Up-and-coming sing-jay Flash Raggedy said he is pleased with the growth of his music career since making his debut.
According to the entertainer, whose real name is Miguel Beckford, his recently released single ‘Dem Nuh Real” has been receiving favorable responses all over the world. The track was produced and distributed by TMD Records in England. “It’s a song that everyone can relate to. It speaks about pretentious persons around you, who seem to wish you well but really want to see you fail. Also, it has a catchy chorus with an upbeat Riddim,” the 25-year-old said. A video has been shot, which was premiered by Hype TV, which is the premier of platforms that showcase upcoming talents in Jamaica. Since then, it has been getting many great reviews, and the viewership on YouTube is growing rapidly.
