Neepz links with Kabasi on track

Coming from the birthplace of Calypso, Soca and the Steelpan, born and raised in Delaford on the island of Tobago, artist Neepz grew up surrounded by a culture that celebrates its legacy of dance and music. Having a passion for music and the arts instilled in him from an early age, Neepz would take influence from iconic Caribbean artists such as Ras Shorty I, Mighty Sparrow and Lord Kitchener as well as hip hop sensations like Nas and Wu Tang Clan, going on to flourish as a singer-songwriter, DJ and producer himself.

In 2012 he joined Los Angeles-based 1440 Entertainment and ventured out into the hip hop world offering his own reggae twist. Dropping a mixtape, he made his introduction before following up in 2015 with his breakout single “Mi Treasure”, a unique electronic Caribbean hip-pop track which won ‘Best Pop Video’ at the XMAs in Chicago that year.

Dropping a string of stellar singles over the last few years and working with a whole host of other talented artists, he now brings us his latest work with the new single titled “Soul Steady Rock”. This time collaborating with Kabasi, Neepz traveled from Los Angeles and headed to his hometown in Trinidad and Tobago to work with one of the nation’s leading artists, who is currently battling stage-4 cancer.

Written by Neepz with Kabasi in his thoughts who loved the demo as soon as he heard it, the pair linked up straight away to record the final version together. Capturing a joyous reggae vibe, with “Soul Steady Rock”, Neepz and Kabasi lay down a rhythmic jam dripping in sunshine on a stunning collaboration from two gifted and celebrated artists.
