Popcaan’s much anticipated debut album, which is executive produced by Dre Skull, will be dropping on Mixpak during the Summer. On his new single ‘Everything Nice’, twenty-five-year-old Popcaan lays his trademark catchy melodies and controlled flow over a minimal riddim that lies somewhere between Dancehall and Hip-Hop. Delivering a reflective and casually nostalgic track on the balance of working hard and holding a meds, the song is dedicated to his fans and their struggles. As Poppy whiles his worries away, the track eventually melts with the vocal, leaving a bittersweet blissfulness. Watch the Jay Will directed video below, it features cameos from reggae icons like Gyptian, Jah Cure, Mavado and last but not least, rapper Ace Hood.
‘Everything Nice’ sets the tone for the LP, in name and nature. This is the first of a new palette of sounds and songs that carry Popcaan’s next chapter.
