King X makes you ‘Wonder’

Jamaica-born deejay King X can easily relate to bad mind and envy by his detractors and highlights it in his latest single titled Wonder, which was produced by Dweetnow Entertainment.

"As soon as I garnered a little attention, I've seen my peers switch up and act funny. I figured that if I could put my experiences in my music, the listeners will gravitate towards the message because its relatable," said King X. Wonder was officially released last August, but King X has decided to throw the promotional muscle behind the song because of its message.

A video for the song was shot on location in Connecticut, where he is based, under the direction of Christopher Facey, aka Facey Shot It. King X, who is originally from Whitfield Town, says he is encouraged by the feedback to the song.

"The feedback has been nothing other than positive. Fans have been raving with their support, especially since the visuals came out," he said. The dancehall artiste, whose given name is Shawn Buchanan, ended up doing music as mere fun.

"To be honest, all my friends were doing music so I figured why not give it a try jokingly. I ended up having fun while I was trying to mock them and it turned out that I wasn't too bad musically. Growing up, I used to always clash with my friends singing industry songs," he shared.

King X made his recording debut in 2007 with the song Road Kill, which was produced by Dweetnow Entertainment. Since then, his talent has been recognised by several leading Jamaican producers, including Dynasty Entertainment, Track Starr, NS Music, Zigman Records and No Landing Music.

"I feel as each day goes by, I find myself evolving musically into different sounds and melodies. Very lyrical yet not overbearing," he explained.

An EP with original material is expected to be released within the first quarter of 2022.
