His songs are high energy, with a dancehall rhythm, and the music business veteran has seen all the changes in the industry, and adapted his style in order to stay on top. His latest single, &#8216;456&#8217;, sees Amaze collaborate with Jamaican American artist, AG, aka Alexander Grant, whose voice is like no other.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">AG, Alexandar Grant, is a Jamaican-American artist with a voice like no other. Whether he\u2019s writing alone, working in the studio, or on set for a music video, AG is always hustling and striving to be the best.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although the Covid-19 Pandemic has restricted social gatherings worldwide, Dj Amaze and AG nonetheless know how to throw a party, no matter how intimate. For the music video for &#8216;456&#8217;, director Yikes Lee crafts a clip that&#8217;s the perfect match for the flavour-filled island track, and shows every step it takes from the creation process in the studio, to the staging of the music video itself. With a couple of girls wanting to party, and two artists whose very presence captures the gaze of the camera, it&#8217;s clearly been no hard task to make, and when AG sings, &#8220;drop it like a pro&#8221;, everyone knows instinctively what to do and how to do it well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Dj Amaze is online on his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.DjAmaze.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official website<\/a>, and you can watch the official music video for &#8216;456&#8217; below:<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_45849\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Sxz7cMuteeE?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Dj Amaze x AG - 456 (Official Video)\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Sxz7cMuteeE\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dj Amaze and AG collaborate on the new single, &#8216;456&#8217;, bringing a dancehall flavour to drag us out of the pandemic doldrums.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":67593,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[7,9,21453,21445,21446,21449,640],"tags":[26895,26894,26893,11720,77,370,1945,116,10677,81,22992],"class_list":["post-67590","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music","category-new-releases","category-new-singles","category-reviews","category-single-reviews","category-video-reviews","category-videos","tag-26895","tag-ag","tag-dj-amaze","tag-lisa-hafey","tag-new-release","tag-new-single","tag-new-video","tag-review","tag-single-review","tag-video","tag-video-review"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Dj-Amaze-press.jpg?fit=986%2C990&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p5yMhl-hAa","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":45964,"url":"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2019\/02\/be-free-manilla-dub-ft-addis-pablo-is-a-reggae-rhythmed-revelation-calling-on-us-to-be-free-to-be-who-we-want-to-be\/","url_meta":{"origin":67590,"position":0},"title":"&#8216;Be Free (Manilla) (Dub Ft Addis Pablo)&#8217; Is A Reggae Rhythmed Revelation Calling On Us To Be Free To Be Who We Want To Be","author":"Lisa Hafey","date":"05\/02\/2019","format":false,"excerpt":"'Be Free (Manilla)' is the first track on the Manilla Dub EP from Danzky.
