The Sniper Gang rapper honors his Haitian roots in his latest single following the release of the JACKBOY album.
A proud member of the bustling Haitian community in his native Pompano Beach, FL, Jackboy always stands up for his heritage and hometown. Continuing his tradition of dropping new songs on Haitian Flag Day, Jackboy shares “Spittin Facts,” his latest missive. A fierce statement of loyalty to his close friends and family, “Spittin Facts” finds the young rapper alternating aggression and emotion with soaring melodies and clipped cadences. Directed by Shula The Don, the “Spittin Facts” video opens with a brief snapshot of poverty and protest in Haiti, and continues into Jackboy’s South Florida apartment, where he raps in front of the Haitian flag. Bringing a celebratory spirit to quarantined Haitians forced to observe their holiday indoors, “Spittin Facts” is Jackboy’s first new song since the release of JACKBOY, his new project.
Featuring production from Tay Keith, Kid Hazel, Go Grizzly, TNTxD, and more, JACKBOY showcases the artist’s diverse musical preferences, including influences from Adele and Ed Sheeran. The album’s instrumentals range from the minimalistic “Zombie World” to the East Asian-inspired “Freedom Of Speech” and the energetic synth-driven “Hate The B!tch.” The project inspired a long list of successful video singles, including clips for “1K” (746k YouTube views since its release last week), “Pack A Punch” (1.2 million views), “Won’t Understand” (2.3 million views), “Cleaning Crew” (3.6 million views), and breakout hit “Pressure” (9.5 million views). With the inclusion of the Kodak Black collaboration “Like A Million,” JACKBOY has become the artist’s most successful album to date. It has propelled the rapper to the Top 300 of Rolling Stone’s Artist chart and pushed his monthly listener count on Spotify beyond 1.1 million.
