Karamanti drops visual for “Hell Fyah”

Posted on June 20, 2025 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

Dancehall artist Karamanti has just released the official video for “Hell Fyah,” a song she recorded some time ago and one that aptly explains why she’s been so inconsistent with sharing new music and making public appearances in recent months.

The song is featured on the Land Scape Riddim, a compilation that’s produced by recording artist and producer Rajah Dalla (aka Amnon) for his label Watzh You Frenz Records.

The visuals for “Hell Fyah” were captured in Jackson Town, Kingston, Jamaica. If you have not yet seen it, click here or on the image above to check it out, and remember to like, comment, and share.
