Micah Shemaiah‘s brand new album titled Still is now available on all music platforms. The record, which was done in collaboration with Zion I Kings, was released on Friday, the 29th of October. Although there are no noted features, the project does have major contributions from several reggae veterans such as the Mighty Diamonds, Dalton Brownie and others.

Still has twelve tracks and is heavy on the Rastafarian movement, Africa love and mother nature. This is a soulful roots reggae album with some dub sprinkled throughout.

For the past few years, Jam Link International – one of the most respected reggae event promoters in Aarhus, Denmark – has been hosting the Bob Marley Celebration in the month of February. The event, which started out in a small venue and initially featured mainly local talents, has since expanded to a bigger location and has seen several international reggae and dancehall acts gracing its stage. 

However, much like other events in Europe and other parts of the world, the Bob Marley Celebration had to be halted because of the covid-19 pandemic. That said, members of the Jam Link International board recently held an in-depth meeting that resulted in all members agreeing to resuming the popular concert in February, 2022. 

Therefore, the annual Bob Marley Celebration will be returning to the city of Aarhus on Friday, February 18, 2022. Stay tuned for additional information.

Pride is the latest single from recording artist Bling Dawg, who continues to tease us with singles that will be featured on his upcoming album. On Pride he is joined by international reggae star Romain Virgo.

On October 1st the team at HeavyBeat Records gave reggae lovers an early holiday gift; Love On, KashieF Lindo‘s newest LP. 

Fans and supporters of the Florida-based reggae singer are ecstatic about this: his first full length album in nine years. What also makes this project appealing to some of KashieF‘s longtime followers, is the fact that it is filled with lovers-rock tunes; a stark difference from the Justice: A Conscious Journey EP he shared in 2020.

An added reason for elation is the knowledge that legendary reggae producer Willie Lindo – KashieF‘s father – is the man behind this project. The fourteen-track album has two covers: Prisoner of Love, originally done by James Brown and Goodbye Now Forever, made popular by The Clarendonians in the 60s.
