“Shekinah”



In the spirit of Deborah…She does battle in the name of the Lord

With the heart of Esther…She rescues the souls of a dying generation

In the words of Mary…She says, “Be it unto me, Lord, according to Your Word”

In the 21st Century, She blazes with Holy Hip-Hop FIRE for the glory of GOD!



Recognized as one of Holy Hip-Hop/Gospel Rap's hottest rising female emcees, Shekinah is a part of a fresh wave of Lady Souljahs boldly proclaiming the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to this present

generation.



Shekinah was born in Boston, Massachusetts, from a family of four children, in a rich heritage that reaches back to St Johns, Antiqua. Embracing poetry at the age of 13, Shekinah began to use the gift of expressing herself through rhyme, while becoming a part of a “counterculture” that was sweeping the East Coast—HIP HOP!



In 1993, while preparing to make a trip to New York, to sign a recording contract with a secular record company, Shekinah came face to face and heart to heart with the God of her youth and made a radical commitment to give her life totally to Jesus Christ.



Later moving to Delaware, Shekinah met and became very close friends with another female emcee-Kiesha Jones (aka “Lady Moses”). Out of their meeting the Lord ordained for them to join together to form a female Rap ministry called: “Virtuous Sistazz.” After a season of powerful joint ministry, the summer of 2002 brought new direction, in which Shekinah would move to the next phase of God’s plan for her ministry. She is now involved in Christian Hip Hop, as a solo artist.



Shekinah has had the privilege and opportunity to share the platform in ministry with various Christian Hip Hop artists such as: Sistah Dee; Mahagony Jones; Todd Bangz; Da Truth; BobYoung; Corey Red; R-Swift and many others. She also has recorded on various music projects such as: The Her Project "Healing and Evangalism thru Rhyme; “Rock Soul Entertainment-Volume 1-Rock of Ages”; “Think It’s A Game-by Todd Bangz”; “Bang Theory presents: Shekinah and Lady Moses”; and The 2003 Special Hip Hop Music Tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, “Let Freedom Ring” with Holy Hip Hop artist and minister, Eddie Valez. She has also released an EP entitled,

I Come Boldly and is in the process of recording her solo project entitled “Can I Be Real?”



Shekinah is the owner of SHETOGRAPHY STUDIOS and the official photographer for Bang Theory and Sound The Alarm Int. She is currently a member at Mt.Olive Kingdom Builders' Worship Center under the leadership of Bishop Robert Perry .
