Lecrae thanks God for Grammy wins

(CP) Christian hip-hop artist Lecrae thanked Jesus for “using broken instruments to play healing music” and for being “my all in all in every part” after snagging two Grammy Awards in Christian music categories on Sunday night.

At the 66th annual Grammy Awards on Feb. 4 in Los Angeles, the 44-year-old artist won Contemporary Christian Album with Church Clothes 4 and Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song for “Your Power” with Tasha Cobb.

“I do not even have words at this point and time,” Lecrae said after accepting the awards, flanked onstage by his daughter. “At the top of the day, so many individuals put a lot labor into this music, into this project. … Every single soul who touched this project, everybody who listened to it, enjoyed it, understand that, man, the gift that all of us possess, like I said before, I actually have to offer credit to the Lord Jesus for just being my all in all in every part, to permit me to talk the words that I actually have in art.”

Lecrae also celebrated his wins on social media: “I have not fully processed all of it yet,” he captioned a photograph holding his two Grammy Awards. “I’m grateful but it surely’s really something beyond my understanding. I just desired to be the daddy I never had and provides my kids experiences. God is beyond kind. Once I actually have more words I’ll share but for now… Thank you God for being gracious. Thank you Jesus for allowing me to be a component of your kingdom and using broken instruments to play healing music.”

With his two awards, the artist beat out other nominees including Blessing Offor, Cody Carnes, Lauren Daigle, for KING & COUNTRY, Phil Wickham and Maverick City Music.

Christian artist Tye Tribbett snagged Best Gospel Album for All Things New: Live In Orlando; Blind Boys Of Alabama won Best Gospel Roots album for Echoes Of The South and Kirk Franklin snagged Best Gospel Performance/Song for “All Things.”

Franklin, who performed “All Things,” “Melodies From Heaven” and “I Smile” on the 2024 Grammys Premiere Performance, has won a staggering 20 Grammy Awards throughout his profession.

Last 12 months, Lecrae also won “Rap/Hip-Hop Album of the Year” for Church Clothes 4 on the Dove Awards.
