This single by Motherwell-based rapper Aaron Mkd is very much an international affair with French vocalist Jessica Nzau and Congolese singer Aime Nkanu joining Aaron on this bright and breezy request for Jesus' help through daily life. Set to a gentle African-tinged rhythm, the song floats between French and English-sung lyrics courtesy of Nzau and Nkanu whilst Aaron checks in and out with some skilful rapping that declare his Saviour's glory and ceaseless love and exudes infectious positivity at every turn. Whilst perhaps lacking a sense of edge musically, this is nonetheless a perfect antidote to the more lascivious hip-hop chart fodder out there in today's mainstream.
