Haile Celestial, formerly 5 Star Celestial, ushers in 2025 with the transformative single Walking Parable, a powerful collaboration with Grammy-winning reggae artist Kabaka Pyramid. Produced by the Iotosh, this anthem blends profound lyricism with innovative production, embodying an ancient spirit while carrying its message boldly into the future.
The single, years in the making, symbolizes Haile Celestial’s evolution as an artist and individual. “The transition from 5 Star Celestial to Haile Celestial represents an expansion of consciousness into different dimensions, and the music reflects that,” explains Haile. Drawing parallels to Emperor Haile Selassie I’s coronation, he adds, “This track embodies my identity—a walking, talking parable.”
Kabaka Pyramid shares a similar sentiment: “It’s a joy to feature on a song with an artist whose journey I can deeply relate to. The subject resonates because I too feel like a Walking Parable, unbound by hype or predefined definitions. This song represents creating our own meanings, transcending dogma, and becoming the Walking Parable in every sense.”
Walking Parable is more than a song; it’s an anthem for growth, self-awareness, and stepping boldly into the future. Haile Celestial and Kabaka Pyramid deliver a message that inspires reflection and action as they set the tone for a transformative year ahead.
