Koffee IS BACK! She has released a new single and video, marking her return after a couple of years away from the music scene. Fans have been waiting patiently, but her absence was due to a few factors, including a period of mental health challenges and contract issues with her previous label, RCA.
We still get that signature Koffee feel and vibe, but something is different this time. There’s a new energy coming from her—a more confident, mature, and almost rebellious vibe. I love this “new” Koffee, and the chorus says it all:
“I be in my P’s all the way
When I pull up, you know the time of day, yeah
And it’s a coffee wid the K
Some call me Mikayla
I’m still Koffee when they wake up, boyeah
Getting to the paper, clean nuh need no makeup
Ain't nobody greater, yeah
I'm the baddest thing outta Jamaica, yeah.”
The video starts with Koffee stepping out of her house and jumping into her car, with Masicka playing on the radio. While this song is about Koffee asserting her dominance and letting everyone know she’s still on top, she also gives a shoutout to Masicka:
“I know they say they hit but this cup a Koffee, hippa
They proper coffee sippers, I ain't talking basic pickups
I almost drop my liquor, ‘cause right now nobody sicker
Except the one Massicka, I tell my dawgs go sick ‘em.”
There’s such confidence radiating from her throughout the video and song—it’s truly refreshing to see. She’s driving around in her sports car, smiling and waving, showing off her closet full of gear. Koffee has her own unique style and isn’t afraid to flaunt it. We see her dancing, having fun in the back of a pickup truck, and most importantly, smiling the entire time. She’s letting us know she’s better now and ready to take on the world.
“Wavier than the seven seas
I'm giving all these energies and singing all the melodies
Weh a mash up dem head
I'm trynna be a better me, not the way you remember me
I left that in the cemetery, that side of me is dead
I said what I said, I get out of bed
Make sure it spread then wash mi dreads
Keep my body fed, balance me the spirit hold a meds
Do that pon di regs, I could never be misled
Banish bad mind I said a prayer and they fled, aye
Bun Babylon the fire red.”
It’s so great to have Koffee back, and now we wait eagerly for more!
One Love – Todd M. Judd
