He has a new one-drop called Nuff Love, and a dancehall project dubbed Energy Rush which he will be unleashing over the next two months. "The Nuff Love rhythm is a live lover's rock reggae. I love the way reggae music is building up with the likes of Notice Productions and his Digital Love rhythm with artistes like D Major, Exco Levi, Christopher Martin, Romain Virgo, Chronixx and Dre Island. Producers Donovan Germaine and Shane Brown are doing some great work to elevate the ting. That is why I am playing my role, I collaborated with Clive Hunt on this project because I believe he is the perfect person to work with. He is very experienced and knows good reggae music," he said.
