Dancehall Artist Puts The “Spotlight” On New Single ‘Annie’

Dancehall deejay Spotlight Kunta impressed during his debut performance at Reggae Sumfest, at Catherine Hall Entertainment Complex in Montego Bay recently.

“It was a great experience for me, I went up there with my dancers and gave the patrons clear delivery and maximum energy. They sang along with me on ‘King and Queen’, and the great thing is that, my performance was broadcast over the radio, so it has given me a big push in the streets, and on social media, I won over new fans,” the lanky SpotlightKunta said.
The artiste, whose given name is Stennett Harris, has been doing music for over 15 years. Raised in the rural countryside of Linstead, St. Catherine, he migrated to the USA, where he is now a citizen, but continued to pursue his ambitions in music, while holding down a steady job. One of his most notable achievements of his early career was the song, ‘Guinness’, produced by Chester Walker, which spearheaded an ad campaign for the popular stout in Jamaica.

He plans to spend an extended time in Jamaica to push his career after the huge boost provided by his Reggae Sumfest debut. To this end, he has recorded a battery of new singles including ‘Kunta Bounce’ featuring Elephant Man, ‘King and Queen’ (Need Money) and the racy ‘Annie’, produced by Cornelius Daley of Cornelius Records, which is on The Ruler rhythm.

“Annie is definitely a hit. The song has taken over the airwaves, both locally and internationally. The people are responding well so we have decided to shoot a video for the song this month,” he said.

He said he has broken ground with his own unique sound.

“Spotlight Kunta can be easily identified and brings the vibe and style demanded from the people. Spotlight Kunta is exceptional and creative; an artiste who truly knows what he is about and what is expected of him as an artiste.”
