"There are more tracks and videos to come. I was abroad for most of the year and came back in summer and a mad ting me deh pon without apology," he said.

Last year, the Monster Empire learnt first-hand about KipRich's clash skills. Following riveting performances at Sting and Follow Di Arrow, KipRich went on to sign a US recording contract which had him recording in the US for months, followed by shows across the states and Africa.

A jus my ting dat, fi talk di tings dem in a honest way," he said.
