Accomplished Singer/songwriter, JOKIA (Jokia Music/Darkchild Gospel), celebrates reaching #1 on Billboard’s National Gospel Airplay Chart with the celebrated and cross-genre single, “Yahweh.” “Yahweh” marks Jokia’s first #1 single as an independent artist on her own label, Jokia Music, exclusively distributed by Darkchild Gospel. “Yahweh” is lifted from her forthcoming EP due second quarter 2021.
Promoted at gospel radio by Jerome Hunt, founder of By Any Means Necessary, the song “Yahweh” (meaning: He Brings into Existence Whatever Exists) is a catchy mid-tempo song that effortlessly reels the listener in, giving them an instant faith boost. “Yahweh” serves as a reminder to all during these unpresented times to not give up or lose hope in your faith. Jokia’s next single, “Let Him In” will be available Summer 2021.
“Don’t give up on what God called you to do, even if it doesn’t go the way you planned. His plans are greater than ours,” shares Jokia.
Killeen, Texas’ native Jokia (often stylized JOKIA) sound is stylish, heartfelt, and precise in a way not often heard in the era of ubiquitous autotune. Prior to the digital release of “Yahweh”, Jokia offered a soul-stirring performance of the song at Marquis Boone’s 2015 Discovered conference that landed her a demo recording deal. Since then, and with much dedication to her craft and devotion to God, Jokia’s ministry continues to gain visibility, amazing opportunities and platforms to minister through music.
Founder of Darkchild Gospel, Fred “Uncle Freddie” Jerkins, shares: “When I first heard “Yahweh” I knew that it had the potential to be the #1 song in the country and didn’t hesitate for DarkChild Gospel to join forces with Jokia Music to make this song available to the world.”
CEO of By Any Means Necessary, Jerome Hunt, shares, “Jokia is an amazing artist/person with an amazing song! It’s my passion at By Any Means Necessary to work with new independent artists to help them achieve what God has placed in them. I’m extremely excited for her!”

Singer/songwriter Tori Harper and producer/programmer Neon Feather teamed up for the first time to write and record the encouraging “Be Like You” that is available now at digital and streaming outlets globally through The Fuel Music. Premiering on CCM Magazine, the song also goes for Hot AC / CHR radio adds beginning May 4.
Written out of areas in their own lives where they see God working, Harper and Neon Feather’s “Be Like You” carries a relevant message that encourages themselves and listeners to not get caught up in the moment and the unrest seen all over social media and in culture today.
“I first had the idea for this song because of all the times I’ve let hurtful words come out without thinking first, and I wanted to remind myself what a kingdom response would look like!” exclaims Harper. “As a Christian, I know that self-control is a fruit of the spirit. Every day I’m trying to become more like Jesus; to be more patient and kind.”
“I was so excited to get to bring this idea to my friend Neon Feather, and collaborate on this concept together,” continues Harper. “I’ve always loved his music and was so thrilled that it worked out!”
“This song came together so naturally and felt like a joy to create,” says Neon Feather (aka Ben Thompson). ”I think it flowed out of us because we had been fans of each other for years, so when we finally connected to write, we were already on the same wavelength.”
“I literally have such a hard time envisioning my words before I say them,” he adds. “I truly think and process out loud, which gets me in trouble and has hurt people close to me. So I’ve put this song on loop in my head to take my own advice and be more like my ultimate role model who definitely chose His words more carefully.”
