In a recent video, Lecrae Moore opens up about the valuable life lessons he has experienced in both his music career and personal life. Whilst reflecting on his struggles with rejection, self discovery and personal growth Lecrae goes on to share his wisdom that resonates to others navigating their own journey to success and purpose. In the conversation with 247HH Lecrae delves into how rejection, his faith, authenticity, and journey with self discovery has played a central part in his journey to success of being one of the influential figures in Christian Hip-Hop Music.

The Impact Of Rejection: Turning Setbacks Into Strengths 

In addition to this, Lecrae explores the major impact that rejection has had on him from the music industry to the christian community and to life in general. Whilst rejection can be a huge setback and cause the feelings of being an outcast from society, Lecrae uses rejection as a way to grow and transform into being your best authentic self, this is emphasised by ‘If You Live For People Acceptance You Will Die From Their Rejection’ – (Lecrae Moore, 2016). Through his experience of doubts and rejection from within himself and others around him, Lecrae advises that his younger self would have embraced rejection not to be a signal of failure but instead a process of growth. This is due to the fact that during early in Lecrae’s music career he was often subjected to his sound not fitting into mainstream Hip-Hop music as the message of his music was too niche as well as not fitting into Gospel music as the sound and instrumentation of his music was too mainstream. However, with each rejection became the opportunity to refine his creativity as well as growth for his passion of Hip-Hop music whilst keeping his faith at the centre of all. 

The Journey Of Self Discovery : Living As Your Authentic Self 

On the other hand, a key lesson that Lecrae reflects on is his journey of self discovery. In the early stages of his music career Lecrae wrestled with his identity of being a music artist and being a person of the Christian faith. This mainly was due to the external pressure of conforming to industry standards when that lifestyle contrasted with aspects of his Christian identity. However, it was only until Lecrae accepted to embrace his full authentic self through his values and morals, faith, and unique view on life. Lecrae views that the road to success is not about being like everyone else and living to others expectations but instead finding and embracing your true identity is the ultimate goal of living to succeed with a life purpose.

The Role Of Faith 

The role of faith has been a crucial element to Lecrae’s life and music career. The foundation of the christian faith has provided Lecrae with clarity and direction. In spite of receiving negative comments from both the music industry and the faith community, Lecrae has expressed that he has found courage in his faith which has kept him grounded in making the right choices in life.
