STOP FOR A MOMENT AND CHECK OUT "LOVE ABOVE ALL"


 

Zoe Mazah – Love Above All is produced by Boomrush Productions. With just one track on the listing, Love Above All reads like a focused Zoe Mazah statement rather than a sprawling project, and that suits her warm, soul-leaning reggae style.

The Liberian-German singer has long worked in that space where roots, nu-soul and dub sit comfortably together, and Boomrush Productions frames this one around her voice instead of crowding it with extras. That’s the useful detail here: this isn’t about big guest-versus-guest energy, it’s about letting the song carry the message on its own.  Family hit that >> GO BUTTON<< and check out :  LOVE ABOVE ALL



Zoe Mazah blends roots reggae, soul, dub and nu-soul into a deeply moving sound that bridges her African roots and European influences. With five albums, two EPs, numerous singles and collaborations with artists such as Ky-Mani Marley, Alborosie, Anthony B and Randy Valentine, as well as two German Reggae Awards (including Best Female Artist, best Reggae Album National), she is now considered one of the key voices in the German reggae scene. Her songs speak of identity, hope and inner strength – and live she creates a vibe that lifts you up, sweeps you along and lingers long after the last note.




BOOK CLUB PICK: 100 Classic reggae Albums 1968 -1973: Featuring Over 250 45s




The book presents an authoritative collection of 100 classic reggae albums, highlighting over 250 notable singles that contributed to the creation of these albums, providing a substantial overview of the significant releases during the formative years of reggae. The connoisseurs of Jamaican music often citing the period as the golden age of reggae or the Boss Reggae years. Trojan, Pama, and Island released numerous albums, many of which have been overlooked for over fifty years. At the time, most of these albums were not widely purchased due to the ability of few people to afford buying several albums per month.





The book is not a top 100, as there is no established criterion for defining a classic album, particularly within reggae. Each artist has a distinct identity, such as the falsetto voice of Eric Donaldson, the style of The Maytals led by Fredrick 'Toots' Hibbert’s vocals, or The Pioneers influenced by producer Leslie Kong.




100 Classic Reggae Albums is a celebration of some of the finest recordings and a snapshot on the early years of reggae from 1968 -1973. The albums are arranged by year of release, though not strictly in chronological order, to provide a balanced representation between artist albums and various artist compilations. This arrangement showcases the development of reggae music over time.




Numerous other exceptional reggae albums exist, and some favourites may be absent. Discerning readers will note that an additional four albums have been included but the title 104 Reggae Albums didn't quite cut it. The book will serve as a valuable resource for those interested in reflecting on the history of reggae or discovering these classic works for the first time.

The visualizer for the song follows a cinematic yet minimalistic color palette with an artistic use of light and shadows to convey the emotions of the song.
