Konshens\u2019 latest single \u201cTake a Shot\u201d, sees the dancehall singer in familiar territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Described as a \u201cbad girl banger\u201d, the song, like his past hits \u201cGal a Bubble\u201d, \u201cBruk Out\u201d and \u201cGal Dem a Talk\u201d, gives women a reason to showcase their wild sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201dTake a Shot\u201d is one of the songs on Konshens\u2019 new album Red Reign, out on November 12. While the album contains a variety of sounds, Konshens believes it is important for him to satisfy the needs of those who look to him for specific music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt can feel repetitive but there are some people who depend on you to make the soundtrack for their life, to make them happy. You can show your versatility but don\u2019t leave the people who have been with you behind,\u201d he told Loop news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Putting people first has been Konshens\u2019 focus since he experienced Trinidad and Tobago\u2019s Carnival in 2019 as an active participant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While he has performed as a guest at fetes and Soca Monarch, that year was the first time in his life he actually partied anywhere and he was blown away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMe definitely understand how people feel consuming music and how it makes people feel. I remember being on tour and seeing people in a line wrapped around the venue and I was like which person would make me do that?\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said now, he is thinking even less about his image when he creates a song.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
