Fans who have been eagerly clamoring for the “Perform and Done” video need to wait no longer as the lead single off “Strictly Roots” album will premiere on the esteemed online magazine Billboard. Produced by renowned BBC One/BBC 1Xtra’s Seani B and Don Chandler, the single became an instant success as it showcased a different side of Morgan Heritage who is renowned for their conscious and social musical commentaries.

Filmed on location at the weekly Mojito Mondays event in Kingston, Jamaica, director William Richards, managed to capture the essence of the song with a storyline reminiscent of the popular “Dancehall Queen” movie.
“This song is just an introduction to the creative approach we took with this album. Krystia Rhodes and the entire Image Development Studios team wrote a hell of treatment to highlight this creativity and the Director William Richards executed their vision perfectly. We’re really looking forward to the premier of this video.” – Morgan Heritage
