Wormbass, the veteran bass player who gained notoriety as an instrumental member in Beenie Man‘s former Blaze Band, has for the past few years been focused on his own career as a recording artist. The multitalented musician and producer has demonstrated that he just may be more adept at writing and singing, than he is at playing the many instruments that he commands.
As he readies himself for the release of his album – scheduled for Summer 2021 – he is sharing the second single from that upcoming project. Done on an afrobeat rhythm, “Follow You,” which is the song’s title, should be rightfully classified as a Rastafarian praise and worship hymn. As Wormbass correctly states, the sound of the afrobeat is a reminder of the cultural foot steps of Kumina born in his birthplace of St Thomas, Jamaica.
The creation of “Follow You” was a team effort. First and foremost it was produced by Wormbass (whose birthname is Delroy Nevin) and Kemar ‘Khemis’ Campbell of Vybnation Records. Musicians that contributed to the production included: Matthew Jacquette on guitar and Sly Dunbar, who added some overdubs. Different parts of this track were recorded at various studios, namely: Vybnation Records, Bear Fruits Records and One POP Records.
With the release of the song, Wormbass is making it clear “that there is still a Creator, who inspite of all the disarray that the world is experiencing is very much present and available to help us throughout each of our trying days.”
