Lafayette, Louisiana based singer/songwriter Yung Juko is back with another hit. Juko has an amazing voice that sounds like none other. His latest offering entitled, “Pray For Me“, is a visual in which he puts all the cards on the table. He’s defied doctors’ predictions that he would never walk, growing up walking differently due to the congenital deformation known as Spina Bifida and the ridicule that came with it. Luckily for the entertainment world and anyone who loves real music, Juko realized his talent for overcoming odds – and he has done just that.
“Pray For Me” is Juko’s bravest video to date. SS Filmz did an incredible job of capturing Yung Juko, proudly displaying his perceived “disability” to anyone viewing the video. His proud demeanor is evident in “Pray For Me”, with lyrics that include, “I can feel the hate. I can see the hate. And the sad thing is, it’s in familiar faces.” Filmed at St. John’s Cathedral, one of the most beautiful churches in the U.S., Juko belts out the song with his natural and uncanny ability.
The question remains, “Is R&B ready to embrace a ‘disabled’ singer?” It better be. Juko’s coming for the crown and we don’t see anything that could possibly stop him. His first ever video, “Trust Nobody“, garnered over 2 million views just since being released in May. His second video, “Learn From The Streets“, racked up 305,000 views in just over 2 short months. It’s a beautiful thing when the underdog wins. We are confident Yung Juko will more than win – just you wait and see!
