Tha Last Street Preacha

The Last Street Preacha is the fourth album by Christian hip hop artist T-Bone. It was released on February 27, 2001 via Bone Yard/Flicker Records. Production was handled entirely by Etienne "Chase" Clark. It features guest appearances from Dawkins & Dawkins and E. Doggie Montana. The album peaked at No 33 on the Billboard Heatseekers Albums chart and No 24 on the Top Contemporary Christian Albums chart in the United States. Unlike his previous 90s albums, this album sees T-Bone moving into a more West Coast sound with visible g-funk elements.

At the 44th Annual Grammy Awards, the album was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Rock Gospel Album, but lost to DC Talk's Solo.

Critical response
AllMusic's Adam Greenberg wrote: "Aside from a couple of forays into the territory of Bone (the Thugs-N-Harmony version) with four-part harmonies, and another thuggish run, the majority of the tracks feature a style that's primarily a poor man's Snoop Dogg. That's not to say T-Bone is bad in any way, though, just not Snoop himself -- the talent and ability are huge here, and the styles range widely from proper West Coast G-funk to high-speed Spanish rap in the reggaeton mold. It's rare to find an artist hidden away in Christian music with this sort of crossover talent, but T-Bone is likely to remain under-recognized by many listeners".
