Trip Lee – Between Two Worlds Released

Lecrae.net — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 12:46:24 +0000

Finally, the most anticipated album of the year for Christian hip Hop is here. Trip Lee’s album Between Two Worlds is devoted to helping people see life in a broken world properly (the way God sees it). The album is in many ways a collection of reflections on life in our fallen world. It’s meant to celebrate the good things, be real about the difficult things, and look hopefully towards the solution. It’s not meant to be a comprehensive study on life in a fallen world, only reflections on some of the things that were on my heart. It’s almost like a reality show, not depicting just my life, but all of our lives. And my desire was for all of my reflections to be rooted in a biblical worldview. So I talk about human limitations, friendships, even music, but of course from a Christian perspective.

Trip says he chose the title” Between Two Worlds” because that is where he finds himself. And the cover is meant to reflect that reality. “Not only am I fallen, but I live in a world that is fallen, interacting with fallen people and fallen situations. However, as a believer my citizenship is in Heaven (Philippians 3:20-21) and I look to the day when Jesus will ‘recreate’ His creation. So while I seek to navigate life in this world, I look forward to the new Heaven and new Earth (Revelation 21). But until I get there, I worship and follow the Hero who already saved the day.”

What is Your Favorite Lecrae Song?

I am sure if you at this site, you are a Lecrae fanatic. If not, then I am sure it was a divine anointing by God directing you here. Regardless, my boys and I have been discussing the best of what Lecrae has to offer lyrically and phonetically. I think there is little doubt in our heads his talent surpasses many that preceded him. Over the past few years, Christian rap artists have made a real statement in the secular arena with better beats and radical rhymes. This alone has changed lives and hearts to God!

The recent release of his newest CD entitled Rebel, Lecrae has exceeded expectations and has created a masterpiece to the ear. He has shown that is true potential may still be within his soul in desperation to be heard. After listening his second album After the music stops, I thought that was about as good as it can possibly get. His approach to preaching the word of God through music was like nothing I had heard before. Sure T-Bone and Grits are very talented, I don’t doubt that, but something was different with Lecrae. His lyrics, his tone, his style captured me in a unique way.

Over the next week, I will be posting a top 10 list of the best Lecrae songs to date. This list includes some songs on his own albums, and some songs in which he was featured on others’ albums. I encourage you all to listen to these songs if you have not yet done so. Without further adieu, here it numbers 10-7:
