Hezron has a new album scheduled for release in April. But as that date approaches, the singer is shopping “Tik Tok”, one of the songs from the set which will be distributed by Tad’s International Record.
He co-produced the single with Devon Bradshaw, a veteran bassist best known for touring and recording with Burning Spear and Garnet Silk.
Released on January 21, “Tik Tok” has a soul flavour reminiscent of “Consider Me”, the 1969 song by Eddie Floyd that is widely-popular in Jamaica.
“I didn’t really have a soul song in mind. I just know that I wanted to write a sexy song on the album for my female fans with a riddim or music that really connect deep within the soul. And an old school feel music like an Al Green or Otis Redding was the clear and only option,” said Hezron.
“Tik Tok” is the second song from the projected album to be released. The first, “Man On A Mission”, came out last year.
It will be the second album for Hezron, who is best known for songs like “Taxi Driver” and “Resilience”.
The upcoming set is his second album. His first, “The Life I Live(d)” was released in 2014 by Tad’s International Record.
