In the first quarter of 2021, reggae legend Prince Alla – in collaboration with Josh Harris – shared an inspirational roots single called We Must Work It Out. Since its release, the song has been heralded as one of Alla‘s strongest tunes, garnering consistent praise from reggae critics worldwide.

Based on its continued growth, the team at Big Feet Records – the music label on which it is published – thought it was time to give it some visuals. That said, the official video premiered on YouTube this past Friday, October 6th.

Because of his esteemed status within Jamaica’s music industry, several notable reggae figures made cameo appearances in the clip: Keith Silvertones Coley, Daddy Shark, Quench Aid, Jr. Byles, The Sheriff, Lamont, and others.
