Not many recording artistes from the rural town of Annotto Bay in St Mary can boast that they have climbed onto international musical charts. However, Currenci 87 says he plans to use his career to change the narrative that it is harder to get a major musical breakthrough while residing outside of Jamaica’s capital Kingston.

The singjay says the success of his single, Owna Tings, which is currently holding the number seven spot on the USA Itunes Reggae Singles chart, as well as enjoying daily rotation on local and international radio stations, is an indication that good music has no limits.

“Me stay a Annotto Bay St Mary and chart inna America and get played the four corners of the earth, suh me want tell every artiste wheh based inna di country area dem seh just do good music and nuh listen to who a tell yuh seh yuh haffi live a town fi buss. Music nuh deh a nuh man foot inna 2026,” Currenci 87 stated.

The artiste says he hopes to claim the number one spot soon. According to the artiste, this would be a major milestone for not only himself but his community and upcoming artistes from his parish.

“Right now everytime me song play pon radio a lone pot cover and fence a beat down Inna me place and when me song hit the chart the people see it and tell me before me did even have an idea seh it deh deh. If this all guh reach number one a excitement Inna me village,” stated Currenci 87.

The St Mary native is currently busy promoting Owna Tings as well as recording for several top notch producers.
