New York, NY February 25, 2026. Sean Paul and Stalk Ashley aren’t strangers in the studio, and on their new single “Ready for the Ride,” it feels like the stars have aligned once again.


Produced by London-based Scribz Riley, a two-time Grammy winner for his work on Cardi B’s Invasion of Privacy, the track is grounded in Jamaican dancehall sounds but crafted for a global audience. While the driving bassline stays true to dancehall’s foundations, there are hints of Afrobeats and R&B, sitting atop reggaeton-style drum programming.

The artistes first linked in 2024 on “Stay With Me,” a standout moment from Stalk Ashley’s debut album Stalky the Bratt that was another signal of her arrival on the global dancehall radar.

Where their first collaboration explored intimacy and vulnerability, “Ready for the Ride” feels like its grown-up sequel, less about asking someone to stay, more about deciding to move forward together. Sean Paul shifts from mentor energy to full creative partner, Stalk Ashley showing more of her bold personality, and both artists meet in the middle for a sound that is both club-ready and emotionally grounded.

While Sean brings his trademark confidence and reassurance to the chorus, Stalk Ashley answers with fearless intention, embodying a woman who knows her worth and is prepared for what comes next. Their call-and-response mirrors modern relationships, one voice offering assurance, the other affirming readiness.

“Ready for the Ride” drops just as the multi-award-winning dancehall icon embarks on his headline European tour this month, with two weeks across France, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Germany. Over 250,000 fans will witness the track’s energy live, building on his viral momentum in Germany, where “Give It Up To Me” is climbing the Spotify Viral 50 and trending across TikTok and Shazam.

For Stalk Ashley, this collaboration marks a defining moment. Already recognized as a rising star on
the dancehall scene, her presence alongside a global icon like Sean Paul signals an artistic growth that launches her into new markets

With an official music video directed by Kieran Khan, “Ready For The Ride” promises a visual that is just as cinematic, vibrant, and organic.

The single is set to release on Thursday, February 27, 2026, on all major streaming platforms via Sean Paul’s Dutty Rock Production imprint, in conjunction with Milk & Honey Records, the newly launched label from the multi-faceted global entertainment powerhouse, Milk & Honey Music + Sports + Ventures.

“Ready for the Ride” is available for pre-save now.
