Let The Trap Say Amen is the first collaboration project between Lecrae and Zaytoven. The album was first announced on February 23, 2018, in an interview with Ergy. In the interview he stated he has a track with Waka Flocka Flame coming with the album. The title of the project was announced on May 24, 2018, along with an article with DJBooth explaining the mind behind the album. In the article, Lecrae touched on the history of trap and how it’s not just “glorifying negativity.” When you hear the term “trap music” you most likely think of an ode to drugs, dealing, money, and mayhem. But truthfully, the production sets the scene first. Dope boys want to rap over a particular soundscape. Zaytoven, Metro Boomin, and Murda Beatz, amongst others, provide that. There was a trap beat before anyone glorified trap life over it and there are more stories from the Trap that have yet to be told. Kendrick’s done it, Kodak Black spilled his heart out, my brother Thi’sl from St. Louis has as well. The trap does more than say “Aye.” It says “Amen.”
