I was just wondering what were some of your thoughts on when secular artists, who profess to be Christian, thank God for their record sales/awards when their music promotes ungodly things?

If they profess to be Christian then should we call them "secular artists"?

I see your point Nikki, but I don't think it's our place to judge their hearts, even if the content of their "art" is highly objectionable. I've heard Beyonce thank God before, but she is notorious for her videos in which she dances in very little clothing. Even if her videos are inappropriate, it doesn't mean she doesn't have a faith or isn't sincerely thankful to the true God. That applies for many of the other rappers and R&B people as well, even if we are offended or object to the content of their work.
The question, however, wasn't should we "judge their hearts." Rather, it was what should we think about their action in giving thanks to God for their sales, etc. That being noted, true believers or not, it is blasphemous to thank God for the selling of content that is contra God and His Word. Furthermore, these professors ought to be held accountable when they give such foolish expressions of gratefulness for the sale of such filth.

contra God? Contra Scripture. Among others, promotion of fornication, adultery, unbiblical divorce, promiscuity, rebellion against God-ordained authority, drunkenness, orgies, degrading of women, so on, so forth.
