King told the Jamaica STAR that “it was not the easiest” feat to compile an album focussing on all the emotions that he had been experiencing. “It wasn’t easy doing it, where me disabled in a way. It’s just something I wanted to do for myself. It wasn’t easy…just know that,” he had said in an interview.
King, 27, whose real name is Matthew Smith, came to prominence in 2018, and is known for songs like Tuff, How Me Grow, and Ruption.
