. . . where ancient Scripture meets modern sound in the most unexpected and exciting ways.

Hi. I’m Shane Smith, and since 2024, I’ve been on a mission to make the Word of God accessible, enjoyable, and relevant to every person, regardless of their musical taste or cultural background. My passion is simple: to bring the Psalms—some of the most beautiful, powerful, and timeless writings ever penned—to life through music that speaks to today’s world.

Why so many Different Genres?

The Psalms were originally written as songs, meant to be sung, celebrated, and lived out. But too often, we limit worship music to one or two styles, leaving countless people unable to connect with Scripture through sound. That’s why I create music in several distinct genres:

– Afrobeats – Infectious rhythms and celebratory energy that make you move
– Arabic – Middle Eastern melodies that honor the region where these words were born
– Country – Storytelling at its finest, with heartfelt sincerity
– Modern Worship – Contemporary sounds inspired by today’s worship leaders
– Rap/Hip Hop – Hard-hitting bars and flows that deliver Scripture with precision and power
– Rock – Raw energy and passionate declarations of faith

Each genre represents a different culture, a different generation, a different way of experiencing God. And every track stays faithful to the biblical text, ensuring that what you’re hearing isn’t just inspired by Scripture—it is Scripture, adapted with care and respect.

The Albums

Projects like Psalms I (Modern Style), Psalms I (Rap Style), and Afrobeats, Arabic, Country, and Rock showcase this vision in action. Each album features lyrical adaptations of ten powerful Psalms, maintaining the profound meaning of the Amplified Bible while smoothing the flow for musical delivery.

Whether you’re looking for contemplative worship, triumphant celebration, or something that makes you want to dance, you’ll find it here.

My Mission

I believe the Bible should be fun, accessible, and alive. Music has the power to break down barriers—cultural, generational, and linguistic—and when we combine that power with the timeless truth of God’s Word, something extraordinary happens. People connect. Hearts are moved. Lives are changed.

That’s why I do what I do. Not just to make music, but to make people happy while pointing them to Jesus. To show that worship doesn’t have one sound—it has every sound. And the Psalms, written thousands of years ago as songs, are still meant to be performed, celebrated, and experienced today.

Join the Journey

Explore the albums, discover your genre, and experience the Psalms like never before. Whether you’re here for the infectious grooves of Afrobeats, the lyrical precision of hip-hop, or the heartfelt storytelling of country, there’s a sound waiting for you.

Ancient Words. Modern Sound. Every Genre.
