KC Jockey's New Single "Girl, You're Free" Takes The Number One Spot On The Urban Reggae Charts
Pop/R&B/Reggae artist KC Jockey’s latest single, “Girl, You’re Free” has taken the top spot on WXAC 91.3’s Urban – Reggae Charts for the week ending September 25th. “Girl, You’re Free” was released on August 27th, and a video for the track will be shot next month in Atlanta. KC Jockey attributes the success of the track to his unique style of combining pop, R&B, and reggae with a topic that will have meaning and relevance for a lifetime. “The music I make is timeless and significant. It’s deep, and when you have a good sound and a good message, people are drawn to it.”
He stated, “I wrote this song because there are so many people who have experienced or are experiencing domestic violence and/or abuse to give them hope. What many don’t realize is that abuse isn’t necessarily just physical – it’s mental and emotional as well. It’s a way of taking away someone’s power and invalidating their self-worth. Almost everyone knows someone who has been in an abusive relationship whether they’re aware of it or not because many people are so ashamed that they hide it from others. But for those who don’t, it touches everyone around them and it’s devastating. My personal experience with it through friends and family compelled me to express through music the fact that these situations don’t have to be permanent, and I hope this song gives people the courage they need to leave these unhealthy relationships because there’s a better life out there if they are willing to take that first step and leave.”
Continuing, he said, “We must all watch our thoughts before they become words, watch our words before they become actions, watch our actions, or they become habits, and watch our habits, for they become our destiny. Being abusive to another human being is a choice that one makes. But you can also make the choice not to abuse as well.”
In “Girl, You’re Free,” KC Jockey sings to the women of the world who have been or are currently in abusive relationships, showing them in a musical format that on the other side of a bad affair , there’s freedom, happiness, love, and self-esteem. “Girl, You’re Free” is an attention grabbing and thought provoking presentation that seems to build and grow as he delivers his message with a great pop/R&B beat with a strong reggae influence. With a captivating and strong vocal performance and motivating lyrics, KC Jockey easily accomplishes his goal of delivering a song that is not only entertaining, danceable, and likeable, but deep and thought provoking. This is a song that both men and women can relate to, and should be appreciated en masse. Some will want to play it often as a source of strength and comfort. “Girl, You’re Free” scores a perfect 10 on every level, and music lovers of all genres will want to add this track to their collection.
