LEGEND REMIXED Trailer
Just released today is the trailer for the Bob Marley, LEGEND REMIXED project. Some big names such as Stephen and Ziggy Marley and Lee 'Scratch' Perry are getting involved on this album, but as you can also see from the trailer above, there are some serious electronic/dubstep and dub influences that will be featured on the production. I'm really looking forward to this album - it sounds like they took a step outside the box on this one to give us something different, which I think says a lot, if you consider how many thousands of times these same songs have been remixed.

Introducing: Raphie
Hailing from Huntington Beach, CA, Raphie's style strives to achieve a late-70's, early-80's roots reggae vibe. My assessment: Mission Accomplished! Close your eyes and listen to either one of these tracks below, and immediately you're immersed in the iconic, rootsy, dubby style of reggae from that time period. My first thought when I heard Raphie was, "This kid sounds like a modern day Gregory Isaacs."
Phenomenal production quality and undeniably unique vocals are the cornerstone of this young up-and-comer's campaign to keep traditional roots reggae alive. Excited to listen to the rest of his upcoming album, "Roots Sensation," release date, TBD.
Music Video: Now That You Got It - Gwen Stefani ft. Damian Marley
Not sure if this is new or old, but I just found it and I dig it so I thought Id share. The track is "Now That You Got It" by Gwen Stefani ft. Damian Marley. For all of the guest appearances Damian does, I dont think I've ever been disappointed! Make sure to catch him on his upcoming tour with Stephen Marley.

Tarrus Riley & JukeBoxx Productions — "The Limit"
The latest Tarrus Riley single comes from JukeBoxx Productions. It's good to hear such a smooth love jam from Tarrus again. Making me reminisce on other classics like "Intimate Reservation" - it almost seems like it's been too long from the legend...

Marley Africa Road Trip
A friend recently turned me on to the six part series Marley Africa Road Trip. The mini series follows brothers Ziggy, Rohan, and Robbie Marley as they ride motorcycles through Africa during the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. The journey, inspired by their fathers vision of African unity, gives a great window into the Marley legacy in Africa as well as the lives of 3 of his children as they attempt to hold a free concert to celebrate Bob's music 30 years after his own expedition to Africa to play at the Zimbabwe Independence Concert. So far I have really enjoyed the show, and especially getting to know Ziggy beyond his music. Also cool to see some of the lesser known Marley son's doing their thing outside the world of music. I highly recommend for anyone interested and must admit that I now have a desire to roadtrip on a motorcycle as well. Check it out on NETFLIX and find out more info at Marleyafricaroadtrip.com. As the motto of the journey goes.. "Only The Willing"
