"Wonderful "

I have been a singer for nearly four years now. Singing is easy. Anyone can do it. Singing WELL is another story. And all the work that goes into it, the writing and production, performing and promotion its a trip I tell you.

But there are moments when its worth it. To sit with my band in the booth cracking our jokes and adding syncopations and getting tired of playing the same loop over and over again till we get it right are all a beautiful part of our process. Of my process.

Next month I release the first single off my album. Its called "Wonderful" and my mum has been saying since I sang it for her that it should be a praise song. Today I was in there going through it while we recorded the final version and new words came to me.

I haven't been to church in nearly two months. Been dealing with some hard things. But to tell you the truth today I remembered God. He is always here for me. Always.

So much of my life wouldn't be possible if it weren't for God carrying me and carving out my path and just being here. I forget when things don't go my way and convince myself that He has let me down or abandoned me. But you know what? People let you down. God never will.

God is wonderful. And for the first time in my short career I am proud to say that I sang a song for Him and it gives me so much joy to share it with the world.

It was originally just a love song I collaborated on with Mahogany Jones and James Sakala with. But now its a really dope song that I recorded with the help of Elect Band and the inimitable Benjamin Blazer. Lol! (It has a cool ring to it.)

Watch this space for updates. I hope you will like it.! ;)

Unforgettably Yours,

M.M
