“Take Care” of body and mind and avoid distractions by listening to the new Heaven Zest ft. Indubious. This irie new track slaps with a jamming bass and mindful message to make our own choices.

The new reggae meets hip hop track is so well written and brings chills on first listen. With a lot on our plates and doubt cast in our minds, it’s hard to see a finish line. This song motivates us to take a major step forward!

Take in the talent of Burning Spear by listening to the “Reggae-Up” album! The 20 track album is filled will jams and is the perfect album to throw on any time of day!

Take in positive “Energy” by grooving to Cali P and Gentleman. The artists team in this fast paced single and it will surround you with good vibes.

Embrace peace and love with Ranking Joe, JonQuan and Victor Rice’s “Top Ranking”. This new single has brilliant instrumentation and I absolutely connect with the song’s message.

Push fear to the side and make sure to “Express Yourself (Amplified Mix)” with Nneka, Ziggy Marley, Frank Fitzpatrick and Eeday. This gorgeous collaboration sends a crucial message empowering us to reach for dreams while being true to ourselves.

Feel all the love with Jesse Royal’s “Your Soul”. The beautiful new tune, released by Easy Star Records, is perfect for the dance floor or date night and brings so many feels.

Pack the dance floor with Mr Eazi’s “For My Head” ft. Mugeez and D Jay. This new dancehall tune has an infectious riddim that will have you floating across the floor. 

SunDub’s Joanna Teters is releasing some grooving new jams via The JoJos. We are huge SunDub fans and naturally Teters supporters and wanted to make sure the reggae community is following and supporting Joanna’s soulful project.

Mihali wrote the track reflecting on his early years of touring, trying to capture the energy of being young and ready for adventure. The feel good track was released by Mihali under license of Ineffable Records.

Hepcat and Scientist showcase a dub masterpiece with “The Fool (Foolish Dub)”. The song about the ups and downs of love has a lovely riddim, horn section and old school sound that will bring you back to earlier days of love.

Spend some chill time with your love by playing “Together” by Kyle Ahern with Chezidek. Any time Kyle Ahern releases a song you know it’s going to be well produced and super thoughtful.

Song of the Week: “Show Love” with Kabaka Pyramid, Irie Souljah & Nature Makonnen. The trio have come together for a modern reggae anthem that speaks to the power of love and unity in divisive times. The track was released on Kushite Organic Records.

Stay focused in the “Here and Now” with Joey Calderaio’s new single. I’m loving Calderaio’s peaceful song that reminds us to slow down and enjoy the moment in front of us.
