It’s hard not to notice the Latin influence in South Florida, given the region’s massive Spanish population. For singer G Cole, their music is also magnetic.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
‘She Said’<\/em><\/strong>, his latest song, is a blend of reggae and Latin. Released in October, it is produced by Ed Robinson, Ryan Smith and Loc Frequency.<\/p>\n G Cole has called South Florida home for many years and says the Latin presence there is inescapable.<\/p>\n “Absolutely, SoFlo is a melting pot, so if you\u2019re in a party or club or even venues I\u2019d play with my band, in between sets there\u2019s a lot of Latin music being played. Also, on SoFlo radio, but honestly the way the Latin community embraces our music almost solicits automatic reciprocity,” he stated.<\/p>\n G Cole, who is originally from Ocho Rios, recently returned from Costa Rica where he recorded songs and checked out that country’s music scene.<\/p>\n Eight years ago, he did ‘When Girl Meets Boy’<\/em><\/strong>, a reggae-tinged song with Latin singer Sheyladow. It whetted his appetite to step outside of his comfort zone, which is lovers rock reggae.<\/p>\n ‘She Said’<\/em><\/strong> is the fourth single released from G Cole’s third album which he expects to be out in early 2024.<\/p>\n “Without giving too much away, this album has a specific purpose. It\u2019s a lot of major chords, simple lyrics, catchy melodies and easy- listening hooks. It\u2019s a lot of ‘don\u2019t worry be happy’ without compromising the message,” he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s hard not to notice the Latin influence in South Florida, given the region’s massive Spanish population.
