Jamaican artist Shane O seems to have broken his drought with his latest single "Dark Room" which has topped this week's Dancehall Global Top40 Chart.
The song which was shot into low orbit on the back of a DJ Khaled IG endorsement, is enjoying a streaming frenzy online.
On Spotify the single harvested close to 50,000 streams in the last four days to pull in a running total of 79,000 streams, and has hauled in 1.7 million youtube views since its release five months ago, 115,000 of which were generated in the 48 hours after DJ Khaled's IG endorsement of the single which was released in mid Feburary 2022.
Shane O made his debut at the tender age of 12, with the song "School Is Important" in 1999. By 2002 he was a feature on tracks with the likes of Chuck Fender, Wayne Marshall, and Lenn Hammond.
By the time he graduated high school in 2004, Shane O was a household name, and a goto feature artist for some of the industry's biggest superstars of the time.
But just as quickly as he came, he disappeared. It was not until 2019 that Shane O would signal his return to the studio with the aptly titled track "Rising".
Over the last two years Shane O has been on a feverish recording pace that has finally reaped the artist a diamond in the rough.
