Reggae Music is universal, and continues to be so after adding more GRAMMY awards and other accolades to its mantle. Over the weekend, the new Film, “The Wrecking Crew” premiered on Amazon Prime Video. The Film stars Jason Mamoa and Dave Bautista, who are half brothers investigating the death of their Father in Hawaii. The Film features Actors who are from the Island of Hawaii and of Hawaiian descent, and shares parts of Hawaiian culture. Reggae got a feature in the Film, and we speak on it below.
During a scene in the new Film, “The Wrecking Crew”, “Brains” by Hawaiian/Samoan Recording Artist/Educator/Farmer Ka’ikena Scanlan was featured. The Pacific/Hawaiian Reggae single was released in 2019, produced by Pano, features Hawaiian Band These Guys, and was released through Spoon Meat Entertainment. The track speaks on the corruption that happens in the world, the manipulation of the people by evil doers and warmongers, and is a call for people to wake up, preserve the culture, and fight against systems that don’t mean the world well. Reggae music has mostly been about revolutions and consciousness, and Ka’ikena’s track is no different. “The Wrecking Crew” is out now on Amazon Prime Video.
