Jamaica’s own Protoje returns with a new reggae jam called “Can’t Feel No Way,” premiering exclusively on Billboard.
“Inspiration for this song came after my return to Jamaica, feeling so grateful to be healthy and strong after a long year of being on the road and touring consistently,” Protoje tells Billboard of the track, produced by Tracker John MD, a member of Protoje’s newly formed Indiggnation producer collective. “Can’t feel no way about any of this music business thing once you have those things.”
Protoje (born Oje Ollivierre) recently wrapped a stint on the West Coast, including a performance stop at Coachella, in support of his third album, 2015’s Ancient Future.
