Richie Stephens highly anticipated music video for the single Everybody Dance, will have its world premier on the popular WorldStarHipHop.com web site on Friday.

“I feel blessed to have the world premier of the video on an international platform like WorldStarHipHop,” an elated Stephens gushed. “This is a historic moment in my career and I am truly excited.”

Stephens chose to go in a new musical direction with Everybody Dance, which was recorded on the new Ska Teck Ova rhythm which fuses ska, which originated in Jamaica in the late 1950s and electronic dance music which pop acts like Rihanna and Lady Gaga have incorporated in their songs.

The video features more than 40 dancers of all ethnicities and Stephens will make his international debut as a dancer.

“I have been practicing some exciting new dance moves that I will unleash for the first time in Everybody Dance,” he said.

For the music video he worked with director Anthony Slaney and Jamaica‘s most experienced cinematographer Chris Browne. Browne is best known as director of Third World Cop and has worked on such Jamaican feature films as Dancehall Queen, One Love, Ghett A Life, KLA$H and several international productions that were filmed in Jamaica.

On October 11, Stephens is set to join international acts Keith Sweat, Johnny Gill, Dru Hill, Silk, Jeffrey Osborne, Peabo Bryson, Regina Belle, Freddie Jackson, Howard Hewitt and LUST at the inaugural Soul In The Sun concert which take place at the Aqueduct in Rose Hall, Montego Bay.
