Imagine that you’re a young, up-and-coming artist, just out here trying to put out your music and make a name for yourself. Next thing you know, you’re in the studio putting down vocals for a track featuring one of the biggest dancehall artists in the world.<\/p>\n

That was pretty much the case for Xone<\/a><\/strong>. Fresh off of a successful first Carnival season this year, he went back into the studio on his birthday to lay down some vocals for a new track. Unbeknownst to him, his producer Anson Pro<\/a><\/strong> (‘Workout’<\/a><\/strong>, Kes and Nailah Blackman, ‘Memory’<\/a>,<\/strong> Machel Montano and Tarrus Riley, ‘Bring The Beat’<\/a><\/strong>, Machel Montano and Tessanne Chin) was putting together a collaboration for him and dancehall hit-maker\u00a0Vybz Kartel. Pro had gotten Kartel’s recording from producer ZJ Sparks<\/a><\/strong> out of Jamaica two years ago and, after Xone’s vocals were added, ‘Vices’ was created.<\/p>\n

The track was so well received one of the writers for WizKid sent additional lyrics for the song. As far as ultimate birthday presents go, getting a song with Vybz Kartel is pretty much up there.<\/p>\n
