etc etc.

Basically I need some segue artists like Lecrae to introduce to not only me, but my friends. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Are you looking for secular-to-christian or just similar artists?

 

[Masdamind99]

Both.

 

[Non sequitur]

Both.

Ok.

Can you name some artists you like, currently, or genres?

 

[Masdamind99]

Ok.

Already did. Eminem, Jay Z, Drake, Beyonce, etc. Popular artists.

 

[Non sequitur]

So rap, rap, rap and hip-hop.

(That's why I was asking genres.)

Guess, I'll go with that. If you like anything outside of that genre, let me know as it's more my taste.

Naturally, some of these may contain explicit language. So, DANGER, WARNING, ETC!

Flo Rida Flo Rida - Wild Ones ft. Sia

Rihanna Rihanna - What's My Name? ft. Drake

B.o.B B.o.B - Both of Us ft. Taylor Swift

Wiz Khalifa Wiz Khalifa - No Sleep

L M F A O L M F A O - Sexy and I Know It

Nicki Minaj Nicki Minaj - Starships​

There's no guarantee that if you like Kid Rock you'll like TobyMac. I would about as soon listen to Kid Rock, myself.

There's no guarantee that if you like Maroon 5, you'll love Jars of Clay.

I know that Hootie and The Blowfish, Matchbox 20 or Creed have been copied to death in CCM, but there's no guarantee you'll love Third Day.

I think the question is not getting through persay.
Again, I gave an example:
If u like Jay Z, u will love Lecrea.

What im asking for is a christian artist segue to a secular ear. Basically what artists that a non christian person listens to can they also enjoy from a christian music place?

It might be because you are being slightly contradictory.

"If u like Jay Z, u will love Lecrea." (Secular -> Christian)

"A christian artist segue to a secular ear" means "a christian artist smoothly transitioned to a secular listener" (Christian -> Secular)

Did you mean you wanted a christian alternatives to secular artists or secular alternatives to christian artists?

Christian alernatives to secular artists. Basically Christian artists who are somewhat similar in style, not in subject matter, but style to secular artists.

Gotcha.

Well, I can't help there (no surprise), but if you are looking for different secular music, let me know.
