Paranoid Releases His Third Project On Yaman Music – Sweet Mary Jane
Kingston, Jamaica, April 16, 2021. Paranoid releases his third project on the Yaman Music Label entitled “Mary Jane,” a Good, solid and engaging songs that will get stuck in your head for some time to come.
Paranoid has been keeping our playlists smoking with a slew of hot and sensual tracks in anticipation of his upcoming album. But his latest single “Mary Jane,” where he literally wants all the smoke, might just be the hottest.
The new project is a Paranoid-influenced ballad about Mary Jane filled with guitar, drums and synths. And, like Paranoid’s song, this track is less about a woman and more about his love of marijuana.
Relief After A Long Hard Day
Paranoid helps you to understand why Mary Jane was his love and the one whom he took comfort in after a long, hard day as his sweet tenor voice sings “I’ve been working all day in the burning sun, and when I get home, I gotta roll me one.”
The lyrics switch up between the cheeky and clever to the obvious allusion. If you don’t get it from lyrics like, “I need my herd, early in the morning, I need my herd in the noontime too, I need herb in the evening and at nighttime, Mary Jane am coming home to you, High Grade, am missing you,” should make it crystal clear. “Mary Jane ” follows up previous singles “Above and Beyond, ” and “Fragrance.” His upcoming album is slated to feature a variety of sounds and feelings, crossing genres to give us a little bit of pop, reggae, soul, rock and a few other things.
Theme Song For Ages
From Louis Armstrong to Lady Gaga, countless musicians have gone on record about their love for weed. Smoking can help with creativity, aid in relaxation, even expand the mind. But some artists take the practice even further, going out of their way to write musical odes to the sticky green stuff, whether it’s coded as a love interest – see the Beatles’ “Got to Get You Into My Life” or D’Angelo’s “Brown Sugar – or right there in the name, like Afroman’s “Because I Got High.” No matter how you roll it, songs about Mariguana keep the party going in any genre.
Strictly Sensimilla
“I man don’t use cocaine, dem thing dey can mash up yuh brain” Paranoid explained in an exclusive interview with Asani Ali. He has a prodigious appetite for the sticky green stuff. “I have to buy marijuana,” Paranoid Continued. “I don’t buy ounces, I buy pounds.” “Mary Jane” is sensimilla-infused soul of the highest order. 20 years is a long time to go between songs, even if you’re a Paranoid Fan. But, just over two decade later Paranoid has returned with some new songs and his latest release, Mary Jane, is in my opinionone of his greatest work so far.
Connect With Paranoid
Marijuana has served as the inspiration for smoking cuts in rock, hip-hop, pop and (of course) reggae, and is still influencing more than a few of our biggest artists today. Whether it’s Dylan’s “Everybody must get stoned” double entendre or Wiz Khalifa boasting, “Roll joints bigger than King Kong’s fingers/ And smoke them hoes down until they’re stingers” on “Young, Wild & Free,” his collab with the doggfather of all stoners, Snoop Dogg, musicians have bravely fought cottonmouth and given voice to the sticky icky for decades.
Most of them, in fact, began singing or rapping about the ganja back when it was straight-up illegal in America. But now, as people wise up and draconian regulations about marijuana roll back, it’s safe in many states to roll one up and enjoy (responsibly, of course).
This song don’t need any explanation, it is as it is, you can interpret it anyway you like, if you see it as the love for a woman, then that’s what it is. If you see it as a love for weed, it is that too.

Happy 4/20! Weed smokers everywhere are officially in celebration mode. Although there are different theories behind the origin of 4/20, the unofficial holiday is attributed to a group of Northern California high schoolers back in the early ’70s. The group: Steve Capper, Dave Reddix, Jeffrey Noel, Larry Schwartz, and Mark Gravich would meet up to smoke every day at 4:20 p.m., and thus a smoking ritual was born.
Today, cannabis has gone mainstream. Weed is now legal in 18 states and counting, along with Washington D.C. and Guam. Needless to say, the cannabis landscape has changed over the last 10 years. From the rise of weed delivery apps like Eaze, to cannabis-infused foods and beverages, beauty and skin care products, an almost endless amount of weed accessories, plus weed apparel and fashion collaborations and weed-related branding, the cannabis world just keeps getting bigger.
