Ghetto Youths International presents “My Sound,” the latest single from reggae artist Christopher Ellis.

Inspired by Jamaica’s rich sound system culture, My Sound pays tribute to the long-standing tradition of DJs and selectors competing to ignite dancehall crowds by delivering the best selection of music. Riding a popular reggae rhythm, Christopher Ellis confidently boasts about the strength and identity of his sound.

The accompanying music video captures the spirit of the island’s sound system spaces, with scenes filmed at Uptown Mondays and Stone Love HQ.

Christopher Ellis, the youngest son of the late Alton Ellis—widely revered as the “Godfather of Jamaican Rocksteady”—continues to honor his family’s musical legacy while bringing his own contemporary voice to reggae audiences worldwide.

My Sound is available now on all major digital streaming platforms.

Reggae Vibes Music has re-released “Jamaica Holiday,” the uplifting reggae single performed by Turbulence, with a renewed mission to position the song as the modern soundtrack celebrating Jamaica, its people, and its world-renowned culture.

Few destinations enjoy the global recognition that Jamaica does. Even those who have never visited the Caribbean instantly associate the island with reggae music, pristine beaches, world-famous jerk cuisine, premium rum, and an energetic culture that has influenced generations worldwide. The re-release aims to harness that international appeal while encouraging tourism and celebrating everything that makes Jamaica one of the Caribbean’s most desirable destinations.

Adding to the song’s significance, “Jamaica Holiday” also serves as the official soundtrack for the feature film of the same name. The two-hour movie was written and directed by Richard Brown and Glenroy Dodd and produced by Richard Brown Films in association with Jammiwood.

The film follows a man facing personal challenges who embarks on a journey across Jamaica in search of clarity and healing. Along the way, audiences experience both the realities and the remarkable beauty of the island, discovering how moments of hardship often give way to hope, resilience, and transformation.
