KING'S CHAMBER MUSIC GROUP presents . . . "SHAMMAH"
Shammah is a Christian rap artist who was born in Guyana, South America, and migrated to New York City in 1981. He began to minister for the Lord Jesus Christ, shortly after being saved in 1997, and then completed his first album The Matchsticks Story" in 2007. With a heart for the streets and for the youth of this generation, Shammah has ministered musically in Alabama, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, New Jersey, and also at many church concerts and outreaches around the New York City area. His songs are growing in influence on radio stations in the U.S., Canada, and also overseas including Sweden, UK and parts of the Caribbean. As a part of this, the Lord has also used him to bless places such as Riker's Island Prison and Teen Challenge with his live performances. Youth ministries and churches have been strengthened and encouraged through the rapping and preaching of this artist, as he shared God's word in both testimony and song.
He says, "God saved me from hell at the age of twenty... a very tender time for a young man to give up partying, chasing girls, porn, and the love of this world. He delivered me from deep involvement in the worship of false gods, due to the occult that I grew up in, through my ancestry. I was very impressed and in love with the streets and the things it seemed to offer, but Jesus saved me before I went very deep. I was never a gangster or a drug dealer; God simply allowed me to grow up in the urban community to learn it's language (knowing that He would save me and use me to communicate His glorious gospel to it). I've seen so many friends and acquaintances (from my life in the world) suffer, and even die untimely deaths. Some were stabbed, some died by gunshot, while many suffered from depression leading to drug use, and even suicide. I was supposed to die by abortion in 1977, but my mother told the devil 'No!, this is my only son'. This is why I love to address things like suicide, abortion, drug use and gang violence in my music. All of these are the effects of sin and I believe that only Jesus Christ's death and resurrection is the solution to sin. My mission is to share with the world that through Him we can have eternal life."
Shammah is an evangelist and the name is Hebrew, meaning "God is with Him" (taken from 2 Samuel 23:11). With God's help he leads the evangelistic music ministry "King's Chamber Music Group", which is also home to worshipper and artist Corisse Vialva. Having completed his second album titled "Kingdom Come", he seeks to glorify God and truly impact this culture for Jesus Christ.
