Tasha T continues her One World journey with Chapter 2, arriving with the new single “Bad and Ruff” featuring Lady G.
Reggae artist Tasha T is set to release One World: Chapter 2 on September 4, 2026. The two-part project is presented by RasVibe Records Inc. in collaboration with IslandYard Productions and distributed by VPAL Music. One day before the full chapter arrives, the title track and lead single, “Bad and Ruff” featuring Lady G, lands on September 3.
Two chapters, one world
Chapter 2 follows the August 14 release of One World: Chapter 1, extending Tasha T’s two-part portrait of her artistry. The first chapter highlighted her melodic and soulful approach across 12 songs rooted in faith, love, resilience, heritage, female empowerment and global unity. The second chapter brings forward her stronger deejay delivery and a more direct approach to social and cultural commentary.
“Bad and Ruff” sets that sharper tone. Driven by Tasha T’s firm delivery and conscious outlook, the song reflects Chapter 2’s urgency while remaining grounded in the roots reggae tradition that has shaped her work. Lady G’s presence adds another commanding voice to a track built for listeners who want their reggae with message, movement and edge.
“One World represents the different ways I use music to connect with people. These two chapters allowed me to honour both sides of who I am as an artist while reminding listeners that, despite our differences, we are still one people living in one world.”
— Tasha T
Momentum from “Ten Foot Wall”
Chapter 2 arrives while the lead single from Chapter 1, “Ten Foot Wall,” continues its chart run. The song reached No. 1 on the Rebel Vibez Top Ten and The Reggae North chart, and No. 3 on the New York Foundation Radio Network Top 30.
Together, the two chapters show the range of Tasha T’s sound without moving away from its foundation: purposeful music, cultural identity and shared humanity. From Chapter 1’s reflection and melody to Chapter 2’s urgency and direct commentary, One World is designed as a complete statement about connection.
