Canada’s reggae scene has long been enriched by one of its brightest stars, Kirk Diamond. On October 15, 2024, this three-time JUNO award-winning artist added to his impressive catalog with the release of his highly anticipated single, ‘Deh Yah.’
Known for his ability to blend reggae’s deep roots with contemporary themes, Kirk’s latest track is no exception. Produced by Triple B Produktionz, ‘Deh Yah’ offers a rich exploration of identity, culture, and adaptation as Kirk reflects on his personal experiences as a Jamaican immigrant.
The accompanying music video, directed by Shane Ramoutar of Frodillah Media Production Company, beautifully complements the single’s themes. Filmed in both Jamaica and Toronto, the video weaves vibrant scenes from both locations, visually telling the story of Kirk’s journey. From the sun-soaked beaches of Jamaica to the multicultural urban landscape of Toronto, the video celebrates the blending of two worlds, much like Kirk’s own life.
Kirk Diamond is no stranger to accolades, and ‘Deh Yah’ is poised to continue his legacy as a leading voice in reggae. With three JUNO awards to his name and his recent recognition at the Reggae North Music Awards as Top Male Vocalist of the Year, Kirk’s ability to connect with audiences remains undeniable. His music has always been about more than just entertainment—it’s a reflection of his heritage, his experiences, and his hopes for a more united world.
Available on all major streaming platforms, ‘Deh Yah’ invites listeners to embark on a journey of cultural exploration and celebration.
