Jumo goes Dancehall

Just when you thought that rubber waist Jumo was confined to soca, reggae and a few RnB vibes he’s up and about producing music again.

This time dancehall… We all have had cause at some time or the other to say that someone is grudge-full, envious or in layman’s terms bad-mind. That’s the exact name of the vibe that Jumo primo is dishing at this time with his new soon to be released dancehall single.  Not only has he done an audio track but he has produced a video that tells the story all too clear:

“Some people pretend to be your friend but they want to see you suffer, others wish you well to your face but there hearts tell another story and when you are progressing lord knows your best friend becomes your worst enemy”, says Primo.

While some of us will have a confrontation on various levels Jumo has put to music those experiences on a track produced by Lil J out of KKR while the video was produced by Brian Roberts of honestillusions.com in Brooklyn NY.

He is hoping that it will catch on fast and make its way into the dancehall mainstream market as it has got a grove similar to an I-octane flavor. “It’s  from my heart and my own experience  coupled  with  that of  people I’ve interacted with… a lot of people  can and will identify  with  the  storyline and the lyrical flow,” Primo  said.

At present the video is not for sale but it can be downloaded from youtube, facebook and on twitter.  Meanwhile even as this is the new focus he has not shifted from soca and will be defending his title as monarch come 2013 on both fronts (Groovy and Power soca).  As he puts it this track is just a different mood. His last release was a soulful reggae love story called ‘dying days’ and to his name he’s got 4 video as  a solo artistes . As a member of times 2 they have ten videos and countless audio singles. X2 has just completed a tour of four US states and Canada.
