Lecrae's newest album is called "Rehab" and it has been out for awhile now,
and I absolutely love it! I've heard a lot of Lecrae songs, but this
is actually the first full album that i've purchased.
I've said it before, "I'm not a huge rap fan"…but man I love Lecrae/Flame/C-lite
and Jesus Disciple. You can just feel the Holy spirit igniting that fire
while they write their rhymes. The first song on the album is called "Check in"
and it's about checking into "Rehab" I.E surrendering all you are to
Christ(to put it in very simple terms) I love the beat and the lines
"I like the feel but HATE the taste of the product like the numb on your tongue
when you taste narcotics"
"I'm ready for Rehab just do what you gunna do"
The very next song is called "Killa" it's easy to see that the song is about
the temptation of sin, I thought it was very well produced. "Divine Intervention"
featuring J.R follows "Killa", and it also is a fantastic song I love the lines..
"ignorant that our decent lead to hell fire, and when I yell fire they tell me
"False alarm" because they don't smell the smoke and they don't sense the harm/
theres something worse then the black plagues comin/ and nothing under the
sun can save us from it. "
once again the very next song also stands out, it's softer but is a great song
called "Just like You"(Featuring J.Paul) really nothing else needs to be said about it, very good song. By the way this album, at least the version I got off Itunes,
has 17 songs, honestly not many albums now adays have more then 10.
A lot of the songs on "Rehab" are actually quite good, so it would probably
be faster if I just named the "Lack luster songs"…but I wont..
The next song that stood out to me was "Used to do it too"(Featuring KB)
I like the beat and overall flow to the song, by the way it's a nice song to listen
to while you are bombing through some powder on the mountain =)
just saying… probably my favorite line is..
"But I aint fix myself aint turn myself around, I gave it up and told the Lord He can
have it now"
the next song is called "Children of the Light" and it stood out to me because of
who it featured "Sonny Sandoval"(dude from P.O.D) but honestly for me
the song is disappointing and would be a song I'd file under "Lack-luster"
The very next song however just might be my favorite on the album, it's called
"High" and features Suzy Rock, very cool bass beat.. and rhymes enough said.
"i'm illuminated open up my eyes
now the Spirit showin me the Word is alive
i was so low, now i'm so high
regenerated mind telling me that i'm alive
and it's workin, i'm so certain
confident He created me for a purpose
somewhere in-between the jeans that yall jerkin
and them khakis that ganstas work-workin
no purpose sir so worthless
i catch re-real contact when i worship "
Im crank-cranked up like i'm poppin no dose
no dose, homie don't sleep
world full of them sheep with the sharp teeth
don't don't start me, on that lighter fluid
"40 Deep" is the next song that stands out to me first because
it features "Tedashii and Trip Lee" and also because the beat
is beast, absolutely love it.
"God is Enough" features Flame and Jai and really stands out to me
because of the chorus and Lecrae's rhymes for example..
You know you sick of lookin', you sick of chasin'
I think you know the truth, you just don't wanna face it
Your life is empty, though you havin' fun
You never satisfied, you never get enough
You go from thrill-seekin' to pill-poppin'
From heavy drinkin' to club-hoppin'
You just can't stop it, like you're a slave
And you chasin' nothin' all the way into the grave
The next song that stood out and the first song that I heard before I got the album is called "Background" featuring C-Lite, it's soft for sure…
but is absolutely relatable and makes me just nod my head through every line, my second favorite on the album.
overall "Rehab" is an amazing album from Lecrae..I can't compare
it to an older album of his because like I said this is my first full
album from him. Godly rhymes with killer beats..
