Dem tell you this and tell you that but you always have my back. You love the Natty Dread,he professes on his new song. As he confesses his devotion for his Queen on this ride-or-die anthem, his rugged and smooth lyrics ride over the infectious dub rhythm, produced by Sean Alaric.

The Royal LP follows his debut album Lily of Da Valley, which held the #1 position for six weeks on the Billboard’s U.S. Reggae Album chart.
