Description

In her interview with Lecrae, Nyla Symone dives into the rapper’s journey, creative evolution, and upcoming album Reconstruction (out August 22). Lecrae opens up about breaking into mainstream hip hop with Church Clothes, navigating the “Christian rapper” label, and choosing authenticity over chasing fame. He unpacks the meaning behind Reconstruction, emphasizing that broken people can be rebuilt, and shares personal stories—including the loss of his cousin to fentanyl. The conversation also touches on Lecrae’s faith-driven approach to music, his thoughts on collaborating across genres, and a humorous moment involving Kendrick Lamar mentioning him during the Drake beef. Lecrae reflects on his growth, saying he’s at peace being in the tension between worlds, as long as he stays true to who he is. Tune in and comment in the socials below.
