Rollie Fresh urges J’cans to ‘Detox’ for COVID cure

-

Dancehall lyricist Rollie Fresh goes controvers­ial on his new single, ‘Detox’.

The single, voiced as a No Rush parody, focuses particular­ly on the manipulati­ons and mental slavery people are facing, especially during the global pandemic.

“The intention is to inspire my people to see that it is only by detoxing your mind from all confusion, and taking your health in your own hands, [that] we can ever truly be free from this coronaviru­s; we are our own best doctor,” Rollie Fresh said.

The artiste, who has been on the musical scene for more than 10 years, chose this ‘No Rush’ beat because of its popularity, internatio­nally, as a single by

Young T and

Bugsey.

Detox is released on

Rollie Fresh’s

Above The

Average Record label, with tweaks to the original rhythm, adding his twist with powerful words.

The artiste also believes the content is pure truth and isn’t afraid to be considered unorthodox or controvers­ial, especially with Jamaica’s increased COVID-19 numbers.

“I want listeners to feel the wonderful energy of life’s harmony flowing through this song and to know the best system is a sound system. Don’t get confused by all the lies we are being fed, your health is your wealth” he said. With other new tracks released, Rollie Fresh believes his material is diverse and has been getting rave reviews, especially with the new video for the single Stalker, with fans applauding his creativity. Rollie Fresh will be looking to remix the Detox single soon and add visuals as

well.
