Reggae artiste Prince Levy is ecstatic at the reaction to his reggae single, ‘Save Yourself’ which speaks to the pandemic of gun violence affecting the US, the Caribbean and the world.
“The violence is everywhere…when you turn on CNN, or FOX News, you see a lot of lives destroyed by violence. There are too many places where people die for almost no reason daily, we must make change happen, especially in Jamaica, where a crime wave pushed by the easy availability of guns, seems to be gripping the island; people are afraid,” Prince Levy said.
The single has been fast gaining traction in Jamaica, racking up spins on IRIE, Suncity Radio, HITZ and Roots FM.
Levy has carved out a reputation stateside for his ability to create an eclectic fusion of dancehall, reggae and R & B. The artiste’s ice cube clear sound is evident on breakout tracks such as the chart-riding ‘All Night Long’ and R&B flavoured ‘Real Good’.
The talented singjay is gearing up for the release of the video for the dancehall single, ‘All Night Long’ which is co-produced by Prince Levy Music and Jay Edge. The single is now bubbling on the FIWI Choice top ten singles chart that airs on TVJ.
Last month, he released a single called “Sweet Selection”, a collaboration with Banton, a well known dancehall disc jock in Costa Rica, through online distribution channels.
“The ‘Sweet Selection’ is doing well in Spanish-speaking markets in Central and South America, like Panama, Columbia and Costa Rica,” he said.
The singjay is fine-tuning a number of tracks for the release of his new album, ‘Musical Messiah’ which will be released in January 2017.
