GRAMMY-nominated, chart-topping Jamaican artist, Shenseea has announced the arrival of her sophomore album, Never Gets Late Here, to be released on May 24.
Executive produced by chart topping hip hop producer London on Da Track, the album will be a kaleidoscope of rhythms and genre crossing music further reinforcing Shenseea’s signature sound established on her debut project, critically acclaimed album titled ALPHA (2022, Rich Immigrants/Interscope Records/Universal Music Canada). Blending deejaying and dancehall patterns with hip hop, R&B and pop elements has cemented Shenseea’s presence as one of music’s versatile young acts.
Shenseea has solidified her place as one of music’s most in-demand rising stars. Revered for her confident, slick-tongued patois rhymes and energetic pop hits, Shenseea’s skills as a singer, rapper and songwriter have earned her stamps of approval from The New York Times, The Guardian, Billboard and more. After releasing her Vybz Kartel-assisted debut single “Loodi” in 2016, and a stint on Sean Paul’s 2017 European tour, Shenseea joined Rich Immigrants/Interscope Records in 2019. She kept the energy high by releasing one-off tracks including her debut label single “Blessed” featuring Tyga which boasts millions of plays across DSPs and YouTube. In 2022, she released her highly anticipated debut album, Alpha, which debuted at #2 on Billboard’s Reggae Album chart, making Shenseea the first Jamaican artist to see such success on the Billboard charts in the last 17 years. Stacked with features including Megan Thee Stallion, 21 Savage, Tyga, Sean Paul, and Offset, the album seamlessly showcases a variety of Shenseea’s favourite genres, R&B, pop, reggae, dancehall, & rap. Following the release, Shenseea earned her first GRAMMY nomination and made her late-night TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! with a performance of “Deserve It”.
The announcement of Shenseea’s new album comes soon after the release of “Neva Neva” — a reggae tinged summer offering — that will appear on the album alongside previous releases “Hit & Run” featuring Masicka and Di Genius as well as “Die For You” produced by Rvssian.
The album’s special guests also represent different regional sounds including artists such as Afrobeats artist Wizkid, GRAMMY-nominated artist and Boston rapper-artist Coi Leray, Latin pop songstress Anitta as well as home grown talent Masicka and Di Genius from Jamaica. Across the fourteen tracks, Shenseea proves the strength of her songwriting and ability to create pockets of infectious melodies resulting in a truly unique body of work.
