Reggae Vibes Music Shares New Compilation Featuring Turbulence, Singer J & Others (@ReggaeVibesMus1)

Jamaican-American record label Reggae Vibes Music continues to raise the bar! The team’s latest release is a brand new reggae rhythm-driven compilation, titled Reggae Love & Unity Riddim. The five-track selection features veteran vocalist Turbulence; trending performers Singer J and Rufftop Rock I; and emerging artists Dreama and Shemeika.

Though the project was initially conceptualized several years ago, it was put on hold to allow the label to release other albums in its stead. That being said, both Dreama and Rufftop Rock I recorded their vocals in 2015, while all the others were done this year (2021). In keeping with the name of the compilation, all the songs are centered around one of two themes: Love and Unity. 

Dreama‘s song, “I could fall in love,” is already getting a lot of attention as it’s a remake of pop star Selena’s 90’s hit. For his part, Turbulence delivered a very inspirational track, while Rufftop Rock I calls for peace and unity. As for Shemeika and Singer J, they both did heartfelt love songs. Kenroy “Shortman” Mullings, who is the guitarist for Buju Banton and Beenie Man played the very distinctive signature rock guitar heard on the beat.

Reggae Love & Unity Riddim was officially released on Friday, February 12th.
