Lecrae Calls Out Lil Nas X Over Controversial “J.Christ” Release
For many years, Christian rapper Lecrae has used hip-hop as a platform to motivate his fans and communicate his religion. Therefore, it is unsurprising that Lecrae recently disapproves of Lil Nas X’s latest album, saying he feels like it’s “mocking” the Lord. The 21-year-old Georgian rapper Lil Nas X is most recognized for his famous song “Old Town Road.” Whichever way you feel about the matter, it’s evident that Lecrae is enthusiastic about using his music to motivate people to live meaningful lives and to share great messages. He is free to express his thoughts on matters that appear to challenge his religious beliefs.
Lecrae posted a screenshot of a tweet on January 13 on Instagram, expressing his opinions about the possible repercussions of Lil Nas X’s behaviour. Lecrae claimed in the tweet that Lil Nas X is “leading a generation to Satan” and that his songs are “dangerous” and “deceptive.” Lecrae cautioned his fans regarding the music they hear and the messages they absorb. Music lovers, especially LNX fans, were divided over Lecrae’s statement, and many have taken to social media to voice their feelings, too. Some perceive Lil Nas X’s music as reflecting his personal experiences and ideas, while others share Lecrae’s worries.
