Hezron
Jamaican vocalist, songwriter and producer, Hezron, has released his latest single ‘Natural Woman’ to celebrate women on International Women’s Day.
International Women’s Day was observed on Friday, March 8, under the global theme, “Invest in women: Accelerate progress”.
This collective day has been recognised since 1911. On the day, women unite their voices for recognition of gender parity and in celebration of the achievements of women.
The song, currently available on all digital music platforms, is a reggae groove which is targeted to hit all reggae music lovers across the globe.
Hezron, who was recently named Kwame Bonsu by the Asantehene during his visit to Manhyia Palace, said the song was inspired by the instinctive nurturing and resilience possessed by the strong women in his life, including his wife and mother, female friends and colleagues, and women all over the world, who struggle for equality in education, healthcare, and the workplace.
The singer, who traces his roots to Ghana, added that ‘Natural Woman’ is an uplifting, sensitively considered tribute to women’s remarkable traits, including their ability to give life.
Hezron also announced future collaborations with Ghanaian musicians such as Kojo Antwi, Rocky Dawuni, and Afriyie Wutah, and describes his music as “enchanting, mesmerising, soothing, yet militant and hard hitting.”
He has over the years captivated his fans with exceptional talent and powerful renditions such as: “Hello Jamaica, Treat Her Better, Live It Up, Warriors Heaven.”
Hezron was born and raised during his earlier years in the District of Moy Hall District, St. James, Jamaica, before migrating to the USA.
While in Jamaica, he developed his talent being an ardent member of his church choir. His musical gift was evident to his family and friends who facilitated its development.
He continued to expand the dexterity of his vocals by naturally transitioning into singing RnB, but was not entirely satisfied within that genre, as his calling was deeply embedded in the rich reggae music of his homeland.
He returned to Jamaica to start producing energetic and soothing renditions that continue to win the hearts of his fans home and abroad.
