Anomaly

Anomaly is the seventh studio album by American Christian hip hop artist Lecrae, released on September 9, 2014, through Reach Records. The album features appearances from Crystal Nicole, Kari Jobe, and For King & Country, along with label-mate Andy Mineo. Anomaly met with a positive critical reception, and the song "Nuthin'", released for streaming as a promotional single on July 1, 2014, was nominated for the 2014 BET Hip Hop Awards in the best Impact Track category. In May 2014, Reach Records held two limited pre-release listening sessions, one session at Stonecrest Mall in Atlanta, Georgia and another at Strght and Nrrw in Jacksonville, Florida for the song "Nuthin'" from Lecrae's upcoming album, the title of which at that time had yet to be revealed. On June 3, 2014, Lecrae announced the title of the album, Anomaly, as well as the album's release date, then set as August 2014. He said: "Conceptually, it’s about how I deviate from the norm just being a product of Hip-Hop, but yet staying true to who I am and what I’m about, even though the culture is going its own route. It’s saying ‘Man, I don’t care.
