The mixture of songs on the project is very progressive in concept as the main ideas behind the composition is health and spirituality.
Black Queen was previously known for doing regular Dancehall songs in the Dancehall space however, she changed her direction to be more positive for this project.
The female singer stated that the decision was an effort to contribute to the constructive progress of black people, as that is what they need at this time.
The entertainer grew up in the community of Waterhouse, the same place that world-renown producer, King Jammy’s is from.
Just like the title of her project and in defense of her race, Queen did a song called “Black n Proud” which already is being said to be getting good rotation on the radio.
The Ep launch featured many Rastafarian members who sold their products to those attending. This complemented the positive nature of Black Queen’s Ep and helped to promote the change of her musical style.
The amazing compilation of songs from the female entertainer also features a song done for the late Niko Chromatic who unfortunately passed away in 2018 entitled “nobody feels my pain”.
In addition to the First Lady of Dancehall, and a performance by Black Queen herself, the very interesting Ep launch featured great performances from entertainers such as Singer J who she has a magnificent collaboration with, Chuck Fenda, and Italee, who came out in support of the now conscious female artiste.
Queen said that Italee contributed to the spiritual vibe of the launch and was a member of a powerful trio of Aries women featuring the two, and D’Angel.
