Both songs are featured on her upcoming debut EP  entitled “Desert Rose” . The EP is slated to be released in August of 2020.

ABOUT SONG:

Lenses is the first single off the Debut EP; “Desert Rose”. It is a Christian Pop /HipHop and R&B style song. The title and message of the song is metaphoric for perception as well as prophetic insight for the year of 2020 being the year of vision, synonymous with eyesight, clarity, and revelation. The song lyrics detail personal experiences in everyday life and circumstances that were difficult or challenging but have greater meaning, value, and purpose than what we sometimes think or feel in the natural. And by the supernatural grace and divinity of God the Father through the savior Jesus Christ we as believers are promised life in abundance and empowered to decree and declare change, breakthrough and blessings.
