Multi-talented Jamaican singer, songwriter, and producer Jada Kingdom makes a powerful statement with the release, on March 21, of her audacious new single, “G.A.D.,” an acronym for “Girls Are Drugs.”
Trinidadian-born entertainment publicist Paul Thom of The Thom Brand said the track features “an exhilarating, guitar-driven production crafted by renowned Jamaican producer Yo Christon [Vybz Kartel, Sizzla, and Buju Banton] and transports listeners into an electrifying world of pop-punk, characterized by punchy guitar riffs, driving rhythms, and Jada’s captivating vocal delivery.
“In this bold release, Jada Kingdom showcases her fearless approach to blending genres and takes significant steps in her musical evolution, proving that she is unafraid to push boundaries and explore uncharted territories,” the New Jersey-based Tom told Caribbean Life.
He said the combination of electric guitar instrumentation and Jada’s captivating Jamaican patois creates “a fresh and engaging fusion of modern dancehall and rock.
“The anthemic chorus, along with her infectious melodies, allows the song to shine as both a pop-punk anthem and a powerful commentary on a controversial topic that Jada, known as TWINKLE, felt compelled to address through her music,” Tom said.
He said “G.A.D.” arrives just weeks following the success of “Only You” and Jada’s hit “Can’t Tell Me That,“ which has been celebrated far and wide—including being featured on Spotify’s “Fever” playlist, Tidal’s “Dancehall Massive” playlist, and Pandora’s “Dancehall Queen” playlist, among many other accolades.
Tom said Jada Kingdom is gearing up for the highly anticipated release of her next project, the long-awaited follow-up to her 2022 EP, New Motion.
“With even more surprises just around the corner, it’s undeniable that this year is set to be monumental for the incredibly talented Miss Jada Kingdom,“ he said.
