Queen Ifrica and Kafinal —

JUNO award winner Kafinal has teamed with Queen Ifrica for his latest song, Talk or No Talk.

Produced by Sing and Act Entertainment, the single is expected to be released October 5. Kafinal said a real-life scenario inspired Talk or No Talk.

“Me and a close friend were talking about whether persons should reveal the details of the cheating acts of their respective spouse/girlfriend to their friend. The question became a debate about who would talk or not and this became the inspiration for the song,” Kafinal told the Jamaica Observer.

He said Queen Ifrica was brought in for a woman’s perspective.

“The debate needed a woman’s opinion. However, not just any woman. Preferably one whose opinions matter musically,” said Kafinal. “Everybody knows Queen Ifrica as a straight shooter. Given the concept of the song and story behind it there is no other artiste I could pair with on this project.”

Originally from Portmore, Kafinal (given name Jeffrey Williams) migrated to Canada more than 10 years ago. In 2016, he won Canada’s Juno Award for Best Reggae Recording for the song Nah Complain which features U-Roy.

His other songs include Nuh Lock Off Di Dance, Falling in Love, and Holiday.
