Nominated for multiple awards throughout his career, Lecrae has blazed an unchartered path, winning two Grammy Awards. His hit single "All I Need Is You" from Anomaly garnered across-the-board acclaim, earning a 2015 Grammy nomination for Best Rap Performance. Rolling Stone Magazine ranked Anomaly - Lecrae's 7th album to date - at #12 on their list of the Best 40 Albums Of The Year. 
 

This summer Lecrae celebrated the release of his memoir, Unashamed, which immediately debuted as a New York Times Best Seller landing in the Top 10 of the Nonfiction category. It was also announced that the groundbreaking rap artist had signed a deal with Columbia Records and his own label, Reach Records.

Lecrae has shared the stage with Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole as well as hip hop legends Wu-Tang Clan, Rakim and Common, and he has co-headlined some of the best-selling tours in the U.S., according to Pollstar.  This fall Lecrae will embark on "The Destination Tour, You're Accepted," a headlining tour kicking off October 25th in Columbia, SC with stops in New York City, Philadelphia, Chicago and more.
