So chances are, you know Lecrae. And chances are that if you read this blog, you've probably already downloaded your copy of Church Clothes 2. No idea? Let's do a little history. Lecrae dropped Church Clothes (1) on Datpiff last May and the mixtape was downloaded 100,000 times in less than 48 hours, eventually totaling over 500k downloads and becoming a double platinum album. Lecrae that year won his first Grammy (for his album Gravity) and Church Clothes 2 was thus, very highly anticipated. In the first couple days of listening to it, Lecrae definitely kept his hot streak going. While yes, he may draw some criticism from Christians for featuring non-"Christian rappers" like Paul Wall, B.O.B. and David Banner, Lecrae has kept the same overall message and has even responded to people's worries of him getting off track so to speak (and did a good job of it too, IMO).
But here's "Believe" by Lecrae, his second song off CC2 and some of the lyrics:
You would it never seen it coming
A couple months ago I'm getting high with my cousin
And fast forward now around campus I'm buzzing
Not really but it felt like that, it felt like rap was just another passion
Never thought I'd be at the Grammy's talking about my fashion
You don't believe in God? Well how do you explain what happened?
I promise we ain't plan it now Christians unashamed from Zambia to Manhattan
Still lookin for the pattern? Come on!
(Chorus)
What would it take to make you believe?
More fire from the sky? Another parting the sea?
The honest truth is, that you ain't got the power to see
And let me take you on this journey, it all started with me
The even better news is you don't have to pay for it - Lecrae has the entire mixtape on Datpiff for download right here!
Enjoy,
Felix
