On “Boasty,” Masicka takes a hard-earned victory lap. Hi-hats accent a smooth and slick beat as he flaunts his signature cadence. The track rides his upbeat flow into the upswing of an undeniable chorus punctuated by fire and flavor. Helmed by director Shane Creative, the accompanying visual channels this energy on-screen. Masicka holds court in a luxurious and lavish mansion as well as at a packed nightclub. Still, he never forgets where he came from. The clip alternates between these moments of celebration and vignettes of the star back where it all began in a small Jamaican town.

With “Boasty,” Masicka looks back on his journey while continuing to push forward, building on his growing global reach.

Plus, it arrives on the heels of the buzzing “Life Of Sin.” Gathering nearly 1 million YouTube views on the official music video, this introspective slow-burn instantly resonated with fans. Not to mention, it garnered looks from the likes of V13, Caribbean Today, and more.

Remaining prolific, “Life Of Sin” landed in the wake of 2025’s Her Name Is Love EP. Thus far, the latter has gathered north of 10 million streams and counting highlighted by “Rich Sex”[with Rvssian]. Right out of the gate, it also received widespread acclaim. Billboard hailed it as “a tender new EP dedicated to the ladies,” and Okayplayer applauded it as “a lighter, more loving atmosphere that still carries the edge that has defined his signature sound. A juxtaposition not previously seen from him until now.” Remixd Magazine christened it “one of the most introspective and intentional projects of his career,” and Live Music Blog noted, “the EP captures Masicka in a reflective space, showing range and maturity while remaining firmly rooted in dancehall’s core.”

Hitting another benchmark, Masicka garnered a nomination for “Best Caribbean Music Act” at the 2026 MOBO Awards aired on March 26^th at Co-op Live in Manchester, UK.

Now, Masicka is gearing up for what promises to be his brightest and biggest chapter yet.

Tanto Blacks returns as the ‘Rich Carpenter’ alongside Chris Gayle

2026-03-30T07:59:00.000+03:00

[Kingston, Jamaica - March 2026] The “Real Rich” dancehall artist known as Tanto Blacks returns to the music scene with his latest single titled ‘Rich Carpenter’. Released on February 5th by upcoming producer Polabeatz and RichBlood876 from the UK, ‘Rich Carpenter’ will have an accompanying music video which features former West Indies cricketer Chris Gayle.

The official music video is set to make an exclusive premiere on CVM TV’s Onstage program on Saturday, March 28th at 9pm local time. Tanto Blacks will also be making a special appearance signaling his return to the dancehall music scene.

Though previously known for his witty catch phrases, humor and gimmicks, Tanto Blacks approaches ‘Rich Carpenter’ with a different style and motivational message. The music video, however, expresses the outlandish and extravagant persona everyone knows and loves from Tanto Blacks. Chris Gayle adds his own influence and flair to the vibrant visuals that highlights and stays true to his lavish and “rich” lifestyle.

When asked about his connection to Chris Gayle, Tanto Blacks responded, “Chris is a longtime friend of mine. Our connection is real and built on loyalty. Having him in the ‘Rich Carpenter’ video felt natural because the song is about living authentically and building something meaningful.”

“I watch how people like Chris move from cricket to business and apply that same approach to my own life and music. ‘Rich Carpenter’ is about growth, elevation and becoming your own boss in a real way,” Tanto Blacks continued.

With management, production and overall support coming from Polabeatz and RichBlood876, Tanto Blacks now has a team that is committed to take him to another level in his career. After a highly publicized fall from off the stage during a performance which left Tanto Blacks feeling humbled, ‘Rich Carpenter’ provides a necessary reset to catapult his comeback in a more strategically calibrated manner.

RichBlood876 and Polabeatz explained, “This is a reset and a rise. Tanto Blacks is entering a new chapter, fully focused, motivated, driven and surrounded by the right team. ‘Rich Carpenter’ is just the beginning!”

Fans, old and new, can expect a consistent flow of music and content from Tanto Blacks on his social and streaming media platforms, reflecting his evolution while staying true to who he is.
