Intence flexes in Palm Angel
Dancehall disruptor Intence brings his expensive tastes to New York City on his new flex anthem, Palm Angel.
On the track, produced by MXSSIVH (Trippie Redd, Skillibeng) and Waysett, Intence pushes his sound further afield, listing off his luxury brand preferences in the process.
Released July 28, via VP Records, Intence recorded the song during his first stay in New York City in early January.
The video, directed by KLO Visionz (Kay Flock, AJ Tracey) and dropped this month, features the Jamaican artiste roaming about NYC and sampling the local hospitality.
On his return trip in April, he made a few more stops.
In addition to packing his début US show at Club Amazura in Queens, he passed through the On the Radar Radio studio, becoming the first dancehall artiste of his generation to drop a freestyle on the platform.
Available on all digital platforms, Palm Angel follows the singles MUGGER, OutRAGEous, and DEEDs in the lead-up to Intence’s début album, VOYAGE. It will be his first project since 2021, when he dropped both the Wounded EP and Public Enemy No 1 mixtape.
That same year, New York Times writer Jody Rosen hailed Intence’s song Yahoo Boyz as “the biggest dancehall smash of 2021”.
