Toronto's JAHKOY's been making some noise over the past few years. Most recently, he released his latest project KOYA. Although it's been roughly a month since he released the project, that hasn't stopped him from continuing to feed fans new music. Shortly after the release of the project, he linked up with producer Elevator for the song "Crazy Girl." Now, he follows it up with a brand new single that's perfect to ride out the last month of the summer to.
JAHKOY comes through with his new song, "Back Up Freestyle." The song was produced by Sango. JAHKOY and Sango have an evident dancehall influence on "Back Up Freestyle" which only makes sense considering that the song's release coincided with Toronto's annual Caribbean festival, Caribana.
Peep JAHKOY's new song and keep your eyes peeled for new music from both artists.
Quotable Lyrics
Shake up the wave
Takin' your place
Who do mi know
