On “Majesty,” the Jamaican singer-songwriter Chronixx pays respect to all the queens in this beautifully orchestrated interpretation of the Jamaican singer Otis Gayle’s 1971 Studio One classic ‘I’ll Be Around” (originally sung by the ’70s soul group The Spinners).
In the video (directed by Che Kothari and Chronixx), the singer serenades his love in a dreamy scenario, set in a rustic cabin surrounded by the lush Jamaican scenery of Strawberry Hill Together in the parish of St. Mary. “Majesty” will serve as the first visual from Chronixx debut album Chronology (slated for early 2017 release) and is also included on the Spanish Town-native’s recent mixtape Roots and Chalice with NYC-based Federation Sound, which dropped earlier this year.
“There’s something about you, girl / And I don’t think it’s just your smile / I don’t know how to say it now / I’ve been thinking for a while / The best way to say it, woman / Your energy is right, yeah (so right),” Chronixx sings.
