Rhiya Luna Shows She’s Better On “Indefinite”

Posted on by swadedavillain

Rhiya Luna continues to make good music, and keep her name buzzing around the world. She didn’t allow Covid 19 to stop her work ethic in 2020 as she released a few singles, but 2021 will find her going as hard as ever. She starts it off in a good way with the new single, “Indefinite“.

Produced by VoxGad Music and released through Nuh Response Production, Rhiya Luna looks to help a guy out of his current situation. While he has his lady, Rhiya did some observing and realized that his lady has been disloyal to him. She hits him with the truth, and at the same time is convincing him to make the move with her as she’s the better woman for him. Rhiya gets a lil sneaky on this one, and she still delivers greatly on the track over VoxGad’s smooth production. Rhiya has faced some difficulties as an US based artist during the pandemic, but her creativity has not slowed down once. Get ready for more from her.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Claudelle Clarke – I Saw The Light (1979)

Posted on by swadedavillain

With 2020 being a year filled with crazy events, it’s only right we start our first Oldies Sunday of 2021 on a Gospel note. Today’s selection comes from Gospel Music Icon Claudelle Clarke with the track, “I Saw The Light“.

Produced/Arranged by Alvin Ranglin and released through GG’s Records in 1979, this was a cover of “The King Of Country Music” Hank Williams Sr.’s 1948 single. The song speaks of a backslider who looks back at the many things they have done before they see the light of God, and expresses how they feel after being saved. Before Claudelle Clarke’s version, “I Saw The Light” was already a Country Gospel standard, and was covered by the likes of Country Music Pioneer Ernest Tubb, Music Icon Pat Boone, Country Music Icon Willie Nelson, and many others. Claudelle Clarke’s version stood the test of time for being one of the best Jamaican Gospel songs ever made, and is still touching hearts to this day. The single was featured on Clarke’s 1979 album, “God Is A Mountain“.
