After winning several music competitions in her hometown of Guyana (Guyana Talent Search, Enigma Entertainment Talent Show, ACDA Best Performer & Vocalist Competition, and Miss Guyana Teen Scholar Pageant), twenty-year-old Curtela Lewis is now eyeing the world stage.
To that end, she has shared a beautiful new reggae song called Confess, and is now getting a lot of attention beyond the borders of her Caribbean country. When asked what inspired the record, the extremely grounded singer said the following: “The inspiration comes from my life experiences and my strong connection with God. Though I’ve faced challenges, I always came out a winner. I believe that is so because I always carry faith in my Father in Heaven, and through these situations he is always showing me that he is in control over my life. I don’t have to worry about the circumstances I get into because in the end God knows who I am and my capabilities and he’ll guide me to where I need to be.”
Confess was produced by accomplished music creator Vijay Deolall, who is also the personal engineer of beloved Guyanese performer Samuel Medas. The drums were played by Josh Splash, keyboards were added by Earl Bishop, and Curtela‘s dad, Curtis Lewis, joined her on the backing vocals. The official video, which was released around the same time as the audio, was shot and edited by Johnny Photography.
Confess can be streamed and/or downloaded from iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, Tidal, and all other digital music platforms. The visuals can be viewed on Curtela Lewis‘ YouTube channel.
After entering at the very bottom and spending exactly twelve weeks on The Foundation Radio Network NY Charts, veteran Guyanese reggae artist Winston Irie has finally pierced through and is now in the top 10. To be exact, as of this writing his song Orthodoxy is sitting in the #9 spot.
Irie, who is a committed Ethiopian Orthodox, said that he was inspired to write Orthodoxy after learning the true history of Ethiopia and expanding his knowledge about Emperor Haile Selassie, whom he refers to as the defender of the faith. His passion and awareness of the African nation, its culture, and religion can be heard and felt on the track.
Orthodoxy was produced by Derrick Barnett (of The Statement Band) and Bernard Joseph (of 4/20 Records and Selective Security Band). It is the lead single from Winston Irie‘s upcoming album, a project he is presently working on with the aforementioned Selective Security Band. While his fans await the LP, Irie would like them to know that all his songs, including Orthodoxy, are authentic, conscious, roots-reggae music.
