Forget rocking a Jesus piece in the name of fashion—Lecrae is a real-deal Christian rapper. His 2004 studio debut, Real Talk, established the Houston native's talent as he dropped heavy-duty flows over electronic-inspired production. Having slipped into the drug game before finding his way through music, the rapper imbues his body of work with themes of redemption and growth, which he conveys with sincerity. Scoring a GRAMMY® for 2012's Gravity increased the reach of his message.
