Internationally renowned Jamaican artist, Konshens, is back with “Shek It” – a certified Dancehall hit produced by Costa Rica’s super producer BomboCat.
The new single mixes Afro-Latin music with Konshens’s catchy melodies and demeanour. The movie-style directed music video by Rizzy brings suspense but at the same time a good dance and twist to the plot.
Konshens addresses his hardcore dancehall delivery on the new release saying, “This marks the return of Dancehall to its glory days when it was all about fun and the dance floor,” adding on a special message to his fans in Africa, “Thank you all for showing so much love to me, my genre Dancehall, and Jamaican culture as a whole. The love is mutual, and I hope you enjoy this one! Deep gratitude!”
This is evident in the inspiration of this track, which says, “I got the beat while I was in Kenya a year ago. I set up my mobile studio and recorded it right in the middle of a hotel room during an after-party. With all the buzz around me, I absorbed all that energy and channelled it into the track.”
“Shek It” which follows the success of Konshens’s recent release “Look Good” is the lead track off Konshens’s next studio project that’s work in progress and slated for release in the late third quarter of 2024.
The Jamaican-born star has grown a diverse and dedicated fanbase for almost two decades. His international smash hits “Bruk Off Yuh Back”, “Turn Me On” and “Gal a Bubble”, among others, are absolute essentials of the genre that have helped drive his goal of elevating Dancehall and Jamaican music to a truly global level and acceptance worldwide.
