Causion’s “Thank You” Continues To Garner Great Reviews

Long after it was first shared as a single, Thank You, the lead track on Causion‘s latest EP is still garnering great reviews. What’s more, all the positive assessments are now coming from actual reggae selectors who are active in the industry. 

Here is what DJ Shaun Fisher of The HillTop Radio Show had to say about it: “This track is fire, has a old school reggae feel from the 90s. This is also a cross over to R&B radio. I’ve loaded up on my streaming radio station.”

The above statement was bolstered by Master K (RG2 Radio), who added: “This tune can be played in any setting, it can be used for when you want to give thanks, also when anyone does good for someone and we all need to give thanks at sometime or another.”

Finally, Tracy Moore, the host of Reggae Shack on KWNK 97.7 FM, wrote the following: “Thank you” delivers the credit to Jah, but also calls for a positive and resolute approach to adversity. Causion’s smoky yet gently forceful vocal style rests comfortably on top of the cheerful yet unrelenting backing riddim, adding up to a track you’ll want to take in and apply to your own challenges.”

Several other top-tier ratings were collected from radio, mixtape, and club deejays located in various parts of the world. The consensus is that this song has all the ingredients to be a massive breakout hit; and most importantly, it’s timeless.
