RajahWild raises critical questions about the challenges faced by Jamaican youths in finding employment and addresses the issue of scamming in the country in his new song, Tell Me.

In the song, the dancehall artiste touches on Prime Minister Andrew Holness’ call for young people to seek employment, instead of turning to illegal activities such as scamming. He counters this advice by the prime minister, emphasising the harsh reality faced by many Jamaicans: the lack of high-paying job opportunities.

RajahWild then asks the prime minister to tell him a more realistic solution that people should explore when they are desperate to feed their families.
