Alaine Celebrates God’s Goodness on New Single “Yes I”

Jamaican singer Alaine has released her latest single, “Yes I,” a faith-centered reggae track that offers expression of gratitude to God for His goodness, guidance and protection. Released on September 11, 2026, the song was produced by Seanizzle and Sasha Maya Benjamin, with Alaine Laughton credited as the songwriter.

Inspired by the spirit of Psalm 143:10, “Yes I” has the feel of a personal prayer, with Alaine reflecting on God’s faithfulness and acknowledging His presence through life’s challenges. The accompanying official music video, available on Alaine’s YouTube channel, provides a beautiful visual representation of the song’s message.

Throughout the video, Alaine appears nicely dressed in three distinct outfits across three different settings. One scene takes place on the beach, while another appears to be set in a colorful garden surrounded by bright flowers. The third setting places her aboard a boat, literally surrounded by the sea. Saxophonist Daniel Richards, known as Richie Sax, also appears alongside Alaine in some scenes.

Directed by Gavin Palmer of GavMazing Collective, with Sasha Maya Benjamin serving as Creative Director and Courtney Russell as Director of Photography, the video combines striking natural settings with Alaine’s elegant presentation. The result is a fitting visual companion to “Yes I,” capturing the song’s spirit of faith, appreciation and thanksgiving.

Anthony B Brings “Oh Jah” to Life in New Official Video

Reggae veteran Anthony B has released the official music video for “Oh Jah,” the closing track from his latest album, World of Love. The video was uploaded to Anthony B’s official YouTube channel on September 11.

Produced visually by Barkley Films, the clean video features Anthony B performing “Oh Jah” in a variety of outdoor locations, including scenes framed by Rastafari-inspired backdrops. One particularly striking sequence finds the artist performing in what appears to be an open field, while another places him in front of what appears to be a food truck.

In the food-truck scene, Anthony B is joined by two other Rastafari men, while the seller inside also joins in, dancing and vibing to the music as Anthony B delivers the song. The natural interaction adds warmth and energy to the presentation.

The video complements the message of “Oh Jah” well, bringing the song’s powerful lyrics of faith, strength and spiritual guidance to life through simple but effective imagery. It is a visually pleasing production that allows the music and its message to remain at the center.

Fans can watch the official “Oh Jah” video on Anthony B’s YouTube channel.
