Dudsymil balances finance, music

On his third body of work, Rise Again, recording artiste Dudsymil decided to make it more personal.

The 13-track album, released on October 19 via Sky Factory Music, reflects his own journey.

“Rise Again was inspired by life itself. Over the past few years I’ve experienced moments that tested my career, my relationships, my trust, my faith, and ultimately how I viewed myself. There were moments of uncertainty, disappointment, and betrayal. But through those experiences I came to understand that rising again doesn’t necessarily mean returning to the person you were before the pain. Sometimes you’re meant to emerge differently — wiser, stronger, and more aligned with your purpose,” Dudsymil told the Jamaica Observer recently.
