With an edgy UK hip-hop sound, Jelz aka Jeremy Zulu is a rapper from South East London inspired by Lecrae, Tinie Tempah, Ryan Leslie and Kanye West. Jelz uses his talent on the mic to bring God's news to the world. This EP is based on Proverbs 18:21 and encourages the listener to think about the power of words and how they can be used to make a positive or negative impact in people's lives. Jelz is backed by Kieran Dwain Guy (drums) and Joshua Ankrah (guitar) while Christine Asamoah brings her powerful vocals to the lead "Fire Inside" as Jelz takes us on a frank tour through his personal life and faith journey as God's fire now burns inside. "Human Being" with Saint Charlés reminds us "we've only got one life, make sure you live it right" while the soaring, live-sounding final track "Nothing Is Impossible" emphasizes that with God,- "anything is possible." Watch out for Jelz Music coming to a venue near you soon.
