The announcement also came with the cover art for the project which is a photo of the duo in a studio setting. It is produced through Bolt’s A-Team Lifestyle label.
Since retiring from the track in 2017, Bolt has kept busy by charting a new path into music. He has several major projects under his belt such as Olympe Rose riddim which featured the likes of Ding Dong, Munga Honorable, and others.
He followed that up with the Immortal Riddim and his latest effort, Clockwork came out earlier this year.
While basically establishing himself as a duo with NJ, he has still teamed up with the likes of Dexta Daps, former football star, Ricardo ‘Bibi’ Gardner, singer Christopher Martin as he continues to release new projects.

Recently, Bolt expressed his appreciation for the support he has been receiving. “Mi just come inna music and mi like how oonu a gimme a energy,” he said in a video as he thanked his fans following the release of ‘It’s A Party‘.
