Christian hip-hop artist Lecrae gets real on faith and freedom in identity

As a Christian hip-hop artist, entrepreneur and New York Times bestselling author, Lecrae spends most of his time challenging stereotypes and redefining what it means to live authentically in both the church and the culture. His latest project, "Set Me Free," is a powerful collection of poetry and essays that explores identity, belonging and spiritual resilience. From wrestling with discomfort in certain faith communities to embracing his roots in hip-hop and Black culture, Lecrae invites viewers into his literary journey of healing and self-expression. In a thought-provoking interview with UATL reporter Christopher Daniel, the musician and podcaster opens up about the intersection of his passions and the freedom that it brings him.
