“My main goal while creating this masterpiece was to create music that would reflect our growth as individuals. 

While demonstrating how we’ve evolved musically, but still remain authentic to everyone involved. And hopefully deliver something that our original fans will love and enjoy, and maybe inspire both the previous and new generations of artists and musicians” says Dave Kelly.

 

The musical genius Dave Kelly also shared “Working on this EP, the musical chemistry between our collective minds was powerful and intuitive, focused and harmonious, which led to the perfect synergism during the creative process, and fostered an environment void of all egos. It allowed our creative juices to flow unencumbered. So as usual, we stuck to our philosophy of using the studio to have fun”.

 

The three masterminds went to a secret location for a month and recorded most of the songs for the EP. Prolific dancehall artiste Cham and Bounty Killer uttered, “We went into the studio and created musical time bombs. We want the fans to know that dancehall is alive and well, just waiting on the time bomb to explode... the musical time bomb”.
