Jah9 celebrates her earthstrong by releasing the official video for ‘Gratitude’ and making the single free for download
 
A word from Jah9:
May 23rd is generally celebrated as Labour Day in Jamaica. We have a tradition of working together on this day in the community and beautification projects. Being born on a public holiday dedicated to selfless service means every year I celebrated my life with my service.  
The song ‘Gratitude’ has always been one of my favorite affirmations. Though the ‘New Name’ album was released 3 yeas ago that affirmation is forever relevant.

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.
