Wow, 20yrs. I been following Lecrae and 116 music for along time. One of reasons why I started going to church on a regular basis. Christian hip-hop. Then eventually gave my life to the lord

Started listening to Lecrae from 2007 when I was in the university and 116 Clique inspired me and my hommies to form CIA clique (CIA = Christ I Abide) taking inspiration from John 15:4...we were at your concert in Nigeria and it was so unreal. Thank God for the impact of what you guys did and keep doing.

The respect I have for Lecrae and now Ben just went to another level. They put in the work letting God use them then and now. 🙌🏾

What a great interview, the last five minutes might have been my favorite. “Plant the seed and water it, it will grow, but you’re not promised the biggest orchard” GREAT WORD🙏

Thank you guys for doing this. I’ve always wanted to hear from Ben, so it’s cool that y’all dragged him in 😂. Plus, hearing some of the origins of this thing really shows how God is still using you guys in ways unimaginable!

[austingregory]

I had a random thought yesterday about Ben washer and how I grew up on reach records, always heard his name but never heard anything from him. Really cool to finally hear him and his heart behind it all, and his and lecrae story! Love it!

[Pwrightinspires]

Many of these stories bring me back to my senior year of high school, early years of college, and my first born son. Good, good memories. So glad to hear the origins of this movement. Also this explains some of the changes and growth of the guys. To God be the glory.

[Untidldlifts]

I wonder why they didn't touch on their early relationship with Cross Movement Records. They played a huge roll in their early stages.
