UZMAN Will Be Featured On Jamaica’s Suncity Radio This Friday, April 16th (@UZMAN1)

As he continues to push his latest release, “Stress Less,” Canadian rapper UZMAN will be appearing on Suncity Radio this Friday, April 16th, to talk about the record and the inspiration behind it. He will be joining popular radio personality Gary Freestylez at 8:30 PM (JA time), and the two are expected to have an in-depth conversation about the stressful impact the pandemic is having on the masses.

UZMAN became known to Jamaicans some years ago when he released the hit single “Night Life,” a collaboration done with veteran reggae artist Jah Mason. Since then he has done several shows on the island; he has also worked with other local acts both as an artist and a producer. Additionally, his new single, “Stress Less,” has been getting steady rotation on several music platforms nationwide. 

Suncity Radio can be heard on the 104.9 FM dial locally, and online via the station’s website: http://www.suncityradio.fm
