Royalty Statements - FOCUSED (feat. Tifa)
Producer duo Royalty Statements are known for their dynamic and eclectic music, heavily rooted in their Caribbean cultures. The combination of DUMI’s Haitian background and SOIGNÉ’s Dominican Republic culture, along with a core group of collaborators from all around Latin America, has helped the two build a signature sound that encompasses a variety of genres like Hip Hop, Konpa, Dancehall, Soca and Dembow. "FOCUSED" is a fun and Caribbean-inspired track highlighting the hard work, determination, and sacrifice it takes to excel. The song features vocals from Jamaican artist Tifa, one of the top female deejays in the Reggae and Dancehall space.
