Image
Portmore Empire general Vybz Kartel has signed a new talent to his label, a teenaged singing sensation who hails from Christian Pen and who he has re-christened Gaza Kim.
“The girl is talented and a good singer and we believe that she has a great future in dancehall. We chose this song, Teenage Pregnancy, because it reflects a common social problem we have in Jamaica with young teenage girls becoming pregnant early and the ramifications for the family unit when it happens. So this song addresses that situation and we have printed several thousand posters advocating safe sex, and with slogans like ‘Stay in School’ and ‘Wait for the Right Time’ trying to get young people to make informed decisions about sexual activity,” he told one876entertainment.com.
Gaza Kim Interview
Gaza Kim Dancehall.Mobi feature interview with Gaza Kim – just yesterday, we had the chance to fire a few quick questions at the Portmore Empire’s young rising female star, Gaza Kim. Her responses to our questions are detailed below.
1) Who is Gaza Kim?
Kim Hamilton … a nice, intelligent, outgoing person who graduated from Ascot High School a couple years ago.
2) It’s said that Kartel ‘discovered’ you. How did that happen?
I was visiting all the studios regularly, but nothing was happening for me. So I gave Vybz Kartel’s girlfriend “Shortie” my CD to give him. She gave it to him, and he loved my voice and took me to the studio almost immediately to record a song. That first song hasn’t been released yet, but the second one was “Teenage Pregnancy” which was released in July of this year.
3) How did you get the name?
I used to call myself Lady Bling, but Vybz Kartel simply added the “Gaza” brand to my first name and now I am Gaza Kim.
4) In terms of role models and people in your industry that you admire … who are they and why?
Tanya Stephens … because she talks the truth; Lady Saw and of course Vybz Kartel.
5) We heard “Teenage Pregnancy”, “Amen” and a couple other songs of yours … what else have you been up to?
Mostly recording other new songs that will be on the road soon.
6) Do you write your own song lyrics?
I have songs that I’ve written, but all my recorded songs were written by Vybz Kartel.
7) What’s a typical day like for you nowadays?
Mostly spending time in the studios … and parties and dances when the come.
8 ) What’s the most important lesson that you’ve learned so far with regard to Jamaica’s music industry?
Write good songs that people can and will want to sing along to.
9) How have your old friends and classmates reacted to your new found success and growing popularity?
Everybody’s been happy for me … thankfully no bad-mind or anything like that yet. Up to this morning an old friend came by my house just to say hi and she was so happy for me.
10) How has the Internet helped or not helped your career? Do you use it at all?
I don’t use it much now, but I understand its reach and power.
11) Who currently manages you?
Vybz Kartel manages me.
12) What are some of your goals for the next year or so?
By next year this time, I hope to be well-established like fellow Portmore Empire artistes Jah Vinchi and Blak Ryno. Hopefully I’ll have quite a few hit songs by then.
13) Where do you see yourself in the next 3 to 5 years
With hit songs that are heading towards Michael Jackson’s level.
Amen

In "Amen" by Gaza Kim, the singer is calling on God to rid her of her ex-boyfriend who has been causing her trouble. She recounts the ways in which he mistreated her - he wanted to follow her everywhere, treated her like a baby, and hit her when he didn't get his way. She's had enough of him and is ready to move on to someone new. She believes that God has sent a new man into her life, and she's eager to welcome him into her bed. Throughout the song, the singer expresses her faith in God and how prayer has helped her overcome her problems.
The first verse sets up the premise of the song, with the singer calling on Jesus to help her get rid of her ex-boyfriend. The chorus expresses the singer's gratitude for being able to move on to someone new and getting her ex out of her life. The second verse talks about how the singer has moved on and is now seeing other men who treat her better. She's happy to be moving on and is grateful for the blessings that God has brought into her life. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the singer's joy at having moved on from her ex-boyfriend and finding someone new to be with.
Overall, "Amen" is a powerful anthem about overcoming adversity through prayer and faith in God. The singer has endured mistreatment from her ex-boyfriend but has been able to move on thanks to her belief in a higher power. The song is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of faith.
