Popular dancer-turned-recording artiste Cobourine has released the track Love Wi — the first song off his upcoming EP set for début in September.
Inspired by true events, the track features Brickxx and is produced by Sapposonic.
“When I let people hear it they mostly said that this one is more smooth, more calm, and more of an EP song,” he told the Jamaica Observer in explaining why he led with this track.
Many people around the world are familiar with Cobourine for his lead dance appearances in projects like Konshens’ Summer Wine, and other viral clips online. He also starred in Uhoh by US rapper Lil Mama.
As a vocalist, he has opened for recording artiste Upyanow (otherwise known as Shabba Pot) at an international staging of Alkaline’s New Rules show. He also gained notoriety from popular dancing competition Dancin’ Dynamites.
The entertainer, whose given name is Andre Cobourine, says he’s looking to establish himself as an artiste, building on the momentum he already got from dancing.
“Back in 2020 I took up music a little bit, then people started taking me seriously. A little situation happened that kinda set me back, but now I’m back and I’m trying to show people that it’s serious. Mi have the dancing talent, so mi ah try cross over to do the music,” he said.
He previously released several tracks, among them Got This and Impatient (featuring Qwanza).
