Lecrae will celebrate the release of his memoir with a signing at Barnes & Noble, Tribeca location, at 97 Warren St (between Greenwich and West Streets) on Tuesday, May 3 from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

Along his pilgrimage, Lecrae attained an unwavering faith and began looking to God for affirmation. Now as a chart-topping music industry anomaly, he has learned to silence the noise and make peace with his craft. The hip-hop star holds nothing back as he divulges the most sensitive details of his life, answers his critics, shares intimate handwritten journal entries, and powerfully models how to be Christian in an ever-growing secular age.


This is the story of one man's journey to faith and freedom. And Lecrae dives deep into territory considered taboo for such an artist.

"If you live for people's acceptance, you'll die from their rejection." - Lecrae

"I had learned to be unashamed in the midst of a fallen world. Now I needed to learn to be unashamed in the midst of a religious world." - Lecrae

"Critics always have a lot of fury. But they rarely have a lot of facts." - Lecrae

As part of the campaign, B&H Publishing rewarded fans who pre-purchased Unashamed by giving them the choice of exclusive campaign items including a song track by Lecrae, an Unashamed 116 t-shirt, and more.

Lecrae is a Grammy award winning hip-hop artist whose 2014 album, Anomaly, debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200, Rap, Digital, Christian, Gospel, and Independent charts.
