Buju Banton’s ‘This is Jamaica’ surpasses 1 million organic streams on Spotify and YouTube visualizer

KINGSTON, Jamaica – International reggae superstar Buju Banton is making waves with his latest single, “This is Jamaica,” which has achieved remarkable organic streaming success in just a few weeks.

The track has surpassed 1 million streams on Spotify, and the accompanying visualizer on YouTube has also garnered over 1 million organic views.

The single is rapidly taking over streaming platforms, with more than a dozen organic playlists adding the song today alone, creating another surge in saves and streams. This accomplishment comes as Jamaica celebrates its 62nd year of Independence and a series of firsts at the Olympic Games.

“This is Jamaica” resonates deeply with listeners worldwide, showcasing Buju Banton’s signature sound and poignant lyrics that celebrate the rich culture and heritage of Jamaica. The timing of this release couldn’t be more perfect, as the nation comes together to honour its history and achievements on the global stage.

Buju Banton is also gearing up for his highly anticipated Overcomer Tour, set to kick off in a few weeks. Fans can expect powerful performances and a celebration of resilience and triumph that mirrors the spirit of his latest hit.

As Buju Banton continues to dominate the charts and captivate audiences with his music, “This is Jamaica” stands as a testament to his enduring influence and the universal appeal of dancehall and reggae music.
