Ms. Destiny/6ixGal, is making waves in the reggae scene with her latest hit, “I Am the One.” The Canadian-born singer, songwriter, and producer has sparked considerable buzz since the single’s release, quickly earning widespread acclaim and garnering attention from both fans and industry insiders. A fresh and vibrant voice in reggae music, 6ixGal has already carved out a distinct niche, and “I Am the One” is just the latest testament to her undeniable talent.
The track is a smart and soulful take on YG Marley’s popular “Praise Jah in the Moonlight” riddim, and it has resonated deeply with listeners. In just two months, “I Am the One” has amassed over 250,000 views on YouTube alone, an impressive milestone for the burgeoning artist. Speaking about her rapid rise, an enthusiastic 6ixGal shared, “I’m honestly so happy with the response. I received over 150,000 views in the first month, and now it’s at 250,000 views—it’s unreal!”
The inspiration for “I Am the One” came from a deeply personal place. 6ixGal first discovered YG Marley’s “Praise Jah in the Moonlight” after watching a social media clip in which his mother, Lauryn Hill, brought him on stage in 2023. Instantly captivated, she shared the video on her TikTok, where it garnered 25,000 views in a single day. “I was like, I need to remake this song,” she recalled. “I listened to it daily—it was helping me through a breakup with someone very dear to me. I sat with it for months.”
With YG Marley’s track amassing over a billion views, 6ixGal felt the timing was perfect to release her own take on the riddim. The result is a track that reflects both the soulful resonance of the original and her personal journey, delivering a powerful message that’s already captured the hearts of fans across the globe.
Since its release, “I Am the One” has been gaining traction worldwide, with DJs from different corners of the globe adding it to their playlists. From DJ Carrie Mullings on Vibe 105 in Canada to DJ Chris on Jamaica’s Irie FM, and even DJ Nite Nurse in Germany, the track has found a home in reggae-loving communities far and wide.
