![]() ![]() I wanna grow something that is already on par with what’s already been built. I think that’s the goal with me for Reflection Music Group. I think what it’s gonna take for hip hop as a whole is you’re gonna have to see more independent labels putting up good numbers and also making a huge impact. I think my album Empire was groundbreaking in the sense that I was the only artist that is independent that was nominated for a rap category Dove Award. And they’re like “Wow, Reach Records is doing well.” But they don’t see Christian hip hop as a whole putting up those same numbers. But I think if you’re asking “what is the next step?”, I think right now there are people looking and they see Reach Records. It’s crazy to watch all the success that my brothers have experienced. It’s awesome what Reach Records has created. One of the reasons my deal with Reach Records was so short was because I wanted to build my own record label. I love seeing that. Based off the success of Christian hip hop the last few years, what do you think is the next step in order for it to be even more successful?ĭerek Minor: That’s a good question. ![]() ![]() Gabe: That’s good! So, the Dove Awards just happened! And I know you were nominated for a few and you even won one with Lecrae. Gabe: So you’re pretty confident in your game I guess.ĭerek Minor: Very confident, my friend ( laughs). They also went on the record of saying that you’re the biggest trash talker on the court.ĭerek Minor: Beyond the shadow of a doubt. We asked them if they were the captain of a basketball team, their first pick would be Lecrae. We’ve interviewed KB, Trip Lee, and Tedashii. Gabe: I have to get this question out of the way first. We talked recently about being independent, his record Empire, and his thoughts on Kendrick Lamar. ![]() Arguably, he’s the most successful Christian rapper that is not on Reach Records. One of the best artists in Christian hip hop is Derek Minor. ![]()
