Alborosie, Kingston Town

I am totally loving this themed week. Reggae is so cool and alive, it's always a pleasure to talk about music that fulfills so many people!!

I did heard about Alborosie a few months ago when my little bro asked me to find his discography and this song got stuck in my head. Today in a conversation with one of my best friends she suggested me a few reggae names and Alborosie was one of them, of course I had to use it!

He is an italian singer who had his own band "Reggae National Tickets" which was pretty successful in Italy. Later, the lider now Alborosie (before known as Stena) moved to Jamaica and was well received on the reggae circuit and got know all around the world especially with his songs "Kingston Town" and "Herbalist".

Besides his reggae career, he is a sound engineer since 2000. He had already work with Sade, Wyclef, Amy Winehouse. His famous collaborations are with reggae musicians like Angie Stone and Manu Chao.
He already worked as a producer for artists like 50 Cent and Shakira.

"Dis a di gun land,
blood run cold blood pon di white sand
concrete a bun put some pads up your chin
bad babylon bwoy dem kill a youth an one old woman a
chant
an while a neck sit a monster di rat-ta-ta-tan-ta"

I hope you all enjoy my choice for today!

Peace and ♥
