After releasing her song on her YouTube channel in February of 2020, Jokia ascended to the top of the charts with her single “Yahweh”. “Yahweh” soared to reach the #1 Billboard Gospel Radio Airplay spot giving the independent artist her first #1 hit ranking.
Jokia is now introducing the never-before-released studio/CCM version of “Yahweh” and releasing it to Christian radio.
“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 unprecedented times to not give up or lose hope in your faith.
“I was in a place of giving up and God asked me who my God was and, Who am I to you?” Jokia reminisces. “I realized that I had fear and all of these expectations as my God, so this song is about deliverance and repentance, and me asking God to lead me where He wants me to go.”
Jokia is a Killeen, TX native who served in the United States Army. She is a songwriter and musician with a gentle spirit and commanding delivery. Her sound is stylish, heartfelt, and precise in a way not often heard in the era of ubiquitous autotune. She aims to deliver a sound that makes an impression on every heart that lends an ear to her message through her music.
Jokia has experienced and overcome life challenges and offers inspiration through her music. “Yahweh” is her message of accessing God’s power over fear and seizing the call of purpose. Call on Yahweh, walk and believe.
