Critic Reviews
Show All-
HIP HOP DX
The project features more of Lecrae Moore’s commendable conviction over colorful, albeit repetitive, Zaytoven production.

CCM
From lyrics about the dangers of material success to finding holiness in the midst of poverty, Let the Trap Say Amen does just that—it allows the disenfranchised, the underserved, the voiceless, to shout praise to the King.

THE HAYSTACK
As far as I’m concerned, Lecrae’s strongest material this decade has just happened to be on his mixtapes. What he manages to achieve with relevance on Let The Trap Say Amen also means he undersells the lyricism displayed on those other releases. For someone else, this record might be a hit. For me, it’s passable for casual listening, and doesn’t shake any of my faith in Lecrae’s skills or credibility as an artist.

JAM THE HYPE
There is no doubt that Lecrae has grown in talent & skill as well as in content and the focus of his influence. Let The Trap Say Amen is no exception as he adjusts to the lyrical style and form to a trap sound with what some would call a mumble rap flow, though a bit more polished than most.

JAS Reviews
This album is straight up disappointing, and sometimes made me angry because I know Lecrae's potential. Besides the couple of good tracks I mentioned, you should probably skip out on this album unless you're an avid Lecrae fan.
