Usain Bolt has explained how his new hit song is helping him overcome the death of his father who passed away three months ago.

Jamaican sprinting legend and music producer Usain Bolt says his latest production, "Spend Time" by Agent Sasco, is a poignant reminder to cherish moments with loved ones.

The single's release on June 27 comes just three months after the passing of Bolt's father, Wellesley.

"It's just like, the energy of the universe caused Sasco to come up with this song at a time like this ... after losing my dad," Bolt told the Weekend Star.

"It really emphasises the importance of just spending time with our loved ones. Cherish every moment with your loved ones. You can't buy time, just spend time and cherish your loved ones, you don't have to have anything to give to them... just spend time," he added.

"Spend Time" marks Bolt's first production since his father's death, making it deeply personal. The song delivers uplifting messages through Agent Sasco's signature lyrical skill, encouraging listeners to prioritize connection over material possessions.

Backed by Bolt's A-Team Lifestyle record label, the song boasts crisp, soulful production. It's a fusion of thoughtful mixing, emotive instrumentals, and a timeless reggae rhythm. Bolt expressed pride in the team's accomplishment.

"We wanted to make a wholesome reggae song that would resonate with the public. Each of us spend time going after our goals daily, remaining motivated is a must, and this song is one of those anthems that complements the melodic beat," Bolt said.

The collaboration originated when Bolt's business partner and executive manager, Nugent 'NJ' Walker, encountered legendary Agent Sasco at Big Yard studios. Walker invited Sasco to listen to some beats, and the rest, as they say, is history.

"Sasco is a detail-oriented person and we really appreciate it. He pays a lot of attention to detail, resulting in this amazing record – “Spend Time”. He really took the time to make sure it was done right," Bolt further said.

"Sasco is a true master at his craft. We fully support our Jamaican music genre and really feel good when the cream of the crop records with us.”
