Rasta Got Soul with Fantan Mojah

Everything Rastafari Promotions and Knak Dem Out Productions Presents Rasta Got Soul with Fantan Mojah. International Jamaican Reggae artist Fantan Mojah will be performing live in concert Saturday March 16th at Moe's Alley in Santa Cruz, Ca along with raising Jamaican reggae artist Prestige, Jah Warri, Xsample and Zareb. This will be a full band show back by the Four the hard Way Band. Tickets are $15 Advance at Moe's Alley and $20 at the door. 

Fantan Mojah is notable for being one of the new wave of contemporary reggae singers who prefer to include positive themes in their lyrics. Like some popular new reggae singers, he is a Bobo Ashanti. His faith is reflected in his lyrics, where some recurring themes are - praise for Jah and messages of Rastafari, positive portrayal of women, and condemnation of ill morals. This is a contrast to many popular dance hall artists, who encourage "slackness" in their lyrics, with boasts of sexual prowess and derogatory messages to women.

Mikey General Releases African Story Video

(Kingston, Jamaica) The General Mikey, or Mikey General as he is more popularly known, got together with recording artist and video director Khali Taylor a couple weeks ago to work on the official video for his track, “African Story”. The outcome is simply amazing. The video much like the song speaks to the importance of informing people of African descent about their true history, the African history, not the American history (which is often the tale).  Persons may watch the video here: LINK  Operators of Blogs and websites may download an original copy of the video for posting on their site: HERE

We are seeking interviews for veteran Reggae singer Mikey General, conscious female Dancehall artist, Karamanti and Reggae singer, Khali Taylor.  

Media houses are asked to contact Maria Jackson Entertainment to schedule an interview with any of the aforementioned artists. Our email address is mariajacksonent@gmail.com and the phone number is (876) 313-6319.

Reggae museum design should've been open to competition

By Chris Whyms-Stone, Guest Columnist - Jamaica Gleaner Reggae

I have never met Mr Michael Thompson, but have been a follower of his fine graphic works for some time. So like others with whom I have spoken, I, too, was surprised at his Gleaner article of Tuesday ('Gehry Reggae Museum - no insult intended', February 20, 2013).  I believe Ms Louise McLeod's concern in her Gleaner article ('Hall of Fame Museum', January 29, 2013) is the very fact that Jamaican culture is global. There is a concern that, though thinking big, Mr Thompson is thinking narrowly, seemingly overcome by passion for his Bob Marley of architecture, Frank Gehry. There are many buildings designed by Frank Gehry which we will never hear about. The reality is that well-designed buildings change cities all over the world.  Mr Thompson must answer why he bothered to have a poster design competition when a talented graphic designer like himself, or a world-famous graphic designer like Eddie Opara or Chip Kidd, could be asked to do one. Surely an auctioned poster designed by Famous Graphic Artist X could pull some attention and fund-raising proceeds to go towards a Reggae Hall of Fame Museum.

There have been, for some time, plans to have a Reggae Hall of Fame Museum in Jamaica. For a long time, there was much indecision as to whether to build it on the glitzy north coast in order to benefit from the tourist enterprises or to build it in gritty Kingston where reggae was born and raised. I believe the correct decision to locate the museum in Kingston was taken, tough the location in the capital city is still undecided.  Reggae is one of many Jamaican contributions to the world and has become part of the global culture. The history of reggae's precedents, founding and players has long been a culturally sought-after experience, both at the academic level and in the streets. That the music, whose spiritual origin in praising the gospel of Rastafari continues to remain locally and internationally relevant, is a testimony to its value and importance. Marcus Garvey was right when he said we can accomplish what we will.  On the contrary, the decision to open a competition to celebrate the diversity, explore the opportunities and ultimately select the best design, was taken. That is the sort of big, wide thinking which reggae has come to represent.
