I LOVE MY CRIX

I will jump out of planes,

And land in front of trains.

I will hang from a crucifix

All for my CRIX

 

I will set my face on fire,

while grabbing a live wire.

I will do all sorts of tricks

All for my CRIX

 

I will eat a live rat!

Wrapped in the skin of a dead cat!

To my head I would take kicks!

All for my CRIX!

 

I will run over to France

Even watch those French guys dance!

I will move in with some hicks

I love my CRIX.

RayvonRayvon has been known to be Shaggy's sweet voiced musical partner, helping the reggae singer attain international chart topping success with songs such as "Angel", "In The Summertime", "Oh Carolina" and "Big Up".

The singer, who was born Bruce Brewster in Barbados, will release his first ever soca tune entitled "Back It Up" in Trinidad & Tobago this weekend.

Rayvon wrote the song, which was recorded on the Dream Team riddim produced by Trinidadian, Carl "Beaver" Henderson (the producer who created the riddim for "The Ganja Farmer" sung by Marlon Asher). The vocals were recorded at Dainjamentalz USA in Brooklyn, New York.
