Steve Knight Now Available For Bookings!

Posted on April 4, 2025 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

Since the release of his latest album, “Steve Knight Returns,” which was published on streaming platforms at the beginning of February, 2025, reggae legend Steve Knight has been reconnecting with music colleagues from as far back as the late 1980s. Everyone is excited that the singer has indeed returned to reclaim his position as the “ladies’ man,” a nickname he received after sharing a song with that title early in his career.

Extremely pleased with the reception the record is getting, Steve is now preparing to head out on the road to perform the songs live in front of an audience. He is thrilled to sing for his longtime fans and possibly make some new ones. To that end, he and his team are announcing his availability for bookings for the remainder of 2025 and going into 2026. Now based in Canada, Knight is able to travel to any country on any of the seven continents in the world.

Steve Knight‘s extensive catalogue includes hits like “Robber Man,” “Tell Them Already,” “Love Me Entertainment,” “The Girl Is Mine,” done with Papa Beeto, and “If You Want Me,” and that is just to name a few.

Former Gaza Empire Member Avalanche Now A Minister Of The Gospel

Posted on April 4, 2025 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

After spending approximately 9 years as a member of Vybz Kartel‘s Gaza Empire, where he remembers being told not to mention God in his songs, running from gunshots during a shootout, and having other negative and distasteful experiences, recording artist Avalanche stayed faithful to the crew even while Kartel was in jail.

By the time Kartel was arrested in 2011, Avalanche—whose real name is Paul Clarke—had migrated to the United States. It was while living there and still an active participant in the Gaza Empire that he got a message from God instructing him to change his life. Having always been a believer, despite how he was living, that instruction led to him almost immediately getting baptized and doing a complete 180 with his life.

Fast-forward to 2025, and Prophet Paul, the moniker he now uses, is ready to unleash his first single as a gospel-dancehall artist. The song, titled “Open Door,” will be available on streaming platforms in a matter of days, but Paul and his team are sending exclusive copies to members of the media (and DJs) now.

It should be noted that although Avalanche now goes by Prophet Paul and he’s no longer involved in secular music, he is still lyrically gifted and even more fiery than he was before.
