Why Capleton Never Sings Songs Written By Others

Reggae/Dancehall superstar Capleton says he has never recorded songs written by anyone else, as doing so, according to him, appears inauthentic.

"There is no limit to our music, caw rememba seh it bring dat love; it bring dat soul. It have dat spiritual connection an it mek people get inna demself. It mek people cry you know, crying through that joy and dat love and the connection weh dem feel. Because rememba seh music a di function of the head and the heart you know, so dem communicate dem work enuh," he said during an interview with Television Jamaica's The Entertainment Report.

"That's why I don't sing songs that someone wrote, you know," he added.

"I mean I have to write what I feel so it is authentic so when I'm on the stage and I'm delivering then you know people can feel it because it is coming from my heart. It is something that I've been
through or suppm weh mi guh through. A it mi a
