Following the momentum of his 2025 breakout single “FLEX,” the track signals a shift from celebration to grounding.
“Praise the Lord” explores gratitude, personal growth, and perspective, capturing a quiet confidence that resonates beyond fleeting trends, Jesse Flames explained.
Magnito’s contribution brings sharp lyricism and cultural authenticity, reinforcing the record’s themes of resilience, faith, and self-reflection.
The official music video is scheduled for release on 10 January 2026, promising visual storytelling that complements the song’s reflective tone.
Born in the United States, raised in Festac, Lagos, and currently based in London, Jesse Flames blends Afrobeats, hip hop, and melodic soul to create music rooted in lived experience rather than trend-chasing.
The track’s December 2025 release coincided with Detty December celebrations, where it became a soundtrack for both reflection and festivity.
With over six million streams, headline performances at O2 Brixton Academy and OVO Arena Wembley, and coverage from The Guardian and Business Post Nigeria, Jesse Flames has steadily built a reputation for intentional artistry.
He is also preparing collaborations with Ice Prince, M.I Abaga, and Smurlee later in 2026.
