8. Jah9 – “Avocado”
Self-proclaimed “foodie” Jah9 released the video for her Rory StoneLove-produced single “Avocado” just last month. It features Jah9 serenading the ultra-healthy green fruit (or her muse, the youth Orlando who picks and brings it to her) with the catchy hook: “Avocado, mi love di avocado.” The song and video are both lighthearted and leave you with a feeling of tenderness, similar in fact, to how it feels to press into that perfectly ripe avocado.
