The artist shared that he went through a painful period after losing both of his parents. During that time, he struggled with depression and had to find ways to shift his perspective.
“I had to learn how to flip things into praise,” Jones explained. “Instead of focusing on the pain, I started thanking God for the time I had with my parents.”
That mindset became the inspiration behind the song’s title. Living with “Praise On Go,” Jones says, means choosing gratitude even when life becomes challenging.
In addition to the new music, Jones also revealed he has entered a new partnership with IGA Digital, Tribal, and Sony, which he believes will expand both his music and ministry.
“There’s a lot more muscle behind me now,” Jones said. “It’s exciting, but it also pushes me to do more.”
While the new partnership opens doors professionally, Jones says his greatest focus right now is ministry—particularly within the home.
During the interview, he shared that God led him to step away from leading his traditional church congregation and instead focus on strengthening his own family’s spiritual foundation.
“The Lord told me to give the ministry to someone else and go home and pastor my family,” he said.
