“Sweet reggae music, can’t refuse it.” Those are words spoken by recording artist Tommie Tei at the beginning of his tune, Dynamite. The song, which was first shared as a stand alone single last summer, is now featured on the recently released rhythm-driven compilation with the same name.
Produced by British music creative Ede Conscious, Tommie Tei‘s Dynamite has been getting great reviews, so much so that it became necessary to do a video. As such, the official music video was shot, edited, and uploaded to Tommie Tei‘s YouTube channel last month.
When asked what inspired the captivating reggae song, Tommie Tei said the following: so Ede Conscious reach out to me and say Tommie Tei I have a project and I would like you to be on it, what do you think? And I said to him ye man no problem, willing fi work. And I said send me the beat, and den him send me the beat, and from me hear the beat is just one thing come to me mind is like it a give me a vibe weh just give me a different kind a energy, a vibe weh from me hear it me a say no man da riddim ya bad.
