As always, Juma Vybz has an intriguing story, and his latest delivers a powerful one. “The inspiration for ‘No Option’ is from the heart. It is my untold story. I have been through a lot in the space of a year, and this was my opportunity to air these experiences. It hasn’t been easy, but I had no option but to rise from the ashes again. Hence, the title.” He adds, “The main theme of this song covers a personal choice to not fit into the boundaries society has set for me while being okay with that. Rather than tear myself down, I want to use it to strengthen myself. The deeper message is to leave yourself no option; just keep pushing towards the light and you will rise above your situation.”
