Anthony B recorded his vocal in Kingston in April 2010, as the the city broke out in riots capped off by the Tivoli Gardens extradition raid. Tensions were further heightened by a drought that led to water supplies to many of Kingston's residents being cut off for days at a time. Anthony B linked with People's Records & Subatomic Sound in the studio and his eyes immediately lit up when the Senegalese drums of NYC-2-Africa riddim started to play. He and his crew began a classic African call and response chant to the beat and after listening to the riddim over and over on repeat, he demanded to go straight into the studio and delivered a blistering performance, waiving his lighter and literally jumping off the walls of the vocal booth while singing.
