Tattwu Design goes viral with ‘Thank God’

Tattwu Design goes viral with ‘Thank God’

Dancehall artiste Tattwu Design has high hopes for his latest single, Thank God, a track celebrating divine protection, faith and success.

The song was originally recorded in 2022, however, in recent months there has been a surge in internet users choosing the audio for trending dances and lip-syncing to boost engagement and emotion on the music discovery platform TikTok.

“Then as the 2026 new year started, I saw a lady using the sound on TikTok with the caption “2026 the wicked dem see mi alive”, then the song started going viral from there,” Tattwu Design said.

He shared that he had stopped promoting the song in the past because other artistes had released similar-themed songs and “because whenever I write music I don’t want to sound like other artistes”.

Tattwu Design said he was inspired to write the song when he had a eureka moment during his frequent freestyling sessions while live-streaming on TikTok in 2022.

“I started playing this riddim, and it’s like the beat kept saying ‘thank God thank God the wicked dem see mi alive…’ and the person who I went live with recommended that I record it, and I did it right there and then,” Tattwu recalled.

Tattwu said the song has generated a lot of support from industry insiders such as Gary Freestyle, Gary G, Hottaball, Digital Chris, and DJ Nico, as well as mixtape experts like DJ Treasure and DJ Kenny.

He is pleased that his ‘Thank You God‘ song has inspired similar songs in the marketplace featuring themes of faith, redemption, and spiritual struggle.

“When I recorded it, no other dancehall artiste wasn’t thanking God in songs, it was always about obeah and chapping.. but how I look back on it now, I believe that it’s a good thing for every artiste to be thanking God at the same time, me alone can’t do it, the world needs God,” he said.

Tattwu Design is known for high-energy tracks and singles like “Ex Never Know” (2020), “Plan Up” (2019), and “Video Strength“, the latter often advertised as one of the shortest reggae/dancehall songs ever. His music can be found on streaming platforms such as Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and SoundCloud.
