Hip hop artistย Lord Abstract, who hails from Lansing, Michigan and lives in Nashville, Tennessee, has an affinity for Jamaican dancehall music. For his new songย โBody Hotโย (out today viaย Tuff Gong International), the rapper went straight to the source to tap two of genreโs leading icons, including the legendaryย Beenie Manย andย Mr. Lexx.

The song is off the brand new Hostile Takeover riddim created by Jamaicaโs veteran producersย Jermaine โLenkyโ Edwardsย andย Norman โBulpusโ Bryan. It is mixed byย Tony “CD” Kelly, who is responsible for some of dancehall’s most popular hits in the โ90s, โ00s and arguably of all time.
โIt’s an absolute honor to work alongside Reggae legends like Beenie Man and Mr. Lexx. And to be produced by Norman “Bulpus” Bryan and mixed by the great producer Tony “CD” Kelly, it is like a dream come true,โย states Lord Abstract.
The single is already making an impact on North America’s commercial radio, receiving spins on stations WDKX (Rochester), WJMN (Boston), WZMX (Hartford), WEDR (Miami), HOT 97 (NYC), POWER 105 (NYC), HOT 99.1 FM (Albany), CHOICE FM (North Carolina), HOT 94.1 (Daytona), FLOW 98.7 (Toronto) and overseas on BBC 1XTRA (London) and CAPITAL RADIO (London).
Lord Abstract will perform on Sat April 9th, 2022 at theย Spring Bling 2022 festivalย in Rochester, NY amongst some of the Caribbeanโs top acts. For tickets and more information visitย here.
