Nesbeth black & white For the past few years recording artiste Nesbeth has lived a life filled with physical and spiritual trials and triumphs, but through it all, what has become evident is the strength of his mental resolve and a noticeable growth in his music.

Nowhere, is that better showcased than in his latest offering titled ‘Remove My Enemy,‘ the first single from his upcoming album A.M.E.N. The song alludes to Nesbeth asking the Almighty to eliminate the foes from his life but in an ironic twist, he notices the sudden disappearance of many of his close relatives and friends.

“I ask God to remove my enemies and close friends start to fall. Anuh every family a relative can’t trust nobody at all. Some of the worst fight weh me ever get a from the same people who benefit, from every hard work, every sweat.” – excerpt from Nesbeth’s ‘Remove My Enemy‘

Radio rotation on the Sweet Music produced single is expected to commence this week, as the Rastafarian singer continues work on the completion of the album.

Produced on the Entertainment Soul recording imprint, ‘A.M.E.N,’ the album, though still without an official release date is slated for the last quarter of 2018.
