    For our 6th annual Highlighting feature, we've done things a little differently. Normally, we select our top 25 most anticipated releases for the whole year, but we realize that it's tough to really gauge EVERYTHING that may release throughout a given year when we're making the list in January. So, for 2012, we've split the year into TWO pieces -- January to June and June to December. Also, we're making each list 15 artists/releases for a total of 30 in 2012.

We've already selected the first fifteen artists, so please click here to check those out. Without further ado, we give you Highlighting Second-Half 2012!

#12. Lecrae
Gravity

Release Date: Late 2012
Lecrae is one of the best and most well-known rappers in the Christian industry. He recently released his Church Clothes Mixtape and is focusing on his next full-length. With the sucess of Rehab and Rehab: The Overdose, Lecrae has a little pressure to deliver. While expectations are high, there should be no problem with Lecrae releasing another solid album. I was so excited to hear about Lecrae doing another record this year and now I just want to hear it.
        - Michael Weaver

Lecrae burst onto the Christian hip hop scene in 2004 and made a huge impression on raps fan all over. However, his last two albums have given many fans the "flash in the pan" vibe and we are now strongly hoping for another stellar installment from Lecrae. Time will tell if we get another After The Music Stops or another Rehab.
