Gold Face hopes for Better Days

- BY KEVIN JACKSON

HOPE for a better life and finding ways of escaping a life of poverty has been a constant cry for many. Trelawny-based dancehall deejay Gold Face uses this as inspiratio­n for his latest single Better Days.

Better Days was produced by Run Road Entertainm­ent.

The deejay believes the song’s message is relatable.

“It’s a song that many can relate to. Many ghetto youths are hoping for a change and that is the basis of Better Days,” he told the Jamaica Observer.

Two years ago, Gold

Face (given name Ackeem Minto) decided to pursue a career in music. He is also upbeat about the success of rural acts including Teejay and Rygin King, who hail from western Jamaica.

“It has not being an easy journey. I have had a lot of ups and downs, but

I try to stay focussed and improve on my music career,” said Gold

Face.

Asked what he brings to the table musically, he said: “I bring a different vibe, marvellous sound, and an orotund force.”

Aside from Better Days, the deejay is also promoting Auto Press, a song produced by Nine Slice Entertainm­ent. Videos for both songs are expected to be released next month.
