It is a mature work, Lecrae’s best album, and my top album of the year thus far.
This hard-hitting and honest album is strong from start to finish and features Lecrae collaborating with many different artists. Lecrae has stated that the idea of the album is that the dark times have worked together for him to become the person he is today. The album title is taken from Romans 8:28: And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. Beginning in October, 2016, six songs were released in advance of the album’s release, building excitement. This highly anticipated major label debut from Lecrae is his first album since January 2016’s mixtape Church Clothes 3, and it doesn’t disappoint. Album of the Year | Posted September 22, 2017
