Jamaican star Konshens releases his anticipated song “SHEK IT”.

Internationally renowned Jamaican artist, Konshens, is the voice behind many of the biggest Dancehall anthems of all-time. He’s back with “Shek It” – a certified Dancehall hit produced by Costa Rica’s super producer BomboCat.

The new single is a mix of Afro Latin music paired with Konshens’s catchy melodies and demeanor.

The movie-style directed music video by Rizzy brings suspense but at the same time a good dance and twist to the plot. 

Konshens says on his hardcore dancehall delivery on the new release, “This marks the return of Dancehall to its glory days when it was all about fun and the dance floor,” adding on a special message to his fans in Africa, “Thank you all for showing so much love to me, my genre Dancehall, and Jamaican culture as a whole. The love is mutual, and I hope you enjoy this one! Deep gratitude!”

For a good number of record years, Konshens relationship with Africa has stayed fond and sentimental, further expanding his global influence and reach.

Evident of this is the inspiration of this track saying, “I got the beat while I was in Kenya a year ago. I set up my mobile studio and recorded it right in the middle of a hotel room during an after-party.

With all the buzz around me, I absorbed all that energy and channeled it into the track.”

“Shek It” that follows the success of Konshens’s recent release “Look Good” is the lead track off Konshens’s next studio project that’s work in progress and slated for release in the late third quarter of 2024.

He’s a specialist in so-called ‘gyal tunes’ hits capable of sending dancers into a frenzy the moment they play in a party. 

Konshens has been steadily growing a diverse and dedicated fanbase for almost two decades. 

His international smash hits “Bruk Off Yuh Back”, “Turn Me On” and “Gal a Bubble”, among others, are absolute essentials of the genre that have helped drive his goal of elevating Dancehall and Jamaican music to a truly global level and acceptance worldwide.

With over 200 songs released, Konshens has amassed over 1 billion streams globally, with a daily peak of 3 million streams on Spotify.

Several of his tracks have surpassed 100 million streams each, reflecting his widespread appeal across a diverse global fanbase. As you anticipate his new album, be sure to keep an eye out for his tours across the US, Europe and Africa.

In addition to his musical achievements, Konshens has significantly impacted the African music scene, particularly in countries like Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, and Zimbabwe.

His performances across these nations have not only captivated audiences but also fostered a deep cultural exchange, bridging the gap between Caribbean and African musical traditions.

His presence in Africa has contributed to the growing popularity of dancehall music on the continent, and he continues to build a strong connection with his African fans.
