On August 21st, Grammy-Award winning artist, best-selling author, and social activist Lecrae dropped his highly anticipated album “RESTORATION” via Reach Records.

“There is healing on this album, but you have to be willing to admit you’re broken in order to be healed,” expressed Lecrae about his 9th studio album, Restoration.

This week, Lecrae shared the news that Restoration topped Billboard’s Top Christian Albums chart on week 1. Restoration debuted at #69 on Billboard’s Top 200 overall.

The album features artists across all genres including John Legend, Kirk Franklin, YK Osiris, Jozzy, Dani Leigh, Marc E. Bassy, BJ The Chicago Kid and more.

In support of the release, Lecrae has debuted three singles thus far, the first “Set Me Free,” features YK Osiris (produced by GAWVI), followed by “Deep End,” (produced by Anthony Gardner).

A highlight of the album is the latest single, “Drown” featuring John Legend (producers Danny Majic, DJ Frank E, and Ace Harris).

Lecrae is also releasing his second book, I Am Restored: How I Lost My Religion, But Found My Faith, on October 13th. This text will be a follow-up to his New York Times best-seller, Unashamed.
