.@OfficialYaksta Highlights Consumerism In “Brandz Out”


Dancehall/Reggae Recording Artist Yaksta keeps the wheels in motion for his career, and being busy is an understatement. From releasing and promoting his debut album “22“, to performing on various stages locally and Internationally, to following up with new content, Yaksta and his team are handling business. For his latest single “Brandz Out“, he tackles another type of business.

Done in collaboration with Zach Staggers and Eitan Noyze a.k.a. Something D’Lux, Yaksta tackles consumerism, and the people who indulge in it. While many are slaves to name brands, he speaks about the ladies who own the scene when it comes to luxury fits. The accompanied music video was handled by Something D’Lux/Llama/Chris Elia, and it finds Yaksta in the roles of a Janitor at the Mall, and a consumer who can be seen shopping with the ladies. Sometimes it’s all about buying the brand you can trust, other times it’s all about keeping up with the Joneses, either way someone’s making the money. Ready for more Yaksta? Stay tuned for more in the coming weeks.

.@OfficialYaksta Shares His “Ambition” & Wise Words In New Video


When it comes to delivering “Message Music“, there are some artists who have it down to a science. In return, they have maintained a very long and rewarding career, and their lyrics make quite the impact generation after generation. For Recording Artist Yaksta, he’s no stranger for delivering that type of music, but today we see and hear a bit more from him in the video for his latest single, “Ambition“.

Shot by Dezignr Studios, Yaksta gets into “Bush Lawd” mode, and shares a few gems with the people over some Afro Boi Entertainment and Wuss Musikk production. When many artists focus on the luxurious living and share it in their songs, Yaksta looks to do the opposite here. With lyrics about having your own business, investing in Farming, Blockchain Technology, and Real Estate, and making life decisions that will be more of assets than liabilities, Yaksta is just doing his part in ensuring that his listeners young and old get motivated by his words, and help to build themselves and each other. Whether you see him in Farming gear, or donning a robe to collect his Degree, he promotes the idea of having ambition. Yaksta delivers his messages in the best way he knows how, and we know they will stay in the minds of many for years to come. Investments over braffing, stay focused, and take care of you and yours.
