Production was spearheaded by Dean Fraser for Cannon assisted by talents such as Shane C. Brown of Juke Boxx Productions, Mitchum Khan Chin and Jordan McClure. Shane C. Brown along with Romel Marshall mixed the project and mastering was done by Grammy award winning engineer Michael Fuller. Love Situation is a throwback to the sound of classic Jamaican rock steady with a modern twist.  Fans of classic Jamaican music will undoubtedly recognize many favorite rhythms from the days of Treasure Isle. Guests such as U Roy, Konshens, Big Youth, Mr Cheeks (from the Lost Boyz), Dean Fraser and Whippa Demus contribute to the cross-generational vibe that Riley (aka Singy Singy) has crafted on this project.

When reached for comment, Zojak World Wide president Aaron Mahlfeldt stated, "We are very pleased to be working with Reggae superstar Tarrus Riley. Working closely with Tarrus' entire team along with Shane C Brown and Dean Fraser has been one of the best experiences we have had in the music industry. They are all true professionals on every level and very easy to collaborate with. We thank Tarrus and his production team for partnering with Zojak to release Love Situation, 2014's Rock Steady masterpiece." The ever-jovial Tarrus Riley expressed gratitude, saying, "Special Thanks to the engineers, singers and players of instrument for lending their expertise on this project. Extra Special Salute to the legends of the indigenous Jamaican genre of music called 'Rock Steady' also called 'Lovers Rock' in other parts of the world."

Love Situation is a true testimony to the resilience and timeless quality of the greatest era of Jamaican music. Great rhythms, engineering, production and of course the stellar vocal work of 'Singy Singy' attest to the fact that quality reggae music is alive and well in the minds, hearts, and dancing shoes of today's music listeners around the globe. The album will be available January 28^th for pre-order and officially released February 4^th on iTunes and a variety of online retailers, as well as physical CD's in digipak.
