Reggae artiste Fyah Konkarah is taking a lot of flak from his male friends for his latest single, Granted, a catchy song which addresses the age-old cardinal sin of relationships where one partner fails to properly appreciate the other, especially as a result of over familiarity.

“The man dem a bun mi out for this one, but the girls dem love it because the song de pon their side, so dem automatically love it. The man dem a say mi de pon the woman dem side too much so mi ah get a mixed reaction from them. Dem want ah song representing the male side because according to them, ‘the woman dem wicked’,” Fyah Konkarah said.

The song, the lead single from his recently-released Granted EP, is inspired by his personal experiences.

“The song itself came from my life personally, taking my woman for granted cause my relationship to fail, whether you go back together or not, so mi go through it. With me, it was not a bun thing, is like over familiarity, mi nah carry her out, drop by with lunch and do the simple things the women ‘apprecilove’, and that’s why Granted is so powerful,” he added.

The six-track Granted EP, produced by Ghost Entertainment, is a smooth blend of Afrobeat rhythms and heartfelt storytelling.

“Every track captures a different side of relationships — from love and passion to disappointment and personal growth. It’s a perfect soundtrack for late-night vibes, summer drives, and dancing under the stars,” he eplained. The EP features standout songs such as “Radio”, “Señorita”, and “Switch-Up”.

Emerging from the community of St Johns Road in Spanish Town, St Catherine—an area long troubled by violence and hardship—Fyah Konkarah’s love for music began at 9-years-old, influenced by icons such as Bob Marley, Papa San, Lieutenant Stitchie, Beenie Man, Bounty Killa, Sizzla, Bushman, and Daddy Screw.

These voices inspired him to begin writing his own lyrics and shaping a style that fused deejaying with deep-rooted cultural messages.

In 2004, tragedy struck with the death of his cousin Mike, a turning point that led Fyah Konkarah to embrace Rastafarianism. This spiritual awakening deepened his lyrical focus, giving him a mission beyond entertainment: to uplift the people and spread consciousness.

His first official release came in 2008 with “Ganja” alongside “Potential” on the Ghetto Party riddim.

In 2017, Fyah Konkarah linked up with Farie Pimpin Records, marking the start of an important new chapter. That same year, he and fellow artist Nitty Kutchy launched their “Never Giving Up” European promotional tour, traveling through Belgium, Amsterdam, and Zurich, Switzerland.

He dropped his debut album D.R.E.A.M., in collaboration with Ghost Entertainment and Kyllah Fam, in 2022.

Known as “The Scaaachy One,” Konkarah has become a rising voice of strength, unity, and truth, and a soldier of Rastafari whose music reflects both his struggles and his triumphs.
