He’s already released a handful of singles from the album, including “nuthin i can do is wrong” and “Stop Worry!“, which features dancehall legend Sister Nancy. Today, the full album is available to hear in its entirety via digital providers. Hear it below. He’s also shared a new video for “No Curse Lifted (Rivers of Love)”, which you can check out below as well.
