In addition to featuring some of Jamaica’s Dancehall heavy hitters, also making the cut is Ghanaian Dancehall and Afropop artiste, Stonebwoy.

‘Live N Livin’ features a total of 16-tracks, 15 collaborations, and 1 solo track. The album is produced by Sean Paul’s Dutty Rock Productions team and is distributed by the digital distribution platform, ONErpm.
