Is Admiral Bailey Making A Comeback?

I just heard a tuff new single from veteran dancehall deejay Admiral Bailey. The song is produced by Sipo Records and it’s called “Di Style.” Apparently it was released in November but it is just now getting some real traction with increase airplay.

Before realizing that it’s Admiral Bailey, I was simply listening the track – a hardcore dancehall, one-drop record – and then it dawned on me to find out who is the artist. Imagine my surprise when I learn that it’s none other than the Admiral!

As far as lyrics goes, he is still all about the ladies and yes, it is PG rated. But as it relates to style and flow, Admiral Bailey is sounding real good; he can stand next to any of these young guys currently trending.
