Jamary ‘John Justin’ Irish, also known as DetalMusiq, is a well-known Saint Vincent and the Grenadines artiste better known for the songs “Gvnman City“, “World Corrupt” and “Toxic Alike”.
When Josh Williams, CEO of ChapMove Records, ventured into music production, he envisioned releasing music that transcended time while impacting various demographics. Today he is one step closer with the release of Toxic Alike. The song was recorded by recording artiste Detal and released just a few weeks before the music video started shooting.
The song is a joint project between JJW Productions and Dre Soundz.
“I had a good feeling about Toxic the moment Detal contacted me and gave me an acappella demo. A few weeks after its release, Detal told me Diamond Music was on board to do a music video, and today the song is definitely a favorite worldwide. It has always been my goal to produce music of this eminence in dancehall, and I am thankful for everyone who worked overtime on this project and continues to make it a success,” said Josh. Toxic Alike was released on January 23rd.
When Detal was asked about the single, he shared, “Toxic Alike was magical from the get-go. The lyrics came to me before I got a beat, and that’s when I realized I had a hit on my hands.” He also explained how Diamond Music got involved in the project with the music video.
“Diamond Music is uniquely talented, and when he made the call to shoot a video for my song, I was more than happy to let him add his own style to it. I remember him being in school and speaking about my songs to other students and teachers and suggesting they help me in my career, and he kept his word and is doing exactly so at no cost.
