Fyah Stumpy aims to make a splash

-

DESPITE the entertainm­ent sector lockdown due to COVID-19, producer Linton “Fyah Stumpy” Walker is pushing ahead with his musical production­s. He is currently promoting the single Beach Side by Laza Laad.

“COVID-19 appears to be here to stay so I can’t put the music business on hold. So, I am heading back in the studio. I am not taking any chances with my health and will be following the protocols outlined by the Government,” said Fyah Stumpy.

“The song I am pushing this year to the fullest is Beach Side. Why, because of its impact on the streets. It’s lively and entertaini­ng,” he continued.

Beach Side was released last year on the producer’s Fyah Stumpy Records. Laza

Laad (given name Joseph Cornwall), who recorded the song, is happy the producer is putting his promotiona­l muscle behind the single.

“Everyone wants to have a splash in the beach. They[’re] just waiting on COVID to disappear so it is bound to get the attention it deserves,” the 24-year-old said.

“I would very much love this song to be heavily promoted overseas — and that does not seem impossible, as the promotion will kick off in Canada and the US in a matter of weeks,” Laza Laad continued.

Currently, all public beaches and rivers remain closed by order of the Government of Jamaica in an effort to curtail the spread of COVID-19.

Fyah Stumpy hails from Sligoville, St Catherine. He entered the music world some three years ago with Go Hard and Hard Times by Jmovemence. His other production­s include Hotvybes and So Easily.
