Kym Hamilton, formerly known as Gaza Kim, is eyeing a return to the musical spotlight.

The vivacious singer recently released a sizzling-hot new single, Time Up, recorded with dancehall artiste Kalcium.

The former Gaza Empire member is known for songs such as Teenage Pregnancy, done with Vybz Kartel, and Bills, featuring Lisa Hyper. She believes Time Up will help her to reconnect with fans.

"I'm getting a lot of positive feedback about Time Up. People are telling me they love the melody and the lyrical interplay between Kalcium and me. People like these kind of songs that deal with man-and-woman-relationship issues," she said.

Good airplay

Time Up was released in August. Since then it has been enjoying rotation in a number of countries including the US, South Africa, Guyana and Trinidad.

"This song is getting heavy rotation in various parts of the world. It's getting tremendous support from DJs in many different places, and I am very grateful for this.

"From all indications, Time Up is going to be a hit," said Hamilton.

"Kalcium and I are planning to shoot a video for our song. We want to do it as early as next month because we want to go as hard as possible with the promotion."
