Lady Saw Quits Dancehall For Jesus

Marion Hall aka Lady Saw

Hallelujah!!!, information reaching the El Levite’s Blog has it that Marion Hall, stagenamed Lady Saw, a Jamaican female deejay and dancehall music artist who is also known for her raunchy and sex arousing stage performances have finally answered the to the call of salvation. The Grammy Award-winning artist who had recorded vulgar and dirty songs like "Stab up De Meat""Hardcore" and “Condom"  and had also worked with other dancehall artists like Bennie Man, Luciano, Dennis Brown, Beres Hammond and more, made this announcement on Instagram at approximately 3:50 pm Monday December 14, 2015, after attending the funeral of dancehall singjay J Capri at the University Chapel earlier.

The Christian baptism took place at Emmanuel Apostolic Church, Slipe, Kingston, Jamaica and was performed by Bishop Everton Thomas on Monday, December 14, 2015 at about 8:00 PM also witnessed by family and friends.

The deejay related that her calling from God got even stronger once she sat in the chapel at the University of the West Indies for the funeral service. Her words below:

“I got a chance to hug and give my condolences to her parents and family and I got really emotional when they pushed her casket up to the altar I just could not help thinking that could have been me and right there I decided I want to give my life to Christ. The question kept coming up what do I do? When I heard Cherine Anderson, Alaine and Romain Virgo sing I could feel God’s presence and I knew this is where I belong.”

“I did not want to see them put her in the grave so after the church service I came home. It’s like God was talking to me and saying something is wrong cause I am just cussing out my family then I realised that God was in my house and I started to preach and get into spirit. God started giving me the answers to the questions I was asking. Like when I said how am I going to do this? He told me ‘you have people’. He told me to apologise to my family because it was the stress that comes from being responsible for my family that caused me to cuss them out. He told me to form a strong family unit, find a church, become Evangelist Hall and get the family unit into the church. I have used part of my life to serve the devil — all those things on stage. The rest of my life belongs to Christ and I am ready to work,” she further revealed.

“It all was leading up to this moment. When I look back on the fact that I said I was gonna do a raw album. I started to write the lyrics, got the ‘riddims’ and all now I can’t go and voice those tracks. I keep saying to myself how you doing a gospel album and it’s like you are going back to that kind of thing...Well it’s a wrap... not going back.”

Lady Saw got emotional as she described what happened after she got home after the funeral.

Following her interview with the Jamaica Star, Marion Hall, posted pictures and videos of her baptism.

When asked about announcements of a similar nature made in the past in which she had promised to devote her life to God, Hall said this time was different. Her words:

"The Holy Ghost and everything was right there walking through. This was a powerful one. It's not like the other ones. They were powerful too, but this time was different. I had pastors who had talked to me before, who were ministering to me that God wake them up in London 2 o'clock in the morning to tell them that I'm gonna be an evangelist."

Hall has since announced that she intends to cancel upcoming dancehall appearances in furtherance of her pursuit to spirituality.

In the meantime, Bishop Thomas and his wife Jillian have indicated that they are willing to support and help the newly converted deejay in any way they can.

"She had visited three years ago and I told her the Lord has plans for her life,” Bishop Thomas said. “I was on my way home when I got the call and no matter what I was doing, I would have made time for it.”

Following the announcement of the salvation of Lady Saw, the Gospel Reggae Community has welcomed the move with lots of celebration as one of them King Stitchie a deejay and dancehall artist turned evangelist on his facebook post on Wednesday December 16, 2015 has this to say:
