Reggae is universal, and if you didn’t know that, you’re out of the loop. Hailing from Barcelona, Spain and based in Kingston, Irie Souljah has been doing his part as a Reggae Artist for a number of years, further strengthening his role as a student of the genre. Recently, he advanced to another level with the release of his new album, “World Citizen“.

Featuring 10 tracks, Irie Souljah continues to elevate his music with the release of, “World Citizen”. The album follows up the “All About Love” EP from 2023, and presents messages of unity and love, and further strengthen bonds and cultures through the power of Reggae. Souljah encourages listeners to experience the new album like a movie, as he presents his everyday life and experiences, and how he views the world in present day. The album was released through Ineffable Records, features co-production with Genís Trani, and includes collaborations with Kabaka Pyramid, Medisun, Mystic Marley, and Alborosie. As Reggae Music continues to connect the dots, Irie Souljah does his part to bridge gaps, and open doors for new ideas, new collaborations, and new sounds, as a “World Citizen“.

OLDIES SUNDAY: Alborosie Ft. @EtanaStrongOne – Blessing (2008)

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s a new month! Welcome to June, a.k.a. the Wedding month for many. Big up those who are tying the knot this month, but what’s on your Wedding Playlist? Luckily for today’s “Oldies Sunday” selection, we have a suggestion. Check out Reggae Artists Alborosie and Etana’s “Blessing“.

Co-Produced with Clifton “Specialist” Dillion and released through Forward Recordings in 2008 and VP Records in 2009, Alborosie and Etana delivered what would become a part of many Wedding soundtracks in, “Blessing”. The duo share the joy of being together, joining in hearts and love, and emphasize that their union was a divine creation. The combination of their unique vocals over the powerful production make for a great listen, and shortly after its release, it became a hit. “Blessing” was featured on Etana’s debut album, “The Strong One” in 2009, and in 2014 on the “Alborosie & Friends” album. While we don’t have chart information on the track, it became a top charting song for many listeners worldwide.

Since the release of “Blessing”, Alborosie went on to have a fruitful career in Reggae. The Italy-born Artist scored more hits and released more albums, cementing his place in the culture. Etana went on to become a Reggae powerhouse, becoming the first Female Artist in nearly 20 years to be nominated for a GRAMMY. She has amassed a number of hits, but “Blessing” remains one of her biggest collaborations.

Thank you Alborosie And Etana For This Classic!

Alborosie & @KabakaPyramid Share Their “Nah Sell Out” Collaboration

Posted on by swadedavillain

In a world that finds many giving up morals and beliefs for fame and “the bag“, Reggae Artist Alborosie is not here for none of that. He is charged up, and ready to deliver the right message with his new single, “Nah Sell Out“.

Featuring GRAMMY-winning Artist Kabaka Pyramid, Alborosie shares on “Nah Sell Out” that the goal is to be successful and earn that money, but not at the cost of his faith and consciousness. He gets militant with Kabaka, and the track should be quick to slap you upside your head if you think you’re going to sell out for material things. The Warrior Films-directed visual finds the Artists chopping it up with their respective companions at the table, and we get flashbacks of them as kids experiencing various things in their community while trying to survive out there. Alborosie has found another hit with this single, and we expect its message to connect with the right people today. “Nah Sell Out” was featured on Alborosie’s latest album, “Destiny“.

(Speaking of chopping, we need that Kabaka x Masicka EP)
