About This Album
Shenseea has solidified her place as one of music’s most in-demand rising stars. Revered for her confident, slick-tongued patois rhymes—known as toasting in her native Jamaica—and energetic reworkings of dancehall hits, Shenseea’s skills as a singer, rapper and songwriter earned stamps of approval from The New York Times, The Guardian, Billboard and more, and from legends like Funkmaster Flex and Missy Elliott. Shenseea’s ever-increasing talents have afforded her opportunities beyond the Caribbean dancehall sphere. She’s locked-in collaborations in pop (Christina Aguilera’s “Right Moves”), R&B (Masego’s “Silver Tongue Devil”), and EDM (Major Lazer’s “Tiny”). The latter two song appear on the Grammy-nominated projects, Studying Abroad: Extended Stay and Music Is The Weapon (Reloaded), respectively. Her star power rose even higher after serving as the sole female rapper on Kanye West’s Grammy-nominated album DONDA, where she’s heard in “Pure Souls” and in “Ok Ok Pt 2,” spitting a verse Complex calls “sensual” and “fierce.” Her debut album ALPHA, features artists like 21 Savage and dancehall luminaries Beenie Man and Sean Paul, among others—displays Shenseea’s writing, singing and rapping prowess, as well as her affinity for traversing genres. It also debuted at #2 on Billlboard’s Reggae chart.
