CaNn CaNn Joins Donskii On The Remix Of “Vibe”

St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands’ native CaNn CaNn is featured on the remake of Donskii‘s single Vibe. The newly released song, which comes to us courtesy of Wonder 4 Music, went live on streaming platforms this past Friday, March 1st. The team at Wonder 4 felt that CaNn CaNn is the ideal artist for this remix because, aside from his lyrical prowess, he is a lot like Donskii in that his brand and overall career have been on an upward trajectory.

The original version of Vibe can be accurately described as an afro-dancehall party track that was first shared on Donskii‘s album, Greatness, published in January of this year. CaNn CaNn‘s lyrics, however, have transformed it from being just a club tune to more of a love song with an international flavor. 

Vibe (Remix) can be streamed and/or downloaded from Spotify, Deezer, iTunes, Amazon, Tidal, and all other digital music stores. Also, an official music video is already in the works.
