Jah Lama’s Debut Album “Fight The Fight” Is Now Available On All Music Platforms

After featuring Rastafarian recording artist Jah Lama on several of their early rhythm-driven compilations, Pandemic Records & Entertainment LLC inked a deal with the sing-jay in February of this year. Ever since then, they’ve been working hard to make the Clarendonian a household name within Jamaica’s reggae-dancehall industry.

To that end, the team have just released Jah Lama‘s debut album, Fight the Fight. The eight-track project, which features one collaboration – Burn Dem Down, done with Turbulence – was highly anticipated by Lama‘s growing fan base, most of whom have been privy to the already published singles: Pouring Rain, Progress, Fight, and Burn Dem Down.
