Ricky Carty to release EP

-

Despite gaining much popularity through controvers­y, dancehall artiste Ricky Carty has in recent times decided to use his creativity to change the nature of his music while still keeping his fans entertaine­d.

“I feel music is an art that has no boundaries or rules, just creativity, and as such, I express myself very differentl­y from others. My music is a safe haven for people who don’t judge and who can appreciate art in its many forms,” he shared. The artiste is currently gearing up for the October 1 release of his Checkmate

EP

The artiste has released three songs from the EP, namely, Press Pon Dem, Double Up and Sauce.

The EP is a collaborat­ive project between Wizical Beats and Bvrban Beats, and is set to be distribute­d by Splice Media Entertainm­ent.

“I decided to drop three songs, all of which are accompanie­d by visuals, and so far the response has been tremendous. Two of the music videos have passed over 100,000 views on YouTube and it’s an amazing feeling to be experienci­ng this amount of genuine support,” he said. He also shared that Press

Pon Dem charted at number 60 on the UK iTunes Top 100 Charts.
