Integrity Music signs Kaestrings to its global Integrated Music Rights

Integrity Music is delighted to partner with Kaestrings through its Integrated Music Rights (IMR) service. Known for his heartfelt songwriting and unique blend of spiritual depth and cultural expression, Kaestrings, whose real name is Kingsley Innocent, has become a respected voice in African worship music. His sound resonates with believers across Africa and internationally, inviting listeners into meaningful encounters with God through sincere, reflective worship.

Kaestrings first gained global recognition with the widely sung anthem He Is Here (Ga Shi Nan), a powerful song that continues to inspire worship in churches and gatherings around the world. Since then, the passionate worship leader and songwriter has released a steady stream of spiritually rich songs such as ‘Haske’, ‘Love’, ‘Broken’, and ‘Nasara’. His music frequently blends Hausa and English lyrics, offering a distinctive cross-cultural worship experience that connects people across linguistic and geographic boundaries.

Integrated Music Rights (IMR) is Integrity Music’s global label services platform, created to support independent artists and songwriters around the world. IMR provides a suite of services, including global distribution, commercial partnership promotion, and song administration – all within the infrastructure and reach of Integrity Music.

Speaking about the new partnership, Kaestrings shared:

“I am immensely grateful and humbled to serve Jesus with and through Integrity Music’s Integrated Music Rights service. I look forward to partnering with them to serve the global church and the songs the Lord has placed on my heart.”

Mark Bowater, European Director of Business Development, stated:

“We’re honoured to welcome Kaestrings to the Integrity Music family. His sound carries a prophetic edge that not only reflects the heartbeat of a generation but also shifts culture. Thank you, Kingsley, for allowing us to be part of your ministry, and we look forward to serving you in this next season.”

Originally from Benue State and of the Idoma tribe, Kaestrings spent much of his life in Zaria, Kaduna State, where his musical journey began in the church. He later studied Fine Arts at university, a path that helped shape his creativity both musically and visually. Today, he serves with Koinonia Eternity Network International under Apostle Joshua Selman and remains committed to his roles as a worship leader, husband, and father. His life and work reflect a deep love for God, worship, and community.

Through this IMR partnership, Kaestrings will benefit from Integrity Music’s global infrastructure. With a growing audience across Africa and an increasing presence in the UK, Europe, the US, and beyond, this marks an exciting new chapter for Kaestrings and the expanding reach of Afrocentric worship. His first single with Integrity Music, ‘Desire (Live)’, is scheduled for release on 3rd July, setting the tone for this next season of ministry and music.
