Kaisha Lee believes she is ‘Ready Fi Dis’

Reggae songstress Kaisha Lee is starting the new year off with a new track titled Ready Fi Dis, which was officially released on January 2.

" Ready Fi Dis is speaking on the different weapons of modern warfare that Jah has provided for us, food and herbs. It encourages us to grow our own and to eat our fruits and vegetables daily, drink water and stay hydrated. This is the modern-day armour needed to survive on earth," the singer explained.

Completed in just a few minutes, the song flowed as a part of the singer's everyday meditations, sharing a new side that most of her listeners don't know.

"I think people are surprised by this track because they didn't expect this direction, in terms of the topic. I have a comedic flare on Twitter and Instagram, from time to time on various issues. Even the ' ra ta ta tat' in the intro, when I released the pre-order for the song, I know some people thought it was a gun song only to turn around and hear the actual lyrics," she stated.

Currently based in Toronto, Canada, Kaisha Lee has been on the music scene for the past 11 years.

"Reggae, R&B, dancehall, I do it all. I am obsessed with all music. I also love jazz and anything old school. I wish I could go back in time and create a Studio One album, rock with the I-Threes, write a song for Bob (Marley), all of that," she said.

Kaisha Lee, who released an 18-track album, I Heart Reggae in 2014, said that she is currently working on an album.

"I'm not rushing it, because I want it to be great. If it's not this year, then maybe next year. But I'm really working towards at least releasing an EP this year. I have a lot of unreleased material, lots of voice notes of ideas in my phone waiting to be refined. It was a singles market for a small artiste such as myself for a while, but having a body of work can get you more places, so I will do it," she said.
