JAMIE KNIGHT / I DUNNO

I sang before I spoke! I thought my parents made this up until my mom played me the tape. I always considered myself an introvert until it was time to sing, Therefore, I could not imagine that the Lord was calling me to ministry; calling me to talk! Ministers were charismatic personalities who loved talking to people and I was the quiet type who loved sneaking away to my own little corner with my pen and notepad to create and pray-I still am.  When I got signed with famed rap star, JayZ before my high school graduation, I was convinced that I had walked into God’s purpose for my life. Because I had established  a strong relationship the Lord early, however, I soon discovered that I was being prepared for a purpose I never saw for myself. After enrolling in Seminary among other things, I started exploring the idea of recording a gospel album. This goal was soon accomplished and the storms of life began to rage! My first gospel album, entitled “Lift Him Up” was intended to uplift and encourage others, while my new recordings have taught me the importance of encouraging myself. . My prayer is always that my music  be a blessing; possibly serving as an introduction to Christ for those who do not know him and perhaps a tool to rejuvenate the relationship of those who already know him. This journey hasn’t been easy; my music chronicles each twist and turn…stay with me for the rest of the ride, I have a feeling it’s gonna be amazing!!
