Drastic & Hailie Jae unleashes "Make It Official"

Drastic breathes life into the stale air with his latest record, "Make It Official," his slow-burning, soul-laden anthem that tastes like a midnight embrace. Created with a real sense of purpose and spirit, this lover's rock reggae treasure marries classic island riddims with the gloss of contemporary R&B, which sounds old and new, mingling to form something timeless and precise.

Drastic's voice has a muted authority, subtle and low-key but never unintentional. His voice has the heft of someone who has seen highs and lows of love, delivering lyrics that pose and long for commitment without being heavy-handed. And then there's Hailie Jae, with vocals of pure velvet. She takes the song to another level emotionally, blending seamlessly with Drastic in a duet that seems more like a conversation than a performance. 

"Make It Official" captivates with rich, emotive production from the legendary producer Jus Bus. Its texture feels like waves nibbling at the shore—gentle, layered, and impossible to ignore. The groove leans on a classic reggae sway but is kept just fresh enough to sit comfortably on any modern soul playlist.

"Make It Official" is not a sexy love song but a slow dance under string lights, the ride home after the heart-to-heart, the 2 a.m. text that says, "I want more than maybe." Vulnerable without being fragile, strong without being overproduced. For the romantics, the night owls, and anyone whose heart is still open to the idea that music speaks to that organ directly, this one's for you.
