On the low, Christian rapper Lecrae has been experiencing some big time success. The spiritual artist from Texas had a number 1 album, won a Grammy, and even had a book on the New York Time’s best seller list.

The gospel rapper (who considers himself a regular Hip-Hop rapper) dropped by the Breakfast Club to speak about growing up without religion, praying for the Atlanta Falcons, and why he doesn’t show his kids on social media.

Here are the 9 things we learned from Lecrae on The Breakfast Club.
