St. Croix-based reggae singer, actress and model Kenya Eugene has announced a new single titled “Bun It,” scheduled for release August 13, 2021. The new single is the first track revealed from her upcoming LP “Color Me Reggae,” a collaboration between Kenya Eugene and Bambu Station.
Kenya says about the new song, “I choose to name the single after the more popular/familiar name of the Labor Riot in St.Croix U.S.V.I., which is “the Fire Burn”. I just put my own twist on it. ‘Bun it’ is a derivative of slang we use in the Caribbean to put on blast or to make known your disapproval of the status quo.”
Kenya Eugene comes from a long line of artists and players of musical instruments. Kenya recalls as a youth following around her older siblings, including her older sister, acclaimed roots reggae singer Dezarie, just to be in the presence of music. Kenya’s songwriting intelligence and versatility has afforded her the opportunity to write for major and independent label artists.
Kenya released an earlier single titled Inner Light that features her sister Dezarie.
