R. City aka Rock City, the St. Thomas, Virgin Islands hit makers, continue to make their imprint on the music industry.  This time the talented duo is stepping from behind the scenes into the forefront with their new music video, “Locked Away.”

Anyone from the U.S. Virgin Islands and far beyond should be familiar with these guys, but if you aren’t let me inform you.  Theron Thomas and Timothy Thomas are the brothers (and I mean brothers literally!) behind hits for Rihanna (“Pour It Up”), Miley Cyrus (“We Can’t Stop”), Beyoncé (“Bow Down/I Been On”) and many more.   Many moons ago Rock City was signed to Akon’s Konvict label but an album was never released and since then the duo experienced commercial success as producers/song writers.  However, this newly released reggae inspired track featuring Adam Levine of Maroon 5 is bringing them to the forefront, a long sought after position for the pair.

R. City is known for their mix of reggae and pop and this song is no different. It looks like this song is going straight to the top!  The song is already #35 on the Billboard Charts as R. City prepares to release their debut EP via Dr. Luke’s Kemosabe Records/RCA very soon.  The video begs the question would you still love me the same if I was “Locked Away”.  I love the song and that the R. City speaks in their native Virgin Island patois.  They have ALWAYS repped hard for the Virgin Islands and this shows that whether their audience is local or international this will never change.  Yes, R. City Red Carpet Shelley will always love you the same!

I have been a fan, follower, stalker, for a long time so I am happy to see the veil is being lifted and R. City is stepping out from the shadows to the forefront for the world to see.
