Skeng Takes Over NYC in Latest Music Video “New York”
Kingston, Jamaica – Skeng, one of dancehall’s hottest new stars, has once again made waves with the release of his highly anticipated music video New York, which dropped on September 27, 2024. The video, produced by DiTruth Records in collaboration with Don Money Records and True Game Entertainment, is already trending online, garnering over 21,000 views in just a few hours.
The video, directed by TrueYez Films and mixed by Alien Brain, captures Skeng’s raw, unfiltered energy as he showcases his journey in the bustling streets of New York City. From gritty street corners to high-end fashion spots, Skeng’s signature style and dynamic visuals set the tone for a track that’s quickly becoming an anthem among his growing global fanbase.
Skeng, who has cemented himself as a leading voice in modern dancehall, continues to push boundaries with New York. The song fuses traditional dancehall rhythms with modern, trap-inspired beats, creating what fans are calling a “choppa gospel.” In true Skeng fashion, the video portrays a gritty authenticity, with fans noting the appearance of a real rat crossing the street during the shoot — a scene that some hailed as a nod to his “Ratty Gang” following.
The fan reactions have been pouring in from all corners of the globe, with supporters from Spain, Kenya, Guyana, and even Afghanistan sharing their love for the track. One commenter, hailing from Afghanistan, humorously remarked that they “skipped bomb lessons just to listen to this masterpiece.”
Skeng’s rise to international stardom has been nothing short of remarkable. Known for his hits like Protocol and London, he has amassed a loyal following, with many praising his unapologetic lyrics and high-energy performances. New York follows this trend, taking his musical talents to new heights and further solidifying his influence not just in Jamaica but globally.
Fans and critics alike have drawn comparisons between Skeng and other major dancehall artists like Alkaline, but Skeng continues to carve his own path. The release of New York only proves that he has no intentions of slowing down anytime soon.
With his unique sound and growing influence, Skeng is on the verge of becoming one of Jamaica’s most influential musical exports. Whether in Canada, London, Paris, or New York, Skeng’s name is on the lips of dancehall lovers everywhere, and New York is just the latest proof of his staying power.
As Skeng continues his global takeover, the question remains: where will he conquer next?
