Spanish Town born singing sensation D’yani; returns to earth with a vicious vengeance after the success of his single Heaven Telegram. D’yani teams up once again with veteran Dancehall selector/producer Rolexx for his new single Vengeance. The new single is accompanied by arresting visuals shot and directed by Damaniac that are sure to propel the songs potential reach exponentially. Damaniac, who identifies as a visual surgeon; cut and stitched the footage eloquently to help D’yani tell his tale about the dark side of reciprocity in love. Vengeance is the musical anecdote of a love grown cold. The song and visuals are introduced with a voice note of a woman in despair; expressing her detest that the treatment she is receiving in the relationship reflects a fall from grace. The emotive nature of the voice note gives the listener an insight into the fact that this is not going to be a “Baby I love you “ ballad.
D’yani who is usually known for his uplifting and positive lyrics; adopts a more edgy and aggressive writing style on Vengeance. This style of writing is absolutely appropriate for the theme of frustration in unrequited love he explores. As male marginalization positions itself as one of the most poignant socio-cultural issues in our Western society; this song is timely. Rolexx’s Productions and D’yani always thrive to create anthems whenever they collaborate. In the same vein that Heaven Telegram is an anthem for mourners, Vengeance will become an anthem for those disillusioned by love. It is duly important to dispel any criticism of the song that there are misogynistic undertones in the writing. In a Jamaican society poisoned by hyper-masculinity; constantly discouraging men from expressing their vulnerability and emotions; it is valiant of D’yani and Rolexx Production to facilitate that expressive freedom, through music for the fans.
