Russell has signed a deal with LA-based Venus Entertainment Group, which had launched the international careers of Bravo and Hindi musician Arko, for a Hinglish club song.

Russell says, "Cricket has always been my first love, but I am fond of singing and dancing too. We Jamaicans love music; it runs in our blood."
