South African Doctor-Turned-Creative Visionary Dr. Chad Marthinussen Unveils Crown & Altar: A New Chapter in Kings x Priests

Cape Town, South Africa: September - Renowned South African doctor, entrepreneur, and health-tech innovator Dr. Chad Marthinussen has long been known for reshaping access to healthcare through groundbreaking projects like the U-Image wireless ultrasound device and digital health platforms under Innov8 Group Holdings. Today, he reveals another side of his visionary journey: the release of Crown & Altar, a deeply personal musical project under his passion initiative, Kings x Priests.

This is not just an album,it is an offering. Crown & Altar invites listeners into a sacred space where rhythm meets reflection, and where African grooves become prayers that move both the body and the soul.

A Sonic Offering of Healing and Praise

Where earlier works carried the driving energy of Afro-house and Amapiano, Crown & Altar slows down. It breathes. It lingers. Built on Afro-beats, chill-wave textures, and intimate African rhythms, the album still carries the pulse of the dancefloor, but with a gentler power: an energy that uplifts, heals, and praises.

The title itself is a story:

• The crown speaks of weight, triumph, and responsibility.
• The altar evokes surrender, faith, and renewal.

The songs live between these two worlds: intimate confessions rising into triumphant celebration, quiet prayers swelling into grooves that command movement.

From Medicine to Music: A Unified Vision

Just as Dr. Marthinussen’s innovations in health-tech have sought to heal, empower, and uplift communities, Crown & Altar extends that mission through sound. The lead track, Born Again, sets the tone: a declaration of transformation that is as personal as it is universal. From there, the album unfolds like chapters of a journey, deeper into rhythm, story, and spirit.

A Global Movement

With over 27,000 monthly listeners worldwide, Kings x Priests has grown beyond music to become a movement — a soundscape of intimacy and praise, rooted in Africa yet resonating across the globe.

Crown & Altar is available now on all major streaming platforms worldwide.
