Atlanta, Ga. (Nov. 5, 2014)-Hip Hop artist, poet, pastor and author Trip Lee has delivered another outstanding record, with his latest album Rise reigning at No. 1 on Billboard's Gospel Album and landing in the Top 5 on Billboard's Hip Hop, Indie, Christian & Digital chart and within Top 20 on Billboard's Top 200.

Executive produced by long friend and Grammy award winning producer Gawvi (Lecrae, Andy Mineo), Trip's fifth studio album is a call-to-action for fans to experience and live life to the fullest, while still honoring their faith and beliefs.

In support of the new album, Trip has been seen on major platforms such as The Washington Times, Vibe.com, The Source, Hip Hop DX, The Christian Post, Relevant, Breathecast, Rapzilla and more. Additionally, critics far and wide show their support for the record:

"Musically, Rise is a beautiful album from first to last. The music is diverse and yet solidly hip-hop. It is commercial, but soulful and genuine."- Rapzilla.com

"Musically more diverse than any of his previous works, Rise is just another example of Trip Lee growing and challenging himself as an artist. CHH fans should be lining up for this one."-Jesusfreakhideout.com

"Too often, musicians tend to settle into a grove that either sounds exactly like what they've done before (or worse, like everyone else), but here, Lee delivers a knockout album…."- HollywoodJesus.com

Fans can catch the chart-topping artist perform songs from his latest release on the Winter Jam 2014 Tour as he joins the all-star lineup for select dates throughout the remainder of the year. For a full list of tour dates, please visit http://www.jamtour.com/home.
