Recording artist Dollarman has finally released the follow-up to his trending single We Belong. The new record, titled So Tired, is an inspirational reggae song that, according to Dollarman, was written “to provide the words needed to assist people who can’t seem to find a way to stand up to whatever is forcing them to sit down.”
Shared on September 2nd, it was produced by Bernard Joseph, affectionately referred to as IOBI, and Dollarman for 420 Records and Dollarman‘s own imprint with the same name. This is the team that gave us We Belong. Although two versions of the track were released, selectors who have already been serviced have gravitated towards the more heavy-bass dub mix.
Though recorded in New York, where Dollarman is based, the backing vocals for So Tired were done in Miami by Naomi Trench (also known as Makedah). It was mixed in Jamaica by legendary record producer and sound engineer Karl Pitterson, who started out in the 1970s working at Studio One, Treasure Isle, Dynamics, etc. with the likes of Peter Tosh, Steele Pulse, Bob Marley, and others.
When asked what he would like listeners to take away from So Tired, Dollarman simply said, “When people listen to “So Tired,” I will like them to feel self-empowered. Motivated to stand up for themselves.” He also added the following: “I would like to mention to other artists that music without a message is no music at all. Let’s be responsible for what our younger ones listen to.”
So Tired is available on Apple Music, Spotify, iTunes, Amazon Music, Deezer, Tidal, Pandora, and YouTube Music.
