Quiet as it’s kept, KashieF Lindo is arguably one of the most relevant reggae artist of our generation. He has earned that title because of his wisdom and ability to only share time sensitive songs that accurately addresses the issues of the day.
“I Can’t See Your Face,” his latest single, speaks to the blatant manner in which some public figures in positions of authority are overtly supporting systematic racism in their respective territories. Additionally, the record also highlights the ongoing killing of Black people at the hands of the police – something that has recently gotten worldwide attention.
Though the tune was written by Willie Lindo – veteran reggae producer and KashieF‘s father – it does not in anyway diminish the aforementioned label given to the younger Lindo. Both father and son made significant contributions to this project. The song credits are as follows: KashieF is credited for drum programming, piano, keyboards and backing vocals; while Willie is credited for the guitars, writing and producing. The bass was played by Val Douglas, and it was recorded at HeavyBeat Recording Studio and mixed and mastered by their in-house crew.
This Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 9th at 9 pm ET/PT, legendary soul artist Patti LaBelle will be a guest on “DJ Cassidy’s Pass The Mic,” which airs on BET. Johnny Gill, another R&B giant has also been confirmed for the program.
For those not familiar with the show, the way it works is: from his sound-system at home, DJ Cassidy links virtually with R&B and Hip-Hop stars, as they sing along to their records, each “passing the mic” to the next.
As a Jamaican I am really proud of the way Buju Banton, Capleton, Barrington Levy and Bounty Killer represented on DJ Khaled‘s new album “Khaled Khaled.” In the song titled “Where You Come From” the men all went hard in their respective verses, while making it clear that “if you mess with we (Jamaicans) you ago make a million.”
The visuals for “Where You Come From” is equally as captivating as the song. Click here or on the image above to check it out and remember to like, comment and share.
Tradition Man Wolo is an avid student of reggae music and its legendary stars Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer, Jimmy Cliff and others. He also appreciates and admires the contributions made by lovers-rock giants like Gregory Isaacs and Beres Hammond. It is his admiration for the aforementioned artists that have led to his own career as a reggae singer and songwriter.
Tradition Man started writing songs and playing gigs while at Achimota High School in Accra, Ghana. After experimenting with music as a solo act, he eventually teamed up with friends to form the now defunct reggae band Club Tradition. At the time, the men were attending the University of Ghana – also in Accra – and became very active, performing on local college campuses.
Unfortunately, his pursuit for a Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology took priority, which resulted in him taking a hiatus from music.
Approximately ten years ago, he relocated to the United States to further his education. This move saw him attending both the University of Toledo and Arizona State University, where he earned a MA and MBA respectively. Following those achievements, his work as a market researcher in the software industry later took him to Seattle, Washington, which is where he is currently based.
The Ghanaian reggae lover is now ready to re-enter the music industry, and will do so with a brand new single called “This Feeling” on May 12th, 2021.
On May 7th American gospel singer Phil Thompson will be releasing his new single, “Jesus.” In an effort to promote the song he has uploaded an official live video to his channel. Click here or on the image above to check it out and remember to like, comment and share.
