NASHVILLE, USA —  Lecrae is heading back to school in 2016. The two-time Grammy® Award-winning hip-hop artist, known for his music message frequently at odds with his hip-hop peers, has fans buzzing with excitement at the announcement that he’ll be hitting the road on February 9, 2016 for his HIGHER LEARNING TOUR stopping at college campuses and in college towns across the country.

“This tour allows me to be involved and inspire some of the most impactful and influential leaders of tomorrow,” said Lecrae.

“College is where many of the world-changing thoughts and ideas are birthed. I want my music and my message to help inspire those ideas.”
