Jay Perez is set to release his 25th-anniversary album soon and it will include a very special duet with his wife Roxy P.

It’s a Christan song titled “Let Them See You” and it’s not often the crooner records songs of praise and worship.

“It’s rare that I sing for the Lord. I pray to Him every day,” Jay said in an interview with Javier Galvan on his syndicated La Fe Cafe radio show. “Our fans are not used to that. I’m a Tejano artist, that’s what I’ve been doing the past 25 plus years, pero to come in and record something just for Him, you talk about glorified, overwhelmed with a feeling I’ve never felt before.”

The song showcases the foundation of the couple’s relationship.

“I’m blessed for the relationship we have, the husband-wife thing we have going, but to be able to record with somebody of his caliber is just a huge blessing,” Roxy said. “It’s a song that shares the foundation of our relationship, which is Jesus, and that binds us together, which is very important to us. It’s just a beautiful thing and to be able to worship in a song with my husband I think is a huge privilege.”

Roxy is a singer, songwriter and former “Tejano Country” television host. She began singing at a young age and was very involved in her local church. It was a huge influence at the beginning of her career and encouraged her to use her talent to serve the Lord.

“Every Christian song has a message and it’s how you deliver that message,” Jay said. “This song here was the one that actually stood out. I think that this song speaks for itself and when I said ‘You know what? I’m going to ask Roxy if she wants to do this song with me.’ I just have to find a way to put her in there and make this song work for us and for our fans.”

“Let Them See You” will be included on Jay’s upcoming album celebrating his over 25 years as a solo artist in the Tejano music industry. It’s scheduled to be released in April.
