Big Smile
This new single, BIG SMILE, in collaboration with the Caribbean label WOOLIN'BOX, is an anthem to joy, positivity, and brotherhood. Once again, Jadawee I calls on us to share our humanity, to share, with this small smile, a large part of our being that does great good around us, great good to both giver and receiver. BIG SMILE is a small gesture that does great things, so SMILE...
