The Chase (Manafest album)

The Chase is the fifth studio album by the Christian rapper Manafest. It was released on March 30, 2010, under BEC Recordings, in association with Uprok Records.

Critical reception
The album was met with generally positive and praiseworthy reviews with many calling it Manafest's best album yet. Wayne Myatt of Jesus Freak Hideout positively highlighted the album and stated that "The Chase is an enjoyable album with so much variety that it never seems to become tedious. Releases like this one don't come around too often, so if you crave rock and rap, it doesn't get better than this." Finally, Tyler Hess of Christian Music Zine frankly stated "The Chase is Manafest’s fourth label release and it appears that he has learned to mix up his hip hop with some rock, some boy band ballads and most importantly enough diversity to keep an entire album interesting enough throughout, with a pace fast enough that The Chase feels like its over before it's really begun. Maybe it isn't really fitting with the trends, going back in time instead of pushing forward, but if you can let that go then you can probably still enjoy the latest from Manafest." The following year, the song "Avalanche" off the release won "Rap/Hip Hop Song of the Year". == Singles ==
