As he has consistently done throughout his career, the Grammy-nominated deejay again tackles a very serious issue; but does so in a manner that makes it not just palatable to listeners who may otherwise reject such a message, but also entertaining.
Recorded on the Passion Fruit Riddim, Watch Out Fi Dem is produced by Pandemic Records & Entertainment LLC. The Passion Fruit rhythm-driven compilation also features Yahdeen Essence, Ras Kronik , and Sizzla Kalonji.
It is available on Apple Music, Amazon, Spotify, and all other music platforms worldwide.
