How did Lecrae Make His Money?
Born on October 9, 1979, in Houston, Texas, Lecrae’s childhood was rather turbulent. Not only was his father a drug addict, but he also fell victim to sexual molestation at the age of eight. As a teen, things only got worse after he started to deal drugs. Ultimately, it wasn’t until he was arrested for drug possession that he decided to turn his life around.
In 2004, he released his debut album, Real Talk. A Christian hip-hop record, it contained fourteen tracks including Take Me As I Am, The Church and We Don’t. From there, he dropped his second album, After the Music Stops in 2006. An improvement over his first title, it peaked at number 17 on the Top Christian Albums music chart.
On a roll, he continued to release albums on a regular basis over the next few years. Some of these titles include Rebel, Rehab, and Rehab: The Overdose, all of which made it onto the US music charts. In 2012, he came out with Gravity, his first album to reach the Top 5 on the US Billboard 200 music chart. Ultimately, it gave rise to two charting singles, I Know and Tell the World, the latter of which featured Mali Music.
Since then, the rapper has released two additional albums, Anomaly, and All Things Work Together, the former of which has since gone gold in the US.
Considering his work as a recording artist, it only makes sense that he’s earned a decent amount from the above-mentioned releases.
On top of what he pulls in from his solo releases (i.e. albums and singles), he also makes money as an occasional record producer. Over the years, he has worked with several artists including Trip Lee, Tedashii, and She Baraka. Some of the songs that he has helped to produce include Kingdom People, If They Only Knew, and Turn My Life Up, among others.
As far as other ventures go, he has worked on a number of films (mostly documentaries). For example, he has been featured in Welcome to the Family Documentary, The Cross, and Everything Must Go. In 2014, he also played the part of Dr. Malmquist in the feature film, Believe Me.
