New York, NY – Global dancehall superstar Konshens returns with an electrifying new single titled BDAUP (Back Dat Azz Up), set to release May 16 via Submachine Entertainment/FTS Global Management/ADA Worldwide. The track is built on the legendary beat made famous by Juvenile’s classic hit, with hip hop mogul Birdman personally sending the instrumental to Konshens’ team -inviting him to infuse it with authentic dancehall energy.
The moment came while Konshens was recording at Hit Factory Studios in Miami and having a heated discussion about the versatility of raw dancehall music.
“Papa Keith and I were in the middle of an argument that raw dancehall can fit on any beat and work. We loaded up and I just let loose whatever came to my head. The whole station went crazy. What you’re hearing is literally exactly what we did that morning, 100% authentic
DANCEHALL lyrics – the demand was so heavy we had to reach out to Birdman for the original.” – Konshens
“BDAUP” stands as a bold, unapologetic statement: real dancehall can hold its own anywhere – even over one of hip-hop’s most iconic beats.
With over 1 billion global streams, Konshens remains a powerhouse in dancehall culture with his signature blend of grit, melody, and cultural pride. Known for hit anthems like “Gal a Bubble”, “Bruk Off Yuh Back”, and “Do Sumn”, he continues to push boundaries while staying true to his roots.
