After giving people great music over the years, Reggae artist/TV Personality Levi Roots decided to spread his entrepreneurial wings and give people all over the world a piece of Jamaica. On tonight’s episode of Onstage he spoke on his upbringing, being unable to fully educate himself before leaving Jamaica for the UK at age 11, his Reggae Reggae Sauce brand, the sauce’s success and launching it in Jamaica, his plans to produce the sauce in Jamaica, his experiences with the brand, his future ambitions and more. Great Interview, I may be a little late to the brand but I do hope it’s very successful here. I like the ad for it as well. I wonder if Levi is hiring.

NEW MUSIC: O.S.O.M. (Onira x @NeekoReggae) x Hurricane Jermaine – Herbalist Man


OSOM x Hurricane Jermaine Herbalist Man

Today’s new music comes from a collaboration between UK’s DJ Neeko, Onira and Hurricane Jermaine. Titled “Herbalist Man” and produced by Onira and Neeko as O.S.O.M., we hear Hurricane Jermaine singing about his love for the herbs while we get a bit of dubstep throughout the track. Not a bad effort from them, very interesting hearing dubstep with lyrics encouraging the use of marijuana. It’s the healing of the nation so If you get some, you know what to do. What you think of the song? Check it out below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
