Thesarus gets philosophical with ‘Who Knows’

Dancehall artiste Thesarus addresses the fragility and complexities of human life with his haunting new single, Who Knows.

“I did this song just to highlight the uncertainty and the unpredictable aspect of life! Nobody knows what tomorrow has up its sleeve,” Thesarus said.

Thesarus asks important philosophical questions as he sings who knows how tomorrow stay/if we ah go live to fight another day/if we ah go need to find another way out.

“We see through a glass darkly, we cannot see the future or divine what is going to happen. That’s why it is important to make the most out of each day by doing the things that you love with the people who truly matter,” he reasoned.

The single, produced by US-based independent label McDonz Records, was released a few weeks ago. The young deejay said that the audio of the track has generated a lot of buzz and positive feedback.

“The Who Knows video will be out soon and the work never stops. So it’s just work work work!” Thesarus said.

With his witty wordplay, Thesarus pulls listeners into the emotional core of his music with songs such as Loyalty and A King’s Dream that are sneakingly complex and awaken the inner consciousness.

A King’s Dream, a gem of a song decrying inner-city violence, featuring striking visuals which amassed more than 23,000 views since its release last year.

He grew up in the Franklyn Town area and attended Clan Carthy High school where he excelled in technical areas, as well as English literature. His peers encouraged him to pursue music because of his clever wordplay and street swagger.

After high school, he released his first official single, Feel Good, in April 2017. He inked a recording deal with US-based McDonz Records last year.

Since that time, he has continued to hone his craft and he is working on an album which will be released later this year.
