For almost two years now, dancehall artiste Skippa has been steadily cementing his status as one of the new generation’s true frontrunners. After breaking out with a slightly different trappy style, he quickly captured attention, building a loyal fan base and generating an endless stream of virality that continues to elevate his profile.

He’s no stranger to the charts, but November shows just how far his dominance now stretches across the scene.

Skippa is currently ruling both the charts and the streets, where Jamaica’s music is shaped and where the real soundtrack of the moment is defined. He boasts nine songs on Apple Music’s Top 25 in Jamaica. His latest drop, “WYFL” by DJ Mac sits at #1, followed by “Currency” at #4, “10 Past 2” (#5), and “Go On” (#9), just a few from a batch of viral heaters.

Proof of his dominance lies in the relentless street airplay - from corner shops and stores to taxis, vendors, plazas, and every Jamaican space where music breathes. His unique flow and infectious, catchy records have become the pulse of the streets, and his fanbase keeps growing. You only need to step into a party to witness entire audiences singing his songs word for word.

And now, as he begins taking his sound overseas and experiencing new markets, that same energy is echoing across communities and fueling his rapidly growing momentum.

And as the year draws to a close, Skippa not only solidifies but propels himself to the front page of dancehall’s new-gen movement. One thing is clear: November is yours, Skippa.
