Shaggy & Sting Celebrate Sound System Culture On New Single “Til A Mawnin”

The song, which reimagines Henry ‘Junjo’ Lawes’ “I’m Not Getting Crazy” riddim, drops this Thursday alongside a video

Following the Grammy Award for their collaborative album, 44/876, music icons Sting and Shaggy are back with “Til A Mawnin” – a new single and music video that celebrate one of the pillars of reggae culture: Sound-System. The pair’s latest release, out February 27 via a partnership between Shaggy’s Ranch Entertainment and VP Records, takes listeners through the rich roots of reggae, blending Sting’s signature melodic style with Shaggy’s dynamic flow to create a fusion of old-school reggae vibrations and contemporary flair.

With this track, the duo, both managed by Martin Kierszenbaum at the Cherrytree Music Company, pay homage to the Sound System culture that helped fuel reggae’s global influence, while the accompanying music video – directed by Jay Will – brings this tribute to life, offering a visual celebration of reggae’s enduring legacy.

Written by Shaggy, Sting & Henry “Junjo” Lawes, “Til A Mawnin” is a re-lick of the “I’m Not Getting Crazy” Riddim, originally produced by Lawes with backing by the legendary Roots Radics Band. The riddim has been the foundation for several classic reggae tracks, including Don Carlos’ “I’m Not Crazy,” Frankie Paul’s “Worries in the Dance,” and Yellowman’s “Getting Married.” Shaggy, alongside Shane Hoosong, produced this updated version, bringing new energy while preserving the essence of its dancehall roots.

The new track was mixed by 4-time Grammy Award winner, Robert Orton and mastered by Gene Grimaldi at Oasis Mastering.

On March 13, Sting and Shaggy will co-headline the Reggae Rise Up Festival – one of the largest and most anticipated reggae festivals in the country – in St. Petersburg, FL.
