“Womens History Month” highlighted the many Women who have taken the first step to their greatness, and like History, it continues to happen. Sharon Marley has been a part of History carrying on the Marley name with her family, but wants to make significant contributions outside of that. Music has always been in her blood, and age is just a number when it comes to being creative. She did the Reggae Band, she went Platinum (she was one of the first Jamaican Women to do so), she has GRAMMY awards, but now she wants to continue her solo pursuits with her debut album, “Firebird“.
Featuring 11 tracks, Sharon Marley makes her “Firebird” debut a shining moment. Released through her Gong Gyal Entertainment label, Marley presents a collection of some of her best work, showcasing decades of dedication, and tapping into new generations of sound while honouring those before her. She created her own fire here, and the tracklist consists of songs about love in various forms, self-reflection, liberation, and motivation. Production on “Firebird” taps into Jazz, Reggae, and R&B sounds, and includes the likes of Leroy Romans, her son Ingemar Prendergast, and Nicko Rebel while her sister Cedella, her son Biggz General, the legendary Big Youth, NVT3L, and Rica Newell join in through guest appearances. Sharon Marley rose with a fire to make an impact, and her debut looks to be one that sets the tone for a stronger legacy.

Digging through his archives and dropping a track today is Producer/Rapper Kris Karz. Titled “Rebel Music“, this features Singers Ana and Trust and Reggae artist Biggz General. This unmixed version also features a sample from the late Dennis Brown. Here they speak on being a rebel against the system, having their own thoughts and standing out in everything. They also pay respect to famous rebels who fought for the rights of people. A good effort here, given the right push this could be a hit for them all. What do you think? Check out the song below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
