    "'Bad' is a track produced by me and my brother Zeph Ellis. I had a vision to bring together the most successful and unique artists of 2017 on one track. It was great to see such energy and I'm very grateful to all of them, especially MoStack for blessing me again with such a great chorus. This is a club banger for the mandem to play for the gal dem and a track for the ladies to vibe to with each other. 'Bad' is a perfect scenario of a women who's part of the gang and is down for the team."
