KINGSTON, JAMAICA - A collaboration for all ages, Delando
Colley and Black Mattic join forces on Better Place produced
by ZJ Elektra of Elektracute Music Group (EMG).
Better Place speaks about uplifting oneself and
others, despite the struggles which one goes through daily, the song encourages
everyone to not give up. In whatever field of work, one can agree
that to live each day is to survive and as such being alive is a blessing.
After being placed third in the Digicel
Rising Stars Competition in 2011 at the age of 16, Delando Colley sought to
follow his dream as an artiste and further his passion at the Edna Manley
College of Performing Arts. Fast forward to present year 2017, on the scene
with a few singles, Better Place seeks to re-introduce Delando
to Jamaica and the world with his catchy hook.
“I’m gonna take myself to a better place,
no matter how long it takes I will be fighting on the way…”
Black Mattic known for hits such as “Hero
Dance”, “3310 Rock” and “2lb sugar” has been working on his latest album “Press
Play”. He recently stated “This thing that we call the music industry is
very tricky and it can be complicated at times. Other musicians and djs
will try and stop your progress if they recognize how great your potential is.
I have experienced this first hand since the merger of OHMG, which
is my label and ZJ Elektra’s label EMG. I have no doubt Delando shares a
similar struggle with his musical journey. I believe this fight spreads
beyond music into all sectors. Despite this, they fail to understand that
this propels us to work harder and smarter. Better Place will
serve as a motivational song for our peers as this was our intended message.”
Nevertheless, Delando Colley and Black
Mattic both recognize that this world needs more love, more patience, more
strength, more forgiveness, more optimism, more humility, more understanding,
more education, in a nutshell, this world needs a Better Place.
