I appreciate how honest he is while still avoiding explicitly saying certain things (Whether or not he's still active in that fraternity, whether or not he says the n-word, etc). He's one of my favorites and seems like a really cool, authentic and funny dude.
This is actually sad that he did not clarify why he may or may not say something. Afraid to offend people. :(
No I don't think so. That's not it at all. There's a time and a place for everything.
theres a time and a place. That is correct. BUT, Christians have to draw the line between a setting and acting out of fear..
Favorite rapper right here. I'm amazed at how wise and put together this brother is. One day we gon' work together Lecrae. All Glory To God! #116
Says the illuminate.
Nathan Overton I'm not mad at cha for thinking I am or I associate with the Illuminati. Common mistake. But nah brotha, my name is Illuminate. Which means to bring forth light. The Illuminati is something totally different. Check out my music if you ever get the chance. Thanks, and God Bless.
IlluminateTheOfficial1 Best and calmest answer I've seen on RUclips. I appreciate just seeing that response.
IlluminateTheOfficial1 Loved your response! Obvious youve got God in you. If you didnt, thay respinse could have ended up totally different!
I've been with lecrae since 2009 when his raps and beats weren't the best quality but still I listened to em. His journey has been an inspiration to me I was 19 at the time I'm now 24 and still following this man. What a great man what a great example of a real man. Thank you Lecrae.
did you get that church clothes 2 mixtape though? dude went in! fire!
Hear you . keep that fire in you no matter what brother ! alway hace faith in others too. no matter how ugly it is out there
"If you live for people's acceptance, you'll die from their rejection". Real.
Amen
S/O to Sway for seeing rappers for what they spit, appreciate that
These dudes are hilarious! Hahaha! "He Says N***a" hahaha.
Lecrae is easily one of the Best rappers RIGHT NOW, even rappers like kendrick lamar, B.O.B, and others.
Don't go over board lol he's lyrcdally the best but flow and all that, he's decent
He did a song with B.O.B check it out
Dc Hoss yes he did !!!
Cliff Hanger idk man he has one a Grammy But chanGed lives, and live his life positive and wants to save people and only raps Bout positive stuff, he isn't sayin oh i Get money, and rapping Bout druGs, and Getting hiGh. sorry if you roll that way. you Got jesus? what rap you listen too. and over Board what you mean?!?!?!
B.o.b is hot garbage don't bring him into this equation.

Talented guy with uplifting positive music! Great artist.
It's good that there are way enough people talking good stuff, good comments about Lecrae and SwayInTheMorning, thank you guys for good thoughts and comments, really enjoyed! Audience is good, and go go Lecrae, there's a lotta Glory on everything you do!
I love his comments at around 11:45 minutes into this video. I agree. Walk your own walk and stop trying to fit people into molds.
Jesus is the standard for Christ followers he molds us, he gets the glory and he is what we aspire to be like. Philippians 4:9
i was told by someone to watch this, and i am glad i did
He can really rap tho
How can you not be impressed with Lecrae
I Love Love what he said because people saying this and that about him BIG AMEN
love this guy. so many people trying to be "real" but he honestly is
He has such a beautiful spirit!
Lecrae and Nas or Lecrae and J Cole..I need that Collaboration A.S.A.P.
This is real hip hop one of the best all day 116
i like this interview cos it made me understand my mentor well
just became a fan
Lecrae is a real dude..lol. I'm enjoying seeing him be interviewed.
Very well spoken
Like a true Christian.
I love the "no advertise" statement
Artist like Lecrae are going to open up the gates to allow music with a meaning to come through and take over the industry. You guys should go check out " Will Inspire - Youngins On The Block " video as well. The positivity movement of music is circulating and we should all support it!!
keep up the good work,you are truely blessed.
Everyone in America is blessed, they just all haven't realized it.
Good interview. He handled it well even when it got awkward.
Great interview.
Dude. Lecraes face when sway says that girls from Catholic schools are freaks and heather says that she went to a catholic school? Priceless
this is what a real Christian looks like
Jesus is what we aspire to look like Philippians 4:9 his name is easy to say. Non perfection is no excuse to not want to aspire to be like Christ.
S/O to asway
Lecrae and Kendrick...........Where they at tho!
yeaaa stop
I love Lecrae. The one thing that always hurts to hear is a Christian not liking to be called a Christian first and foremost. Lecrae is a Christian rapper and should be proud of that fact. Not that silly thing where they call him a rapper who happens to be Christian. What is bad about being known as a Christian rapper. What is bad about being called a Christian therapist. What is bad about being called a Christian "insert your profession here". I do not get Christian being afraid to call themselves Christian before anything because if you are a Christian, then that is your title and should be happy to carry that title. Trying to please the world isn't going to get you anywhere you want to be.
I do like his response to the whole being a Christian rapper. God can work through anyone at anytime and I have no problem with nonchristians listening to his music if it hits them in the heart.
Because of the difference between "That Christian rapper!" And "oh that rapper happens to be Christian as well. It's the attitude associated with the way you combine those words. Same for every other profession.
I'm a Christian rapper lol check me out
Hey buddy, if you actually watch the video he takes care of your concerns fairly well.
He wants to reach out to a broader audience who may not find him if that title is attached to him. Kids today are into the trendy thing but being proud of your faith is not always the biggest trend among the youth. So many kids may not give him a chance if they hear he's a Christian rapper. However, if somebody said “hey kid, check out this new cool rapper cuz he got bars!" They may give em a chance and then realize he's a man of faith through his lyrics. Best :)
From his heart. ❤👀
I feel like the black community needs more role models like this guy right here. And i don't mean just the Christian thing, but just more stand up men. More positive people.
666 likes definitely hitting the like button to change that number. Good interview great job lecrae
The homie Lacrae!
17:44 had me dyin from laughter. Sway too funny
Sway a real one
lecrae thank you
Bless you.
Sway you should bring lecrae back up there and rap to loyal instrumental
the story by Joshua was the best part of the interview
I like this but sometimes I dont like the "pick on the christian and see if he slips and his lukewarm like the rest of us" vibe....I mean do yall joke and offer pork to muslim guests? Would yall joke and ask these questions to the president or a strong black political figure? Why you even ask these questions of say a Russel Simmons or a Diddy? Youre sitting there talking to the president of Reach Records who is leading many souls to the God who made you and you play with him like 5th graders? I dont mind jokes and silliness but what a way to show bankruptcy of character. I say, keep up the good work Crae!
He's the standard so he want to ask a real questions. They not trying to kill his character they challenging. With pastors cheating and stealing money they need to make try you to see if you're real. Those moments create ministry moments. The low self-esteem comment wouldn't have been heard if he didn't ask that question.
Diddy and Russell went through their fair share of challenging questions (Charlemagne)
I'm with ya Quabmasm. Why ask those so silly questions to a rapper who is trying preach the gospel thru hip hop.
because you have to test em. how can you know he's teal if you dont test em. plus they have the mentality of can and can't and they want to see where the line is. but i understand how you feel.
yeah man. Btw i wasn't satisfied that he didn't like the christian rapper title. I mean what he does is hip hoping a christian lines. Why not be called a christian rapper? i don't get it well
Stephan Terry At the end of the day, its not our job to test other Christians. Leave that up to God. We can make it our job to test ourselves
mad respect team sway ,sway is a grinder @lacrae @spdakaAce boom.
Damn this dude has Grammys? Respect.
I like how he talk about girls who have low self esteem because its so much girls who is trying so hard to impress a guy
LEcrae you could own the rap battles
haha 0-100 playing in the background at the beginning
that last question lol
These guys kill me
Lecrae's the man! (Of course, Lecrae would disagree with me and say, "I used to think I was 'the man' till I met Him, all that arrogance and pride, I dead 'em and forget 'em, I'ma saint!")
I'm just gonna say this. There's 4 things u don't argue about; Sports, Race, Music, and Religion. It's just gonna be an on going conversation with no point. So can't we just be happy that we have Christian rappers that are spreading Jesus through the world and not try to claim that they're not Christian and all this nonsense.
"Thats my nigga" hahaha
Aye let me fix the description right quick... it's not that he doesn't like being "categorized as a Christian rapper" really it's a segregation issue.
@AGodlyWiiUGuy-Joshua24:15 I think he says that because people hear christian rapper people just tune it out. They don't give it a chance but when they hear Gods words it's like drug in your vains it hits you hard. Touches your heart and plants a seed that will grow.
so when is lecrae gonna collaborate with jin?
You're tellin me Lecrae reached out to Kendrick and Kendrick was cool... and Lecrae changed his mind?? Ugh, I've been wanting to hear them work together for a while now and I really thought this was when it would happen.... oh well
Kendrick will probably have a record soon, and hopefully a Church Clothes 3 next year. Plenty of time for that Kendrick collab.
I could see one on CC3
If you deny me, I will deny you before my father
Lecrae should comes to breakfastclub to promote his album...
Yup him Derek Minor ,KB, Flame,Bizzle ALLLLL the truth but Barz for dayzz and not just fantasies and vain imaginations of Bugattis!
I don't believe in any religion,christian, or any other. but he is a good rapper. I wish him well
Why don't you follow any religion? Do you know why music can evoke emotions easier that any other sound? Because it touches your spirituality. Humans are spiritual creatures. We have souls.
Josh Schulz That doesn't mean we have to follow or believe in some man made religion. Who says that we have souls anyway? Can you prove this? Or is this more based on your opinion and interpretation of your religion?
Where do you think the term "I got soul" came from? There are certain things like music, spoken words, written words, visual art, ect, that "touch" you, or connect with you on a deeper level much more quickly than if you were watching something funny, or listening to the sounds of the city while walking down a busy street.
So when you hear a really beautiful piece of music, or piece of art, it instantly evokes emotions that give you perfect catharsis.
So if humans evolved from monkeys, how could we have developed are brains to love and connect with certain art so quickly, if we've only been intelligent creatures for this short amount of time? Keep in mind that humans have always created art, such as singing, playing instruments, painting, ect.
(You also completely ignored the question I asked.)
religion is nothing more than mans way to control masses. that's why I don't believe in them.
Maddie Madness That's not a very compelling argument, and you didn't answer any of my questions. It sounds like you don't believe in God's non-existence very strongly. Am I right?
11Six all day everyday.
Can pls anybody tell me what lecrae said about groupies because i dont understand english as well and he talked so fast that i cant und erstand the whole!thank you
he said he feels bad for them because deep down they have to have some insecurity for them to be throwing themselves at him
Thank you for the clearly answer :-)
Wow... didn't know Lecrae was a nupe... #respect
All I have to say...listen to Joshuas story and at 16 minutes and 23 seconds. listen who he say his wife serves. I've seen many interviews with Lecrae, hes a "slickster" as the older people will say. Do your homework people, dont just listen and watch for entertainment. KNOW WHAT YOU'RE LETTING IN YOUR SPIRIT!
I had to listen a couple of times but I caught it. That's tough... Joshua sounded very excited and was rushing through his story and could've just tripped up on his words... I do it when I try to rush and get out what I need to and then afterwards I'm like," Did I really say that?" I can see why it would be disconcerting +Dee Martin, but I really think it was his excitement that caused that. I love Lecrae because his life and his choices bring hope to millions who are "turned off" by Christian music because of what they think it implies. He's literally bringing the Word in a genre that's literally the belly of the beast...
A jackass is a Bentley
what up with his brand. Didnt understand it. Can anyone pls explain it to me? Would appreciate it
some frats brand you when you "cross" which means to make it in. he a kappa alpha psi so he prob has the kappa letter branded on his arm
ahh okay. thanks bro :)
i need a manager.....so that i record all my songs...i am a christian singer and rapper.
So you're a singer and rapper, who happens to be influenced by Jesus Christ?
I guess you could just say "I'm a singer and rapper" and people will figure out the rest.
#Rolemodel #Crae
You Know what,i'll seen alot of videos on people judging lecrae because he's a star and bigger then hip-hop,the only reason he be with hip-hop artist because they look up to him,they stay saying lecrae illumanati,This is big evidence that he's not,and when he says he just so happens to be rapper that's a christian ...he's not saying he's not,he;s saying that he's still a christian but just a rapper who tries to encourage people and the secular world....you might not know,he could help die out the secular world though lol #lecrae

Why is it every interview with this guy they clarify the raaper that's christian thing. We get it already, bringing it up now just hurts his rep still
Without a shadow of a doubt, it's not that Lecrae is a Christian rapper or a rapper that's a Christian; Lecrae is New hiphop, point blank...
I am not judging ya'll but when he asked him if he uses the N word he could have explained a lil bit about it instead of saying that he ain't perfect right? I am also a black guy but i kinda got confused on that question n answer. Have your say!!
What he meant by "I ain't perfect", was he would never say the N word if he could, but he knows he can always slip up. If he was perfect, he would gladly never say the N word, but he isn't, so he slips up.
What fraternity was he on about btw?
+christian makuta Lecrae is a Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity member.
Whether you claim to be Christian or you're a follower of Christ we will be ridiculed, discredited, and persecuted. Jesus has been through all of this and morewith no sin. They hated him without a cause. They even called Jesus Satan because of His miracles. It's funny to me how things haven't changed. It seems like we have more Pharisees in the world than people actually having a relationship with Christ. If you are still breathing and not incarcerated is only because of Grace. Grace is undeserving favor. We truthfully don't deserve salvation or any of the blessings, but God is faithful and just to forgive us. Striving for perfection doesn't mean we are perfect it's only improvements. This makes me wonder if people really believe that Jesus is fully God and man, because we exalt ourselves too much. It's one thing to imitate Christ, but to act as if you don't sin is mocking God (making Him a liar). Those that exalt themselves will be humbled and those that are humble will be exalted. We must walk in Christ but we must know our place as well or God will put you in yo place. Look what happened to Satan (Lucifer). Pride = unforgiving = destruction. Love Over Everything
Does this guy have any non-religious songs?
yes. not all of his songs are just preaching songs, he also talks about real issues
I'm a rapper who is Christian??!?
So...never mind. Never mind.
I am torn. Lacrea is an exceptional lyricist. I appreciate his clean, socially conscious work that challenges the framework of the stereotypical secular artist. My issue or my confusion is with that he represents. I thought he was a Christian rapper, but as he said and many of you have explained, he is a rapper, who happens to be a Christian. When we hear the world Christian, we automatically tie it with specific expectations of the way one should behave that lines up with the WORD of God. After listening to some of Lacrea's songs and this interview, he's starting to sound more secular. This is not to judge, Im just trying to figure out what he's all about . That's imperative to me because I dont want to mistakenly look to him as a representation of a Christian rapper. I'm trying to find new music that is set forward to minister.
Then there's the hip hop issue. Hip hop can't be tied to Christianity. Hip hop is a religion. It has roots that are opposed to and/or opposite of Christianity. Many people don't know that ir choose to ignore the facts surrounding hip hop. :/ I'm torn. He's a very talented rapper!!!! Lacrea replaces Wayne, Drake, and the other rappers killing the brain cells, but he confuses the Word, tge walk, the people. .. :/
if you love #hiphop then #google Rockey Washington
Soo funny. Black people need a lesson from these people lol. Glory to Jesus!
As a white teenager, that was kinda racist. Only black people? Lots of other people need to hear the truth!
RetroKittyFilms Yeah, sorry didn't mean it like that..
How can you add Glory to Jesus at the end of this SMH
Dwayne Bradford Well when you have (mostly) black rappers that rap about sex, drugs, objectify women, and violence; it's the truth. I'm friends with black people okay? lol.. chill.
Sway is fake, he interviews gangsters and now reaches out to Lecrea. You don't know what Anomaly means. Really.?
