This is a track released by Romania’s national singer, INNA, in collaboration with Dhurata Dora and Stefflon Don.

Intence is an artist gaining popularity in Jamaica’s reggae scene.

Because his global recognition is still limited, even people familiar with reggae may not know him.

His sound blends dancehall with trap music, giving it a strong hip-hop edge, and he’s popular among Jamaican youth.

That distinctive style is clear in “Yahoo Boyz” as well, so it’s recommended for hip-hop fans too.
