Lecrae has long stood against the status-quo. A leader in the mainstream Christian Hip-Hop movement, the Reach Records MC is hard at work on his seventh studio LP, Anomaly. “Nuthin” finds Lecrae skating down a sidewalk, in reverse.” Meanwhile, the song kicks awareness about the hypocrites and mixed messages in the media, from drinking Lean to materialism, to violence. The beat flips the Club Noveau (aka Timex Social Club) jam re-popularized by Yukmouth and Numbskull, before a host of copycats in the late ’90s and early 2000s.

With a different approach than Heads may be used to from Lecrae, could he play a key hand in 2014’s increased consciousness?
