Provident Entertainment has signed Christian hip-hop artist Skema Boy, with the rapper marking the news by releasing a new single called “Worthy”. It is his first release with the label and is available now on streaming platforms.
Skema Boy has been building an audience through independent releases including “God’s Army”, “Wristwatch” and “Blimp”. He has hundreds of thousands of monthly listeners and tens of millions of streams, and earlier this year he signed with Rixon Entertainment Group for artist management.
His new track, “Worthy”, was written by Skema Boy alongside Wes Writer and Quinten Coblentz. It also samples Michael W. Smith’s worship song “Agnus Dei”, bringing a familiar worship melody into a Christian hip-hop track. Production was handled by WEARETHEGOOD, Wes Writer and Quinten Coblentz.
Provident Entertainment president Holly Zabka said the label was impressed by the way Skema Boy connects with his audience and brings lyrics about Jesus into hip-hop and rap. She also pointed to his personal story as a reason the company wanted to work with him.
Born Nathanael Volf, Skema Boy grew up in Guilford, Connecticut, and now lives in Maui, Hawaii. He spent years making secular music while working a full-time job, but says his direction changed in 2021 after an encounter with the Holy Spirit led him to give his music a new purpose.
He decided to pursue music full-time in October 2025, leaving his job and trusting that things would work out, where just days later, Brandon Lake contacted him about collaborating, and heir song “No Idols” led to Skema Boy joining Lake's King of Hearts fall tour.
Now with Provident Entertainment behind him, “Worthy” marks another step forward for an artist who wants to use hip-hop to share his faith with a much wider audience.
You can find Skema Boy's new single, “Worthy”, on Apple Music, and follow him through his official Linktree.
