The Dancehall Superstar's album is set to release amidst the real and uncertain danger of a Nuclear War event between Donald Trump's United States and Kim Jung Ung's North Korea.

"The Numbers Man" which is sure to garner multiple considerations during award season due to its high content of social commentary; includes the controversial One More Time, a tough and uncompromising track where Melekel directly addresses the ongoing issue of selectors, program managers and radio disc jockeys exercising bias in Dancehall.

The realistic true-to-life Panama Bankah projects the braggadocios idea of the existence of a large sum account under the artist's name in a major bank in Panama City.

He "wishes his fans a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year."
