The visual for Freddie McGregor’s “Go Freddie Go’ has premiered today on entertainment site AXS.

Filmed at a couple’s resort in Negril Jamaica, the video shows shots of Freddie as the captain of his ship in the bright blue sea’s while various faces are shown singing along to the song. He is also seen performing on stage and engaging with locals as the video flashes to footage of various times in his career.
The song was produced by Lincoln Thomas for Linkgitz Production and written by Freddie McGregor with Lincoln Thomas and Kemar Williams. The lyrics embody self-conviction that whatever is thrown his way, he can handle, as Freddie sings “I’m moving much faster, And I make nothing stop me, because Freddie always ready…”

“Go Freddie Go, is truly a musical chronology of my life and career through my experiences, my journey and my legacy,” said Freddie of his new single. “I thank my fans for making this song #1 in NY and Florida. You have been with me through the ups and downs…this song is for you,” McGregor concluded.
