Jamaican international producer Minto Play Da Riddim collaborates with rising Afrobeat star Kid AlpHa on the infectious jam “Intoxicated.”
Minto Play Da Riddim’s reputation precedes him; he is an internationally renowned music producer based out of Jamaica whose fame skyrocketed following his collaboration with dancehall artist Skillibeng on the track “Run. He has also worked with notable figures within the realms of dancehall, such as Popcaan, Vybz Kartel, and Charly Black, just to mention a few. Kid AlpHa has been swiftly and rightfully gaining recognition across the global scene ever since he debuted with the chart-topping single “Price Tag” which went on to elevate him to international acclaim. Born in Lagos and bred in the UK, the artist combines the rich tapestry of both his upbringing and cultures to create an afro-fusion sound that is perfected by his melodious and rich vocals.
As evident, “Intoxicated” really is what happens when two phenomenally gifted artists and musicians come together, each recognizing what the other is worth. Fireworks were sparked here in what is an addicting and hypnotic ‘feel-good’ banger that boosts the mood in any type of setting.
Minto Play Da Riddim’s top-notch production is a seamless fit with Kid AlpHa’s velvety, slinky, and sweet-sounding vocals. His production sets the stage for AlpHa’s vocals, and the end result is something you can’t get enough of.
A track that is all about the good vibes and good times, especially with that person you love, “Intoxicated” is an invitation to get on the dance floor, look your significant other straight in the eyes, hold them by their waist, and dance joyfully to the rhythm.
Beyond its commercial appeal and technical excellence, more than its commercial appeal and excellent technical dexterity, “Intoxicated” is a huge testament to the boundless creativity and versatility of the producer Minto and showcases his willingness to experiment with different sounds and stamp his indelible imprint on unique sounds.
This track is also a stunning display of high-caliber musicianship by Kid AlpHa as both a songwriter and musician. With this new project, his global evolution is set to reach greater levels than ever!
“Intoxicated” is what you might call the ‘perfect collaboration!’ I hope that this is the first of many collaborations from this deadly duo, who exude such undeniable chemistry that you wouldn’t guess it’s their first collaboration ever!
