 Bijbelteksten er in verwerkt in plaats van eentje?



If you start out right away with asking what you want to get done, chatGPT will often be missing the mark. But by introducing your real question by some simpler queries first, you force chatGPT into a certain "mindset." 

Now that we have done so, we come to our true purpose, I want a rap song, Eminem style, but with a very neat Christian message, is this at all possible?

kun je deze laatste tekst omzetten in een engelse rap tekst in de stijl van Eminem ?


The result was far better than I expected:



For fun and kicks, here is the rap song in full:


(Verse 1)

Yo, this letter I write, hope it finds you alright, 

My name is [Name], a Witness of the Light,

We're living in times, so unsure, so confusing,

But I got the Bible, for guidance, I'm choosing.


God is love, it's stated, no debate (1 John 4:8),

A message so strong, no room for hate,

In this world of chaos, where love's in decline,

This reminder of love, so divine, it's a sign.


(Chorus)

We got hope, we got faith, in the words that we read,

In the good book, the Bible, is where we feed,

Jehovah's Witnesses, we stand tall and proud,

Voicing His message, humble but loud.


(Verse 2)

Look to Revelation, twenty-one, three and four,

A promise of a paradise, pain no more,

No death, no crying, the old world's past,

A new Earth's coming, peace at last.


Tryna walk like Jesus, in our daily strides,

No sin in his steps, truth in his guides (1 Peter 2:22),

Striving to reflect his compassion and humility,

In our actions, interactions, not just ability.


(Chorus)

We got hope, we got faith, in the words that we read,

In the good book, the Bible, is where we feed,

Jehovah's Witnesses, we stand tall and proud,

Voicing His message, humble but loud.


(Outro)

I invite you, come learn, see what it means to you,

Bible studies for free, meetings online too,

I respect your beliefs, and I hope you do mine,

Let's have a convo, in His love, let's align.


So thank you for your time, hope to hear back soon,

Under the same sky, beneath the same moon,

Signin' off now, but before I go,

Remember, in His love, we grow.


(End)

This is [Your Name], a Jehovah's Witness,

In a world full of noise, find the quiet bliss,

His word, His love, His promise so vast,

In His name, we move forward, not tied to the past.
