We’ve reached the final track on the Sweet Side Riddim, and honestly… we saved the best for last. Kimi delivers a beautiful, heartfelt reminder with “Grateful”—a song rooted not in Carnival hype, but in life itself.
While the rest of the riddim celebrates positivity, freedom, and Carnival joy, “Grateful” goes deeper. Kimi sings about being thankful for life, for breath, for blessings—the things we often overlook until music brings them back into focus. It’s tender, uplifting, and wrapped in sweet, effortless vocals that feel like a warm embrace.
This is the kind of song you bookmark, save, and add to your playlist immediately. The production is superb, the message is universal, and the delivery is pure soul.
Watch this artist; his name is Shakeem "Kimi" Spencer, his vocals are silky smooth, and the ladies will love his music.
Remember his name: he is a winner, a star in the making! We said it here.
