<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"">The youngest son of Reggae legend Bob Marley, Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley garnered his own place in music history when he became the first ever Reggae artist to win a GRAMMY outside
of the Reggae category, taking home an award for Best Urban/Alternative performance for his title single, “Welcome To Jamrock.” The acclaimed 2005 breakthrough disc
<u>Welcome To Jamrock</u>, also won a GRAMMY for Best Reggae Album. Marley has been shaking up stages all over the world for the past few years, first in conjunction with his Distant Relatives project., and then when he went on to partner with Skrillex for
their groundbreaking track “Make It Bun Dem”, which Rolling Stone called “a monster mash up of dubstep and dancehall.”Damian is also working with his brothers Stephen and Julian under their Ghetto Youths International Label, to discover, develop and sign
gifted artistes by applying their musical talent and vast experience to create new and different styles of music. Damian is currently in the studio working on his upcoming solo album.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"">Eight time Grammy Award winning singer/songwriter/musician/producer Stephen Marley will release his fourth solo album “Revelation Part II: The Fruit of
Life,” the second installment in a two part series, following his critically acclaimed 2012 Best Reggae Album Grammy recipient “Revelation PartI: The Root of Life.” Whereas “The Root of Life” is a celebration/preservation vehicle for the powerful messages,
enriching spirit and live instrumentation that is the essence of roots reggae, “The Fruit of Life” utilizes a diversified sonic palette in its expression of the far-reaching impact Jamaican music has had on various genres, especially hip-hop. Like The Root,
which premiered atop the Billboard Reggae Album chart, following the Grammy Award winners “Mind Control” (2007) and “Mind Control Acoustic”(2009), making three consecutive number one Reggae tally debuts for Stephen, “The Fruit of Life” will be released on
the Marley family’s label Ghetto Youths International. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="Default"><span style="font-size:11.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Having fully recharged their momentous journey in the past year and a half, and having unquestionably established themselves as the premiere live group on the reggae circuit,
Morgan Heritage is now on </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"">another phase of their indomitable mission. The Royal Family of Reggae, has taken the impressively significant step forward by releasing their upcoming album, Strictly
Roots.</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif""> </span>
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"">According to Gramps, “Strictly Roots, our 10th studio album is particularly significant. It represents our first album released independent of VP Records, on our very own label CTBC
</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"">Music Group. VP has been great for the group and we're grateful for our years with them. We just felt it was time to approach the release of our music differently." Possessing that unmistakably
authentic Morgan Heritage organic roots sound with an expansively eclectic mix that takes it seamlessly into hybrid valleys and mountains, Strictly Roots interestingly pays homage to the elders, while ironically, also blazes the trail towards the exciting
future of roots.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif"">Tarrus Riley is among the leading ambassadors of modern day Reggae Music from Jamaica. The singer’s commanding vocals, intuitive lyrics and vibrant personality
have combined to create a formidable artiste with authentic credentials in Reggae music. His rising catalogue has been described as ‘healing’ music, and has brought adoration and acclaim from leading music luminaries from across the globe. His fifth studio
gem, Love Situation, was released with huge anticipation in February 2014, and it debut at number one on the Billboard Reggae Album chart and I Tunes Chart. The 17-track album again features a powerhouse behind the production that has produced consistently
admirable work over the decades. Tarrus Riley considers himself as a voice of the people, and has set himself apart as someone who sings for the people. He defines himself as one who makes thought-provoking music about Black consciousness and experiences with
the intention to open people’s minds and let them think. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
