Versi Ignores Controversy and Releases New Video

After changing his moniker from ‘Versatile’ to ‘Versi’ and purging a few fake friends from his coterie, Dancehall artiste Versi says the recent overhauling exercise appears to have lifted a great burden off his shoulder as he feels a greater sense of freedom annexed to a noticeable boost in both his career and online presence.

The Mountain View based deejay explained that his latter action was also the impetus for the single ‘3 Card Man’ which continues to do well for him across the diaspora. Intent on seeing the song achieving its full potential, the artiste has enlisted the services of noted videographer Damaniac Visualz to shoot the official video which premiered on his Vevo Channel Wednesday.

Since the song’s release, speculations have been rife about who it’s aimed at. However, preferring to keep the vibe around the song positive as a form of encouragement to those dealing with ‘fake friends’, Versi said he will not give any credence to those speculations.

“Some people believe the song is aimed at a specific individual but the truth it’s just a real song talking about real issues that we all face in life.” – He said.

On the subject of his revised name, Versi added, “Changing my name was one of the best decisions I have ever made, now more people are able to find me and my content online and that is even more evident with the number of subscription and views I’ve received in recent months. My songs are definitely getting increased streams and radio rotations and for that I am grateful and lastly look out for the ‘3 Card Man’ video premiering very soon.”

Known for songs such as ‘Wanted’ and ‘The Voice’ the latter featuring Bounty Killer, Versi says he is pleased with the current direction of his career and will be making every effort to amplify his presence as the year draws to a close.
