Tad’s Record is proud to present the Queen of Reggae music, Marcia Griffiths, with her new double colored vinyl album, Marcia Griffith’s Sings Studio One: Timeless. The release of this double colored vinyl album is a response to the massive demand for the highly successful album in this format.

One of the foremost singers of Reggae music, Empress Marcia Griffiths, is continuing to break new ground. Her new album, which is appropriately titled Timeless, is a selection of 15 songs that pay tribute to the endurance of the Studio One label catalog which boasts the most solid collection of foundation songs in the historic art forms of Ska, Rocksteady and Reggae music.

Marcia has had the incredibly good fortune of spending her formative years at Studio One, the record stable that shaped the career of other top-ranking artists such as Bob Marley and Bob Andy.

Timeless is produced by Donovan Germain and executive producers Tad A. Dawkins and Tad A. Dawkins Jnr. The classic renditions from this album are available on compact disc (CD), vinyl, and on all digital platforms worldwide.

Veteran Toronto Rapper Uzman Addresses Stress In Times Of Covid (@UZMAN1)

One of Toronto’s longtime hip-hop veteran artist, Uzman, has just dropped a record that addresses the rise in stress related illnesses and deaths, stemming from the covid-19 protocols. The song, titled “Stress Less,” is delivered in a manner that makes it very easy to digest, even for those that aren’t necessarily into hip-hop.

In a recent article by The Globe & Mail, it was reported that suicides went up sharply during the pandemic. Additionally, there have been countless stories from various news outlets highlighting the rapid rise in depression, right across North America, because of the corona virus.

Being an experienced MC, Uzman was very careful to broach this extremely serious topic in a light-hearted, fun but powerful way. When asked what he would like people to take away from the song, he said the following: “When it feels like more Stress Is building on top of Stress, just start thinking – Stress Less.”
