 One of Jamaica’s biggest stars [Protoje](http://www.instagram.com/protoje) boldly states “me nah sit and wait pon di law” in the chorus of “Self Defense,” a standout track from his 2020 album _In Search Of Lost Time_. Almost one year later, he reveals its official music video, a gripping tale of retributive justice when the government fails to take action.  In this visual, the revered artist whose signature sound masterfully blends hip-hop, reggae, and dancehall, shares an important and timely message to seek justice against male predators. Donned in face masks and strapped with bats, a group of young ladies take matters into their own hands to expose a man of his vile crime for the whole town to see. Protoje teamed up with local director Rebecca Williams and entrusted her vision.  “I’m happy to finally put visuals to what is one of the most impactful songs on my last album. I didn’t want to push my agenda of what this song means to me in this music video, but it was important to collaborate with women to reflect how women feel in these times and work with a female director, female talent, and female leads,” Protoje elaborates on the concept of the video. The Grammy-nominated reggae artist continues to wave the flag for women and promote gender equality within his own industry. His label and artist management company In.Digg.Nation Collective, which signed a joint venture deal in 2020 with RCA Records, has been hailed for its forward-thinking music and consists of an all-female roster [Sevana](http://instagram.com/callmesevana), [Lila Iké](http://instagram.com/lilaike) and [Jaz Elise](http://instagram.com/jazelise) excluding himself. In a male dominated arena, he knows the importance of broadening the full spectrum of talent that exists in Jamaica.   Protoje’s fifth studio album _In Search of Lost Time_ stays in rotation since its release on August 28, 2020. Now the vinyl edition to _In Search of Lost Time_ is [available for pre-order](https://www.diggersfactory.com/fr/vinyl/243609/protoje-in-search-of-lost-time) with shipments in September.
