KINGSTON, Jamaica – In a significant musical partnership, Jamaican dancehall artist Flippa Moggela (professionally known as Flippa Mafia) has joined forces with acclaimed lyricist Chronic Law to deliver a powerful new single titled ‘Like This.’ The track is rapidly gaining traction across both domestic and international airwaves, establishing itself as a potential anthem within the genre.
The collaboration finds both artists adopting a contemplative stance, using their verses to articulate the personal challenges posed by envy and negativity from others. Flippa Moggela emphasized the song’s universal appeal, noting that its theme resonates with a broad audience facing similar interpersonal struggles. ‘My music is always rooted in authenticity, which is why my fanbase remains so dedicated. This song addresses the universal challenge of overcoming envious individuals and the pitfalls they create,’ he stated, also praising Chronic Law’s significant contribution to the project.
Produced under the collaborative banner of Flip Money Records and VX Records, the single is featured on the ‘Mix Feelings’ riddim, a rhythm that also hosts works from other prominent artists like Jahmiel, Nhance, and Tishaine.
Explaining his decision to release his own juggling—a classic dancehall practice of featuring multiple artists on a shared rhythm—Flippa Moggela cited a deep-seated commitment to cultural preservation and artistic entrepreneurship. ‘Growing up, I listened to jugglings; they are an integral part of our dancehall heritage. I am dedicated to upholding the rich legacy established by my predecessors, which includes providing a platform for other talented artists. From a business perspective, producing your own music is also a strategic move,’ he explained.
The alliance between the two artists was facilitated by none other than dancehall superstar Popcaan. Flippa Moggela revealed that Popcaan initiated the connection, which was originally intended for a live performance at his Evolution concert. Although scheduling conflicts prevented that appearance, the introduced link between the artists flourished, resulting in a seamless and impactful studio collaboration that Flippa described as perfectly synergistic.
