I-Octane gets green light with Dat Dem Say

Dancehall artiste I-Octane is keeping the momentum high with the release of his latest single
Dat Dem Say, followed by the official release of the song’s visualiser on June 17.

The track, which was released at the beginning of June, is already gaining traction with fans and receiving attention across multiple platforms.

Produced by Track Starr, Dat Dem Say delivers I-Octane’s signature energy and lyrical style, while the visualiser was directed by renowned creative Bling Blang, bringing the song’s concept to life.

According to I-Octane, the response from fans has been strong since the release.

“The fans dem love it bad, bad! The video and audio are already doing great, plus it’s playing in the dances, on radio,
TikTok, and IG (Instagram). So, the fans dem into it,” I-Octane, whose given name is Byomie Muir, told the Jamaica Observer’s Splash.

The release comes during what the artiste describes as a strong year for both himself and his team, with consistent work behind the scenes translating into new music and growing momentum.

“[The year] 2026 is a beautiful year so far for me and my team in music. A lot of behind-the-scenes work a pon it, plus a few new tracks out already and doing well in rotation,” he said.

Alongside Dat Dem Say, I-Octane has been delivering a series of releases with various producers, including
Top Gyalis by Zum, produced by DJ Mac; and Spending Powers by Good Good Productions.

He also revealed that another single is on the way, produced by Seanizzle Records, titled Balance Pon Yuh Hand — another track aimed at the ladies.

The artiste continues to maintain his presence on stages worldwide following a recent performance in Bermuda and preparing for upcoming appearances in Philadelphia and Seattle in the United States.

Beyond the current singles, I-Octane is also focused on his next major body of work.

“I am working on a new album, plus I am still promoting (the) God & I album. So please stay tuned,” he said.

With new releases, international performances, and continued fan support, I-Octane remains active in pushing his sound forward while building toward the next chapter of his musical journey.
