On Sunday, August 24th, the king of lovers rock, Beres Hammond, will perform at the Gas South Arena—6400 Sugarloaf Pkwy—in Duluth, Georgia. The “Rock Away” singer is expected to deliver a stellar set along with a handful of his colleagues: Kes The Band, Tarrus Riley, Dean Fraser and the Blak Soil Band.

Mix Master David, DJ Jaspa, and DJ Bread have all been assigned the task of keeping attendees entertained in between sets, before and after the concert. The show is scheduled to start at 6pm and tickets can be purchased on Ticketmaster.

Singer-songwriter Aaron Splendid is stepping into the spotlight with a bold voice and a heartfelt message. A longtime member of the roots-reggae scene and associated with renowned artists like Mikey General and Luciano, Aaron has been quietly honing his craft. Now, with renewed focus and determination, he’s launched his own label, So Splendid Records, and released his debut single, marking a new chapter in his musical journey.

His first official release, Action Satisfaction, dropped in mid-June and showcases his distinctive blend of R&B and reggae influences. Despite having recorded nearly 14 other tracks, Aaron chose this love song as his introduction to the wider public. Drawing inspiration from musical greats such as Kenny Rogers, Stevie Wonder, Gerald Alston, and The Manhattans, Aaron delivers a deeply personal and emotive performance that reflects a real experience from his youth—a formative relationship that left a lasting impression.

Produced by respected artist and producer Star Social, Action Satisfaction offers a raw and honest plea for intimacy and connection. The track is now available on all major streaming platforms, including iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, and Tidal. With this debut, Aaron Splendid makes a confident entrance, offering a fresh yet nostalgic sound that’s both personal and universally relatable.

CJ Records has released “Slow Down Riddim”, a compelling six-track reggae compilation featuring new music from some of the genre’s most respected voices. The project brings together Mikey General, Sizzla Kalonji, Lutan Fyah, Luciano, Norris Man, and Turbulence—each delivering original tracks that showcase their lyrical power and individual artistry.

Every artist on the compilation brings a distinct message. Sizzla seeks spiritual direction on “Guide & Protect Me,” while Lutan Fyah asserts his roots and authority on “King’s Son.”Mikey General uplifts with “Never Let Them Let You Down,” echoing a similar spirit of resilience heard in Luciano’s “Jah Will See You Through.” Turbulence shifts gears with a heartfelt love song, “Always on My Mind,” and Norris Man turns his focus to the youth with “Big Bad Chucky”, calling attention to the violence affecting their communities.

“Slow Down Riddim” officially dropped on July 25, 2025, and is now available across all major digital platforms including Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer, iTunes, Amazon Music, and Boomplay. With a lineup of conscious voices and a rich, roots-driven sound, the project stands as a timely and meaningful addition to the reggae landscape.

“I Got A Song” represents a compelling collaboration between Ghanaian music luminary and four-time GRAMMY nominee Rocky Dawuni and Cedella Marley, a three-time GRAMMY award winner and daughter of reggae icons Bob and Rita Marley.

The song draws its inspiration from the Australian Aboriginal concept of “Songlines,” which serves as a cultural navigation system embodying ancestral wisdom that links people and places. This composition stands as a profound tribute to humanity, skillfully intertwining spiritual connections from Africa to the Diaspora and beyond, and delivering a timeless message of unity, love, and cultural solidarity.

The accompanying music video, directed by emerging talents Ebenezer Brew (also known as Slingshot) in Ghana and Jolver Cutino in Miami, vividly interprets the song’s message through striking visuals, dynamic imagery, and compelling narrative. The video’s vibrant energy reflects the themes of joy, optimism, and global fellowship inherent in the song, harmonizing seamlessly with the rich musical arrangement crafted by Dawuni and Marley.
