Lecrae Biography
An unlikely story stands behind the man known by many as
Lecrae . From the southside of Houston to a leader in the movement of urban
reform, a rocky road provides a window into the grace he experienced through out
his life, with every situation molding him into the artist and leader that he is
today.
Born and raised by his mother in a struggling community on the
south side of Houston, Lecrae moved around to several places giving him the
versatile background and cultural awareness he carries with him. San Diego,
Denver, and Dallas have also once been home to him and the street life he once
idolized and pursued. Along the way, like many in the inner city, he took to
rapping as a way of communicating his mind. It wasn't until after high school
that his hobby became a passion after his hip hop background was redeemed by
Jesus Christ.
At 19 years old at the encouragement of a Christian leader
he attended a conference and heard James White delivering the message. In that
moment, sitting in a chair, his world was flipped upside down as the Holy Spirit
convicted him of his sin and need for a Savior. That day Lecrae was rescued by
the Lord and began following after Christ. Almost instantly his renewed heart
spilled over as he printed his testimony and passed it out enthusiastically all
over his college campus at University of North Texas. The next 5 years included
many struggles and victories before he teamed up to begin Reach Records,
releasing his first album at the age of 25.
Calling Dallas home, Lecrae
remained content using his gifts of speaking and rapping while volunteering at a
juvenile detention center, but the Lord would have different plans and soon he
began working on his debut Real Talk. Pouring out a genuine discussion of life
issues and passionate, unashamed pursuit of Jesus Christ, Real Talk was released
to the world where he quickly became noted as an emcee that would meet listeners
where they were by delivering transparent, relatable, and impacting messages.
As Lecrae continued to make his mark in the music industry, he realized
the stage wasn't enough. He wanted to see deeper impact in urban culture. There
needed to be a culturally relevant and biblically solid resource center to help
train the next generation. Co-founding ReachLife Ministries in 2005, the
non-profit organization exists to partner with organizations to equip local
leaders with culturally relevant tools and media projects designed to strengthen
communities with the word of God. ReachLife is another vital piece in the larger
vision of seeing a reformation in urban culture.
Since formation, Lecrae
has released the groundbreaking album After the Music Stops and the first
Christian Rap CD to ever sit in the No. 1 position on Billboard's Top Gospel
Charts, Rebel. Led by the classic single‚ “Jesus Musik,” After the Music Stops
slowly spread to the mainstream market with other hits such as, “Praying For
You‚” and‚ “Send Me.” Aimed to build an audience of disciples, the album sat on
Soundscan‚ Christian Hip Hop/R&B chart for two years after releasing in
2006. While in the No. 3 position, Rebel released in 2008 and claimed the No. 3
position on the secular iTunes‚ Rap chart.
A graduate of University of
North Texas, Lecrae now resides in the inner city of Memphis, one of the nations
most violent cities. A movement is brewing around the country with hungry,
unashamed believers popping up in inner city communities everywhere. Lecrae is
humbled to be a part of leading others towards Christ so that live can be
changed forever just like his changed years ago. With new avenues and strategic
partnerships Lecrae prays that the impact from Reach will spread far beyond
simply the music and into the lives of believers across the world.
