I really love this jam. I’m impressed that many artists are releasing songs so that their fans can know how serious the virus is.

Corona is such a dope jam. Other than the amazing vocals of Spice Diana and Fik Fameica, the other thing that I love about it is that they infused their native language in the lyrics.

I also love the fact that the beat and instrumentation are mellow thus allowing the message that the artists are trying to pass to sink in. To add to that, they also blend well with their individual styles.

I love this jam and the only problem that I have with it is that it is too short. I mean how is it only 47 seconds long? Is Mr Seed serious? Anyway, that’s a story for another day.

Corona carries a powerful message and I know that many people, especially believers, will resonate with it. If there is a time we’ve ever needed God the most, it’s now and we should all reach out to him.
