Dancehall youngblood Breeze Genah dropped his ode to Nike’s Air Force One sneakers in a rhyme-happy single, ‘Air Force 1’ featuring fellow dancehall artiste Aiden.

“The early feedback has been great, people are really loving the video. Air Force Ones are an iconic brand, Nelly did a song with it, Kartel and his son did a song so I am just carrying on in that tradition, this is a really cool sneakers, having the right kicks is a symbol of status, an extension of the image of artiste, and I really love these shoes,” Breeze Genah said.

The single was released with swanky visuals with beautiful women and luxury cars on July 22 via the HowWow Records label and is now available on all digital platforms.

The first pair of Nike’s Air Force One sneakers hit the market in 1982, at a time when hip-hop and the branding of Michael Jordan were both on the rise. Rapper Nelly’s famous song entitled “Air Force Ones” is perhaps the most famous example of US rappers bragging about this sneaker in songs. In 2021, Vybz Kartel with Likkle Vybz, and Likkle Addi did their own tribute to the iconic kicks.

The ‘Air Force 1’ single appears on the GG rhythm — created by Lamar ‘Cell Block’ Thompson — which features previously released songs such as Jahvlllani’s title track, ‘GG’, which has racked up 200,000 views since its release on July 1.

The project features six tracks, three of which have been previously released: ‘Money & Fun’ by Deep Jahi, the Jahvillani chart-burner, and ‘Me Hype Mi Self’ by emerging sensation, Smashing.

“We’re going to release a new song every Friday. On July 22nd, we released ‘Air Force 1’ and J Toxic’s ‘Like Fifa’, while Excel Black’s Groove will be out on July 29th,” producer Roderick ‘Raddy’ Fray, chief executive officer of HowWow Records, said.
