Sativa D Black 1 targets
Personal experience inspired singer Sativa D Black 1’s latest song, Petty Thief, produced by YGF Records.
“One day mi lef mi shoes pon mi house top an’ when mi come back the shoes gone. This happens inna a lot of communities where yuh have petty thieves that terrorise people, so this song is social commentary and humorous, but it is a serious topic,” he said.
Petty Thief is part of Sativa D Black 1’s EP, to be released through Charm B Productions, which manages his career.
The company also produced some of the artiste’s other new singles, including Ungrateful Grip Me and Walk Her Out.
Born Shaun Smith in Linstead, St. Catherine, Sativa D Black 1 started in music as a selector on local sound system Up Setters. He was known as Tommy Skunk, then Tommy Ice.
In 2012, he entered the Magnum Kings & Queens of Dancehall competition and has since recorded a number of songs for various producers.
