Mad Vybz from Kartel
THOUGH he was incarcerated for murder just over one year ago, Vybz Kartel continues to impact the dancehall scene in a major way.
Songs including Stop Follow Me, Dancehall and Party, have made local and North American reggae charts.
His latest effort, Mad Dawg, is produced by Dirtworx Records on the Knock Weh ‘riddim’. Since it was uploaded to YouTube on October 23, the song has garnered over 140,000 views.
“Vybz Kartel really delivered on this track and we are pleased with the finished product. The response has been all positive and if you look at the views on YouTube, the numbers are impressive. The promotional campaign will move into high gear shortly,” said Earl Moodie Jr of Dirtworx.
The Knock Weh is the first project from Dirtworx Records in over five years. The beat also features Hot Gal Luxury by Ffrench and Replay by Meddz.
