Lecrae "Rehab" Murks charts


Rehab… We all need it… Lecrae takes us on a musical ride of rehabilitation. He states that we are all addicted so something, whether that something is sex, drugs, thug life, or being a liar. He touches many frames of life and teaches how to deal with it under Christian principles. Not the religious views of Christianity but the real views of everyday life. Pretty much saying no one is perfect and we all need work but Christ is the one that teaches us daily on how to be more complete. This album features guest appearances from Sonny Sandoval of P.O.D, J.R of So Hot Productions, Flame of Clear sight Music, and many of his label mates of Reach Records. Rehab Debuted #1 on iTunes in US, UK, Australia, and Canada. Pushing down some of the more marketed and air played artist such as Eminem’s “Recovery” & Drake’s “Thank me Later”. These albums where pushed down to number 2 and 3 spots earlier this summer by Lecrae’s label mate Trip Lee when his album Between Two Worlds debuted. Here is where they sit today in the US of A: #1 Lecrae “Rehab” #2 Beastie Boys “Licensed to Ill” #3 Drake “Thank me Later” #4 Trip Lee “Between two Worlds” #5 Eminem “Recovery”. It also appears as I was writing this Rehab just claimed the #1 spot in New Zealand, #3 in Finland Most people know that when a new album comes out your old album sales increase. That being said the # 7 spot on US iTunes Hip-Hop Albums charts is none other than Rebel. Rebel is the 2008 ground breaking Christian Hip-Hop album that smashed records I give this album 4 out of 5 stars. The same ranking I gave Recovery by Eminem. http://www.apple.com/euro/itunes/cha...hopalbums.html
