Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by Gabriel Teodros, host of Early on KEXP, is "Never Give Up" by Chronixx, a 2022 single on Forever Living Originals.
With his latest single, reggae artist Chronixx sends love to generations of his fellow artists in Jamaica. On social media, he writes:
Give thanks for the Rastafari vibration. The positive vibrations that make it possible for youths here in a seemingly chaotic world to sing from our souls into the soul of the world. For all the people who are struggling for peace and against systematic oppression. #nevergiveup the fight for the family. Never give up the fight for love.
This one is for all the young musicians in Jamaica… we have lost so many of our guiding lights here on the physical plane. We are hurting and longing for the word sound of universal truth. Now we have to feel their essence in our creativity and keep the flame alive in the earth. This one is for our elder musicians. You have woven the fiber of who we are… your honor is our honor. We love you. You are our heroes. #nevergiveup
