Rising Jamaican superstar Shenseea continues to bring the heat with her music and newest offering “Lighter” is no different. The deejay/singjay artist collaborated with fellow Jamaican artist Tarrus Riley and Platinum selling producer Rvssian — making for a stunning and melodic collaboration. The track which has topped the Reggae charts in Jamaica also went on to top several other Caribbean territories, including “Cayman, Dominica, Belize, British Virgin Islands, Grenada, Antigua, and Barbados.
Shenseea’s stunning vocals which contributed to the track’s addicting hook sparked the #LighterChallenge on social media where fans are taking turns to record their rendition of the song (watch here). It’s no surprise that outlets like New York Times, Billboard, FADER, The Guardian and more are calling her the next big crossover act. At work on her major label debut album, Shenseea continues to shake up the conversation around dancehall and instill fresh and fun energy that aims to crossover into the mainstream zeitgeist.
