Lyrics:

Who knows Who knows Who knows
I just go where the trade wind blows
Sending Love to my Friends and Foes
And I suppose
I'm pleased to be chilling in the West Indies
Jah Provide All My wants and needs
I got the sunshine rivers and trees, Green Leaves.


When me see Jah me see a way
Drastically stray from Hypocrisy i say
Everyman to them owna philosophy
A Live the proper way, and them me read a chapter daily
Man deh Inner City hungry and no eat
And food deh down a country just a drop off a the tree them
You see say poverty no real then
Is what the reasoning revealing

When the rain pitter pat pon the roof
Herb just a steam pepper pon pon the stew
Life is a dream if you got gratitude 
So go tell the regime them can't stop weh we do now
Information you think on your own
Or else you're a slave to the things that you know
What do you know if you learn everyday?
So be careful of things way u say


Africa in a we soul
But a Jah in a we heart
It if of important say I&I gather
If we cannot show now a balance at we yard
How do We propose then to carry it abroad
Cannot Go to Ethiopia and you nuh have a plan
The building of a nation a hand a help a hand
Everyone one love a one
A man is just a man 
It shall be a coronation when we land

Just three years after Popcaan first stepped out in his Clarks as Vybz Kartel's protégé, he has quickly established himself as one of Jamaica's biggest artists. His distinctive voice, versatile style and positive energy has propelled him through summer smashes “Ravin” and “Party Shot,” pensive political tracks “The System” and “Dream,” and gallis anthems like “Only Man She Want.” Along the way, he's piled up tens of millions of YouTube plays, a Billboard Hot 100 hit and high profile collaborations with Snoop, Pusha T, and Busta Rhymes.

"Love Yuh Bad" is the second single off of Popcaan's much anticipated debut album, Where We Come From, which will be released on June 10th via Mixpak. Hot on the heels of the lead single "Everything Nice," this sultry and energetic second single is a love song for the dance. Produced by Dre Skull (who also serves as the album’s executive producer), "Love Yuh Bad" pairs Popcaan's signature melodiousness and catchy rhythmic flow with skipping percussion and driving strings. It wouldn't be a Popcaan album without a wining song and "Love Yuh Bad" fully delivers the goods.

Luve Yuh Bad

Popcaan - Love Yuh Bad (Produced by Dre Skull)

Where We Come From is the debut album from Jamaican superstar Popcaan. Executive produced by Dre Skull and featuring productions from Dre Skull, Dubbel Dutch, Jamie Roberts, Anju Blaxx and Adde Instrumentals, Popcaan's first full length offering sees his signature melodies and uplifting tones on thirteen original tracks. As musicologist Wayne Marshall writes,

“Where We Come From” gives voice, as the best reggae does, to the contradictions of life in a society rife with inequities and yet so rich. Whether odes to the ghetto or the good life, Popcaan's lyrics bring realist portraits and utopian visions into dynamic tension. Songs about struggle and sex and happiness occupy the same space because they do. And whatever the topic, Popcaan's infectious positivity comes through.”

ANSWER TO YOUR NAME

Like to tell you a story about a girl I know

Or should I say a girl I used to know

1971 inna England

Fresh off the plane to my dame inna Brixton

No, she never ask 'bout flight

Two month now no telegram write

Hey, she send taxi fi I

She gone a some house party tonight

So call me artical like

Make a few call get a couple invite

Inna the place me gone

Never leff Yard from the day me born

Right up front who me staring pon

You can tell say a she by the way she gwaan

Christine, Christina, Crystal

Try all a dem and she still never respond

Understand, catch a pree from a distance

Man hand gone inna pants fi a six-pance

Whoa! Tuff guys beside her

She naa reply when I say hi to her

So dem go try bring violence in the parr

Need I remind these kind that I nuh war

So me turn fi walk away

But a likkle voice in my head start talk to me

Tell me walk right pass her

To the sound, take the mic and ask her

Girl! Why don't you answer to your name?

Girl! Why don't you answer to your name?

And girl I know you see me

And you know I see you too

So what is it gonna be

Tell me what you wanna do

What's with this great mystery

After all that we been through

Now you're refusing to look my way, eh

My likkle darling

Know she stay so from morning

Where she grew was appalling

Want fi make it right so she take the flight

Heard the city lights calling

From the day she been crawling

All she hear bout is foreign

Say we a keep the link

Now wah me fi think see the plans dem sinking

Deep, new year reach

Accent gone pon all part a you speech

Don Gorgon dem u waa fi go meet

Like she be the real topanaris a street

Please, watch how me calmness a do it

Naa bat a lid, as a morning I leave

But how me fi walk right pass you miss

Haffi look inna you eye and ask you this

And I know you know what I'm talking about

Girl see you in the crowd and act like she don't know

But me naa take no stylin', no punkin' or no joke

(huh?)

Girl why you dweet (Girl why you dweet!)

Girl why you dweet (Girl why you dweet!)

No it no sweet (No it no sweet!)

No it no sweet (No it no sweet!)

Young, fit and gifted
And as we gather to take part in this ancient tradition



Chalice full of water, ashes you nuh see
Zuggu light the matches burn the stash inna Kutchie
Lucky say me have it so as it chop and reap 
Chucky say him have it him will go for 'cause of me
Nuff inna the duffel have it stuff you shoulda see
Rougher pon the government free up economy 
Make them know say it a carry healing property 
Stack it tree pon toppa tree and sip it like a cup a tea
I can remember how them puff it pon the lane
Dougie dread them set it yeah him a did one of them
First a did a Collie now a Kush a just the same
'Cause when time Sunday morning come a one thing a remain say it 



Bubblin', bubblin', bubblin'
Bubblin' over this morning, yeah yeah yeah



Me have the stash inna the back weh prettier than Mona Lisa
Fresh up out the freezer, love it when it keep so
Any politician say a coulda Hanna Lisa
Slave owner law, come tell me you nuh see it so 
Get up out you seat and do something for the people
Plan up and them gang up fi do wrong under the steeple
Mineral me creep to, strictly river water
Stash it in a charter fi bun it with me father
Him give weh the brawta nothing no change at all
Him tell me from the start so me know da world ya small
I can remember the days of Taylor Hall
Me, him and Damion Crawford, dem time the chalice used to


Jah9 say a steam, she put no fire to her green
Shell pon top of gritty as we sip it and agree 
Say these trees, at least, no come from overseas
Unlike them food them carry in weh full up a disease
Take a breeze, take a seat, take a piece
Deh beside the general but you can sit at ease
Make some memories and forget some memories
With family and friends and the friends a the family we

From the streets of Jamaica coming live and direct
Proto Diggy deh ya we nuh need no mic check
step inna the place no badda disrespect
Just a warn the Ghetto yutes about the choice wah dem a make BOOM

Ladi Dadi naa join nuh party
look wha the politician them do to Claudie
look wha the politician them do to Jim
him son resurrect it and look wah them do to him
cause them will use and dispose of you those who are close to you
if you choose to trod this road u nuh
so bredda bredda if you war tonight
carry the scars of a Garveyite
carry the fire of a Melchezideck
when you mind get a chance represent 
or you might a no pass the present so 
no take them class love you fast then resent you 
want make it fast so them lost every cent too
so we go back to the ancient ways untold secrets that remained unchanged
mentally get unchained a one goal a one aim a the same wah you saying

(Sevana)
Got to stay through to the things you know are right 
Nothing worth the gain you attain by Sudden Flight
Brother keep you goals in sight
even in the darkest night 
have faith in the father the one who shines your light

(Jesse Royal)
Mercy me dem corrupt and covetous eeh
cause from me eye deh a me knee a one thing natty a see
the intellect a prey upon the poor poverty 
nobody naa dance though a two party 
oppression brainwashing and nefarious schemes
to keep the have-nots where they think they ought to be
I man hear promises of better when the poll time close
then a back to the same after winner announce
rockstone a river bottom never know say sun hot
so many a me brother them trap inna  the plot 
glock full a shot but no food  inna pot 
a wa wa wah kinda livity that
I an I a holla straight up wake up wake up Sons of Jacob
lay down their arms real tools you fi take up
stay up way up sons of Jacob time to show the cowards what we made of

so you've made it tell me what’s the basis thinking its so basic
cruising in the A6
Naa thats an illusion in the matrix
when you miss the payments then they gon’ come and claim it
You have to be focused keep the brain fit keep the flame lit never twist it when you aim hit
so what i'm saying simple and it plain  it all look the same when it flushing down the drain
watch dem as dem strutting up the lane with the rope gold chain 
chrome suppin in a hand 
Look up pon dem face touch a button if you can 
just fi try take you place a no nothing fi dem man
but that no matter cause another come along
and a run the place badder hotter than the summer sun
boof i see the cycle a repeat playing god up in your palace
with disciples pon the street

WAKE THE TOWN

Wake the town with a righteous sound
Tell me who shall I fear while I walk on Jah righteous ground
Nowadays some of the wickedest witches dress Inna the whitest gowns
Take a pen and paper
And write this down

CHO
Well mi seh mi nuh like how certain man a Gwaan (not at all)
Well mi seh mi Nuh love how some woman a Gwaan (not at all)
Dem claim seh dem have love Inna den heart (oh lawd)
And as yuh turn yuh back dem start fi laugh (how dem laugh)
Cha la la la la la la la la (Bhim)
Cha la la la la la la la la (Bhim)

Mi nuh like it (No) when a gyal see a man a kill himself pon the night shift
Den she ball out str8 if yuh nah drive the new q8 she naaw get exited.

Born and grow a Jamaica
Fly go farin fi make di paper
Weh life still rough like a sand paper
Suh wah we never eat we save fi later
Why when I read the newspaper
All mi si a killer and teef and raper
Mi affi go fly dung one November
Fi talk about love Inna sweet Jamaica
Coz JAH know seh

CHO
Well mi seh mi nuh like how certain man a Gwaan (not at all)
Well mi seh mi Nuh love how some woman a Gwaan (not at all)
Dem claim seh dem have love Inna den heart (oh lawd)

VS2
Talk mi talk and all who nuh like when mi talk

Tell the truth mi seh the music a get too loo
Take it back to basic
Nuff a dem will tell yuh seh them lifestyle clean
But when you check it out it dirty
Nuff big woman don't have a 9-5
And dem quick fi show yuh 6-30

Clean words from a dirty mouth
Mi seh nuh really worth a penny when yuh work it out
Yuh affi walk with a torch
You affi search it out
Dem waan lock off yuh light
Trip yuh circuit out
And dem nuh waan yuh live good
Not even waan yuh get Weh di bird spit out
But I follow the order of the father
Suh yuh know seh yuh naah see me pon the dirty road.
Mi tell dem

CHO
Well mi seh mi nuh like how certain man a Gwaan (not at all)
Well mi seh mi Nuh love how some woman a Gwaan (not at all)
