All performers were carefully selected by Tad’s Record Inc.‘s founder, Tad Dawkins, along with his son and business partner, Tad Dawkins Jr. This is their contribution to Jamaica’s 61st anniversary.

Donskii Goes “Fully Don” On New EP

Posted on August 6, 2023 by Maria Jackson 27 Magazine

Every once in a while an artist comes along with such raw talent that his or her path to success seems almost assured. Such is the case with eighteen-year-old Ghanaian sing-jay Donskii. The half Jamaican (Ghanaian mother, Jamaican father) was introduced to the world outside of Ghana only a few weeks ago, when Wonder 4 Music – the imprint to which he is signed – shared his first official single, Sweet Africa. The track received great reviews and left selectors asking for a follow up. In late July, they got it!

On July 24th Wonder 4 Music released Donskii‘s four-track EP, Fully Don. The record is a mix of dancehall and Afro-rhythms, and is flawless in both style and delivery. Most importantly, it gives listeners further insight into the thinking of the emerging lyricist, and draws attention to his level of commitment to the creative process.

Fully Don bridges the gap between Afro-dancehall and dancehall music from Jamaica, and it is being presented by a man that is quite capable of doing just that. The EP is available on Apple Music, Spotify, iTunes, Amazon, Deezer, Tidal and all other streaming platforms.
