Richie Spice remembers Mama

REGGAE artiste Richie Spice has released a track dedicated to his late mother aptly titled Mama.

The track — produced by Craig Thelwell on UTH Music — was done for Mother’s Day.

Richie Spice said the track is also timely as his mother — Violet Bonner — died in May last year.

“Mother Bonner influence I in many ways. She always tried to do the right thing along the cycle of life. She went the extra mile, provided for us, showing me survival of life’s road, and this month actually marks one year since her passing. Her memories still live on, she was my best friend. For this Mother’s Day, I wrote a song for her and to all the unforgettable mothers whose love can never be replaced,” said Richie Spice.

Violet Bonner is also mother to entertainers Spanner Banner, Pliers and Snatcha Lion.

Richie Spice is currently on an American tour which ends in June.

Producer Craig Thelwell said the single means a lot to the artiste as it reflects his mother’s teachings and principles she passed to him.
