Ricardo Wray, known professionally as Kurtiouss, is a talented singer, songwriter, and lyrical deejay from Hesse Cassel in St. Ann, Jamaica, who now resides in the United States. He recently released the official video for his single “This Love For You.”

“This Love For You” is featured on the highly acclaimed “Natural Vibes Riddim,” a reggae compilation produced by Reggae Vibes Music that includes notable artists such as BusySignal, Jah Cure, Turbulence, and many others. The music video was skillfully directed by Darren Grant of Big Brother Production and was filmed in mid-July in the picturesque coastal town of Lucea, situated between Negril and Montego Bay.

Kurtiouss has expressed great enthusiasm regarding the reception of this song: “It has been doing pretty good; it’s been getting a lot of support and good feedback from people around the world.” He notes that this project has significantly advanced his career due to its production quality and extensive promotional efforts.

Currently gaining traction on various reggae radio stations across several African countries, Kurtiouss‘ team is diligently working towards securing airtime for the video on African television. If you have not yet seen the clip, it can be viewed on both Reggae Vibes Music and Kurtiouss‘ YouTube channels.

Veteran reggae artist Mikey General will join his longtime friend and music colleague Luciano at the forthcoming Rise Reggae concert in Barbados. Scheduled for Saturday, November 16th, the event will also feature performances by Gyptian, Tarrus Riley, and legendary saxophonist Dean Fraser.

Mikey General is a British-born Jamaica-based singer-songwriter who has given us hits like “Father God Almighty,” “Sinners,” “Deh Pon Dem,” and many more. In the early 90s, he, along with Luciano, Shadowman, Jesse Jenda, Ragnum Poyser, and a young Sizzla Kalonji, were all recognized as members of the Exterminator Crew because they were recording for Phillip ‘Fattis’ Burrell’s Exterminator label.

Fast forward to 2024, and Mikey General, who is a committed Rastafarian, is still actively delivering faith-based music and socially conscious content. A couple of his more recent releases that have gained traction are “Redemption,” a collaboration done with Luciano for Dub-Stuy Records, and “Up & At Them,” voiced on the “Survive Riddim” for Blakkwuman22 Music.

Rise Reggae will be held at Kensington Oval (3WS Theatre), which is located in Bridgetown.
