“The record has been doing well and this is encouraging, considering that we just started promotions,” Mojo Morgan said. “We are expecting big things from this project as we continue expand our brand to break into new markets.” Maliaka Lepine, the reggae band’s publicist, added that the single shows versatility since Morgan Heritage is mostly know for their roots reggae songs.
