A few days ago, dancehall recording artist Karamanti shot the official video for her trending new single, “Mi Nuh Bow.” The visuals were captured by fellow artist and producer Mackamilli in Seaview Gardens, Kingston, Jamaica. The video is currently being edited and is expected to be released by the end of February.
Additionally, Karamanti is currently writing for her new album, which she hopes to have out before the Summer of 2021. Though the project does not yet have an official title, it is expected to cover several genres: reggae, dancehall, poetry, afrobeat and world music.
Unlike her last album, that was done with one producer, this new record will feature rhythms from several beat makers, with the overall production by Blakkwuman22 Music (Karamanti’s record label).
