Biography
Lecrae Devaughn Moore built a career bridging Christian faith and mainstream hip-hop credibility. Born October 9, 1979, in the US, he released his first two albums, Real Talk (2004) and After the Music Stops (2006), independently before Rebel (2008) became the first Christian hip-hop album to top Billboard's Gospel chart. Rehab (2010) brought mainstream attention, accelerated by his 2011 BET Hip Hop Awards Cypher performance and a guest spot on Statik Selektah's "Live and Let Live". Gravity (2012) cemented his legacy—called the most important album in Christian hip-hop history by Rapzilla and Atlanta Daily World—and earned him a Grammy for Best Gospel Album at the 55th Annual Awards, a first for any hip-hop artist. Anomaly (2014) debuted atop the Billboard 200, the first album to simultaneously peak on both the main chart and the Gospel chart. He signed with Columbia Records in May 2016 and released All Things Work Together (2017) and Let the Trap Say Amen (2018) with producer Zaytoven before parting ways in early 2020. Beyond music, he co-founded three entities: Reach Records (2004), ReachLife Ministries (2007), and 3 Strand Films (2019). His filmography spans A Cross to Bear (2012), Believe Me (2014), Superfly (2018), and Breakthrough (2019). As a Life Path 9, his work reflects the humanitarian drive of a born bridge-builder; a Libra, he channels that balance into advocacy—partnering with Dwyane Wade on This Is Fatherhood (2013) under the Obama administration and distributing aid to homeless Atlantans during COVID-19.
