Lady G Releases New Video For"Calling Out"On April 30th, veteran dancehall deejay Lady G launched her new YouTube channel (Official Lady G). She consequently uploaded a lot of her older videos, while also taking the opportunity to premiere the brand new visuals for "Calling Out."
"Calling Out" is the second track on her latest EP titled "Smile 2.0," which was released in October, 2019, on the Indie Rootz Records label based in Quebec, Canada.
As we've come to expect from Lady G, this record, like so many of her other songs, is a plea to the masses to simply do and be better. As a foundation artist she has never compromised her integrity for publicity, hype or buzz. Instead, she has remained steadfast in her belief that good music and hard work are the ingredients for a long and successful music career.

Pray for the new coronavirus to stop spreading.
Almighty Jah, we know that everything is in Your sovereign control. We ask that You keep this new coronavirus from continuing to spread. Give government officials the ability to safely handle people arriving from other countries. Help people decide to stay home instead of traveling or going out needlessly. Holy Spirit, remind people to wash their hands properly. And while it may be heartbreaking, comfort families as they decide to keep their distance from elderly or other high-risk family members.

If you wish, and we really wish you wouldn't, like to be removed from this list, please reply with REMOVE in subject line.
It will make us very sad if you do, and perhaps your removal will be the one the makes us decide this no longer worth doing at all, and all the information we provide will go away forever and musicians will sit home alone at night and cry because they have no one to play for because no one knows about their shows.
