Konshens Opens Up About 'Bruk Off Yuh Back' Success, Dancehall's Future & Stigmas of Depression

Konshens has stood firm as one of the most influential dancehall artists to catapult to international stardom ever since his "Pon Di Corner" debut in 2005. And like his peers Vybz Kartel, Mavado, Popcaan and Sean Paul, the Kingston, JA native is officially ready to reach even higher (and more mainstream) heights.

The dancehall star, who is currently enjoying the success of his "Bruk Off Yuh Back" tune, opened up to Fuse about the struggles he's endured throughout his musical journey, attacking the American market and the importance of one's mental health. Konshens recently signed to a record label for the first time (EMPIRE Records, to be exact) and is eyeing more longevity with "Bruk Off Yuh Back" thanks to a new version with Chris Brown that is now the official single.
