Judith relocated to Negril to reside with her brother, who owned and operated several businesses along the northern coastal areas. She was eventually employed with Hedonism II Resort as a ‘singing entertainer’, and she entertained on the North Coast of Jamaica for approximately ten years.
In 1998, Judith was the first runner up in the Jamaica Cultural Development Commission Popular Song Competition with her first single ‘Mi Na Lef Jamaica’. She then teamed up with Lady Saw to record a song entitled “Matey”. Judith was also a back up singer for Ritchie Stephens.
She felt God calling her back to the Christian faith and she finally gave up her ‘secular’ lifestyle and singing career to be sold out to God. Judith is currently a proud member of the Overcomers Christian International.

He's all right
Ohh, What you think about Jesus
He's all right
He's all right, all right, all right
Give Me Jesus in the morning
Give Me Jesus in the evening
Every minute of the day
He's my reason for living
He's my source of survival
Every minute of the day
Give Me Jesus
Now Give Me Jesus in the morning
Give Me Jesus in the evening
Every minute of the day
Give Me Jesus
He's my reason for living
He's my source of survival
Every minute of the day
Give Me Jesus
When all my friends would say to me
Looks like hope is lost
I call the name of Jesus
In whom my future lies
When my soul is cast down
And my way looks dark
He softly comes in a whisper
"Child your future is bright"
He's my reason for living
He's my source of survival
