The beauty of today’s reggae genre is there are so many talented artists around the world and they are all innovating in unique ways. At the same time, reggae boasts a unique spirit of collaboration and “Ocean of Truth”, the new 13 track album by One Culture and Mellodose is the perfect example of this in action.

We all have a unique journey and it’s important to celebrate our experience. “Cheers” by Stoney Banks and Mellodose is the perfect new song to slow down and appreciate the little things in life!

One Culture is an amazing Virginia Beach band bringing together the best of reggae, rock and dub. The band’s new album “Forward, Always” is inspiring in so many ways and I especially love the band’s thoughtful lyrics that transcend emotions and their impressive guitar playing throughout the record.

One Culture and Mellodose have collaborated in the new song, Chameleon and we are feeling the song’s riddim and message. In a post on his YouTube page, Mellodose said, “This tune is about overcoming your demons & giving thanks daily.” Chameleon features a grooving bass line, gnarly guitar solo, and message of positivity.
