Wesrok’s “Perfectly Imperfect” Continues To Soar!

Jamaica’s music industry has changed significantly. In the past it would take years for new artists to come to the fore, and when they do, it was as a result of an introduction or endorsement by a more established act. Things are very different now. Today we are almost at the opposite end of the spectrum; meaning we have a fair amount of emerging performers. Sadly, what we are lacking in this day and age is substance.

In comes Jamaica’s king of country-reggae music, Wesrok. In just three short years, independent recording artist Wesrok – who has carved out a niche market as a country-reggae singer – has gone from newcomer to international stardom. His music is not just unique in sound and style, it is also uplifting, optimistic, and inspiring. Wesrok is definitely an artist to watch!

His latest single, Perfectly Imperfect, truly sums up his overall message, and shows why he stands out amongst all the new reggae and dancehall artists now competing for our attention. Released at the start of the year, Perfectly Imperfect has worked its way to the top of playlists here in Jamaica, and in international territories far and wide. It grew to an even wider audience when the official video was shared in May.

Perfectly Imperfect can be streamed and or downloaded from iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer, Amazon, and all other digital music platforms. It comes to us courtesy of Wesrok‘s own imprint, 360 Global Entertainment.
