Jamaican genre-blending dancehall sensation Projexx is back with a bang as he releases his latest single "Top Speed" featuring British rapper Giggs and rising artiste, Marksman. The highly anticipated track, a perfect banger for the summer, has already made its debut on Seani B's show on BBC1XTRA.
"Top Speed" showcases Projexx's unparalleled talent and delivers the infectious energy he is known for. With his sleek and dancefloor-ready sound, Projexx effortlessly handles the chorus, delivering it with a delightfully sly delivery while expressing the particular likes and dislikes of his love interest. British rapper Giggs adds his signature firebrand energy to the track, electrifying it with clever bars and playful one-liners. The emerging star from Jamaica, Marksman, brings his unique style to wrap up the song, completing the powerful collaboration.

The visually stunning video sets the stage for a breakthrough year for Projexx, as he prepares to release more exciting music in the near future.
"I wanted to produce something different and unusual, so I was in the studio experimenting with Nate and Tyree when they came up with the beat. I was freestyling until I found the first line 'Bimma inna top speed.' I hit up Marksman on IG and told him he’d be dope on the song, so I flew to Jamaica to shoot the video with him, and that’s when Giggs sent his verse and the rest is history," Projexx shares about the track.
"Top Speed" follows Projexx's monumental success in 2021 and 2022, where he released his last project, 'Queen Hill'. The EP garnered significant attention with standout tracks such as "Sidepiece," showcasing Projexx's ability to blend genres seamlessly. His previous hit, "Bigga League," a boundary-smashing collaboration with Bakersteez, documented his rise to prominence as the music video captured his takeover of Jamaica's National Stadium.
With the release of "Top Speed," Projexx sets the stage for his most promising year yet. Stay tuned for more exciting music and announcements from Projexx in 2023.
