Fast-rising Jamaican pop sensation Samantha J has revealed that she is excited to come and perform in Kenya in a new interview with Kiss 100 FM. The “Tight Skirt” singer said that she's been working hard to get out more music and will be entertaining her Kenyan fans soon.

“I plan to come to Kenya, but right now I am focusing on releasing more music so that I can come there and make the best concert I could ever do. I am planning a video for my next single already. Next month — late August — I’m gonna shoot that video in Norway. The next single is likely to be called called “Rockets” and was produced by the Norwegian super team of Erik and Kriss. I’m working on releasing a new song every three months as I am on a new record deal so I have the ability,” she revealed.

Samantha has been riding high with her new smash hit single “Baby Love” featuring American Grammy Award winning R. City, an American musical duo hailing from St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The two recently topped the world charts as part of a collaboration with Maroon 5 lead vocalist Adam Levine.

The 20-year-old star gave exclusive details about her collaboration with globally acclaimed producer RedOne (Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj) on the song. She didn't expect to work with him for so long and he actually cancelled a family vacation to work with her.

“Initially it was supposed to be a one hour meeting. I met with him and it turned into working for two weeks! In those two weeks, we came up with like eight songs and “Baby Love” was one of our favorites. We did the video in Malibu. I am so excited that it’s out now and I can’t wait to hear what my Kenyan fans will say,” she said.

RedOne is known for producing some of the biggest pop songs of the last decade, including the 2016 hit song “Don't You Need Somebody” on which he featured Enrique Iglesias, R. City, Serayah and Shaggy.

“An album? No…I can say that I have a lot of singles that I’m releasing. I’ll do an album when I feel comfortable where I feel like everyone knows me through my music and I have a sound that people all over the world can hear. People just wanna hear my original music; my whole body of work. An album is gonna come but right now I wanna give you hits and hits and hits,” she added.
