Taxi Family in studio working with Ruach Ru

Legends in Reggae Music production, Sly Dunbar and Bunny Brown, of the Taxi family, have taken Ruach Ru under their wings and will be working with the artiste on the production of three singles. The first song is a one drop Ballad that’s slated for release within the next few months. Information on the other two tracks will be shared once the first song is completed.

Ruach Ru will also be collaborating with other noted reggae artistes… Details to come.

A week ago, Assassin aka Agent Sasco, released the official video for “stronger” which is on his recently released album, ‘Theory of Reggaetivity.’ Many reggae critiques agree that “stronger” is one of, if not the best song on the album. With powerful lines like: “if it don’t kill me, I know it’s gonna bill me, it’s gonna make me stronger”; this is more than music, it is a raw motivation.

Watch & Share the video.

Evidence Music, in collaboration with Australian producer, Mista Savona, present; Heal Them Riddim. This new release is a roots stepper instrumental, with rockers drum rythm influences and a deep electronic bass. On it we find Jamaica’s reggae veteran, King Kong, talking about terrorism and extreme ideological beliefs that tends to cause horror and destruction around the world.

King Kong was living in Paris during the November attacks and his experience can be felt throughout the track. Click here to listen the track and here to purchase from iTunes.

A few weeks ago, Jamaica’s lioness, Ruach Ru, released the official video for her track, ‘Watering I’ and immediately captured the attention of several media houses both here at home and abroad.

Ruach Ru is no stranger to industry insiders in Jamaica so it’s not surprising that she got the kind of support she did from reggae lovers in Jamaica and those in the Diaspora. What was surprising however was the way in which some African and even European media houses got behind the song and the video. Several major African platforms (blogs, entertainment website, radio etc.) are now aggressively promoting both the record and its visuals; and the momentum has now been picked up in Poland and is slowly spreading across Europe.

To say that ‘Watering I’ is a powerful song would be a gross understatement. More than just being powerful, the song is simply addictive, causing the listener to become engulfed in what seems like an inexplicable force. If you have not yet seen the video, watch it below and enjoy.
