Creating a fashionable blend of electronic pop, dance, rap and hip-hop, Group 1 Crew embeds themes of friendship, identity and spiritual help into twelve new musical amalgamations. Whether through melodic rap on the suavely produced worship verses of “Need Your Love,” hooky auto-tuned vocal leads on the aptly titled “Lean on Me,” or a contagious Motown backbone on “Wait”—a relatable versification of the patient quest for a lifelong mate—the uniquely talented trio ushers good pop music for the Christian music and world.
