Ras Ceylon x Sizzla x Young Shanty "Prayerz Up" (Official Video)

What a microphone is to an emcee, and wings are to a bird, prayer is to the soul. The divine energy of prayer is a sacred art and vessel designed to communicate with The Most High and experience a feeling of godly presence. Many believe daily prayer can bless themselves and others, bringing more peace into life while simultaneously receiving a better understanding of what God's plan is for them. Regardless if you are a believer in prayer, it is best not to question its power, as it would be foolish to unintentionally block your blessings.

Today, July 23rd, 2024, marks the 132nd anniversary of the birth of Emperor Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia, who is the inspiration for Rastafari, an Afrocentric spiritual and cultural movement that developed in Jamaica during the 1930s, contributing to the birth of Reggae music (which translates to "King's Music"), greatly brought to prominence by Bob Marley and continues to be a deeply sacred phenomenon rooted in its tradition of social commentary, African ancestry, ancient practices, and different forms of prayer.

"Prayerz Up" single and music video, strategically released on this day to commemorate the Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah himself, Haile Selassie I, is a collaboration between California’s Oakland-based revolutionary Hip Hop artist Ras Ceylon and his brethren, Reggae/ Dancehall legend Sizzla Kalonji, and Chalice Row Records labelmate Young Shanty.
