Anavah Love Jones set to drop debut album

Anavah Love Jones set to drop debut album

A new gospel group, Anavah Love Jones, which comprises the siblings, Anavah and Hephzibah, is set to drop their debut album, titled God a Me Boss.

The musicians, whose given names are Stephen and Tiffany Blake, are the offspring of co-founder and former lead singer of the internationally acclaimed Blood Fire Posse, Paul Blake, and his wife of 27 years, Dr Dorrett Blake.

According to Anavah the 12- song CD is a compilation of a fusion of several music genres.

“It’s a new kind a beat. A fusion between gospel and R&B, reggae, all genres,” Anavah told the Jamaica Observer West.

“These come with a different sound, a positive, uplifting message of hope and how to overcome every obstacle life throws at you. The music targets young people who are searching for direction, confused, abandoned, and the incarcerated. They bring good news”

Anavah graduated from the University of Technology (UTech) in 2009 with a Bachelor of Arts in Marketing and International Business.

Since then he has been ministering on the streets and inner-city communities to the youth bringing hope, healing and direction, and more recently became the overseer of the Holy Spirit Ministry International in Montego Bay, where he used to minister.

Meanwhile, his sister, Hephzibah graduated from University of the West Indies in 2013 with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology.

She’s been in part-time ministry from 2010, as Youth Leader and Worship Leader at Acts of the Holy Spirit Ministry International and at the Street Church.

Anavah related that plans to follow in his father’s footsteps did not materialise.

His father started out his musical career as a secular artiste, then went gospel, after which he became a pastor.

“Mi always wanted to do music, wanted to be a top of the line artiste. I studied artistes such as Bob Marley, Stevie Wonder, the Beatles, Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson and I wanted to be like them. I practised on my roof with nobody watching and then decided to take my father’s direction to go secular, then gospel, then turn a pastor,” he revealed.

“But everything went backwards according to my plan.”

The elder Blake told the Observer West that he believes the group is destined to do great things, “not just in terms of popularity, but in terms of bringing meaningful change to the nation and the world.”
