Tobi Oluseye, known as 'Canvas and The Clay' is proud to announce the release of his latest single, 'King of Zion', a heartfelt anthem of surrender and divine sovereignty. Featuring Mazino and written during a season of personal struggle, this song promises to meet listeners wherever they are and offer a profound reminder of God’s love, mercy, and reign over all.
Produced by the talented Daniel Pappoe, "King of Zion" pairs raw, emotional lyrics with powerful instrumentation, creating a transcendent worship experience. The song invites listeners to rise above their circumstances and rest in the assurance of God’s sovereignty, even when answers seem far away.
Tobi reflecting on its origins, shared:
"I wrote "King of Zion" at a really tough time in my life. In late 2023, I was working a job that made me miserable; everyone who looked close enough could see it. My hours were typically long, and I spent the little free time I had sleeping. Due to that, my health started deteriorating. One Saturday I woke up from an unplanned nap and I started humming the melody of the chorus and the words just came to me. I eventually finished off both verses with my guitarist during a session. This song is one of the songs that delivered me to perfect peace and sound mind last year. I NEEDED to see God as sovereign over my life when I was feeling disappointed and tired. I see it as God’s mercy and love towards me. While I figured out how to trace my steps, the song's words anchored my soul in the truth that God reigns supreme, and my life didn’t depend on just me. The first words of the chorus say “You gotta be King of Zion”, which is me saying, "God you really have to be God." I just want to see and hear this song do the same and more for everyone who listens to it - to see people rise higher not necessarily because they have the answers just yet, but because of God.”
Canvas and The Clay believes that "King of Zion" will resonate deeply with audiences, encouraging them to place their trust in a loving King who meets them where they are.
