(Detroit, MI) September 15, 2021– Powerhouse record label, Karew Entertainment, is presenting their newest artist, urban inspirational singer, Marc Jay. Marc Jay joins the Karew roster with label mates The Clark Sisters, Karen Clark Sheard, and Kierra Sheard. When asked about the new addition, Karew Entertainment President J. Drew Sheard II says, “I’m so excited to partner with Marc Jay on his next project. He has been a part of our family for many years, supporting us, writing songs, singing background, and more, and now it’s his time. We are so proud of him!”
Marc Jay may be new to the label, but truly not new to the Clark/Sheard dynasty. Prior to releasing his own music, Jay recounts the first time singing background for the legendary Twinkie Clark at a church in Battle Creek, MI, “I was so nervous, but afterwards she said ‘good job son’ and kept using me more! I was so excited!” After ministering with Twinkie Clark, he began singing background for Karen Clark Sheard as well as The Clark Sisters, and then finally Kierra Sheard. “Kierra is like a sister to me,” he says. He recounts when she started the choir, Bold Right Life (BRL), and he was very instrumental helping to run and grow the choir. “She used to have a youth conference and I used to organize the choirs, pick the songs, pick the leads, organize the communications, fly people in, everything. That was my job for 6 years…”
Now Marc Jay is stepping from the background into the forefront with new music. “I want anyone who listens to my music to know that they can do anything they put their minds to.” He continues, “…one of my favorite songs to perform is the song, ‘Be You’ and the title says it all. Be exactly who God created you to be because you are beautifully and wonderfully made in His image and no one can take that away from you.”
