Treasure the title track on Midnite’s first album on the VP Records label and it is one you must listen to very clearly. Anyone that listens to Midnite Knows they have very prophetic lyrics in there music. The song Treasure mentions the fact that eating so-called vegetarian foods are dangerous in these times along with lots of other valuable information you may only hear through there music. Track 4 “Rastafari Now” is like a modern day hymnal delivered very solid by lead singer with mystical voice “Vaughn” calling all Rastafarians all color, race, and creed. Through all the wars and negative chant Rastafari Now is the message. When you get into songs like Germawi, Yield Turn Out, and Rastar its like a musical history book being brought to life through the music of one of the best Reggae bands in the land. One of the tuffest tunes “Gather Them In” rounds out another Midnite collectors album. On the track “Humble Man” reflects back to one of the greatest Reggae Bands Black Uhuru. Like any other I could go on but this is surely a album I give one of the highest ratings. It’s what the gospels in the Bible are supposed to be. The album is a Five Star, Sure Shot, %94 cause nothing is perfect and there is always room for improvement.
JAH MASON/LUTAN FYAH COMING SOON
JAH MASON-KEEP YA HEAD UP
Vaughn Benjamin of Midnite
self-produced this powerfully unique collection of tunes recorded in
St. Croix alongside great musicians such as Kenyatta Itola, Edmund
Filleteau and Tippy I. Check out the heavyweight rumbling of "Citadel"
and the mystical tones and message of "Mexicanadamerica". Check this
latest chapter in the Midnite body of works.
Vaughn Benjamin explores new
sonic territory on this largely self-produced release recorded in his
own Frederiksted studio. Alongside producer/engineer Jahronie, bassist
Kenyatta Itola and guitarist Edmund, Vaughn Benjamin has crafted a
sound unlike any other - with layers of drum syncopation, heavy bass
lines and intriguing instrumentation.
This project is a follow-up
release to "Better World Rasta" and like that powerful album, these new
works feature production by the legendary Black Uhuru. Supplemented
with some strong arrangements by Vaughn Benjamin, Jahronie and Dean
Fishback, this album is excellent from start to finish. Check out the
single "Make it In Time" that is currently in heaving rotation in the
VI. Crucial new Midnite album for the healing of the nations!
LUTAN FYAH-AFRICAN BE PROUD
Another Rastar compilation
featuring kings of modern roots: Midnite, Turbulence, Norrisman, Jah
Mason & Lutan Fyah. This one features several
previously-unreleased Midnite tunes that you'll find no where else.
Vaughn Benjamin words sound and
classic reggae riddims make for an unforgettable collection of songs.
From the opening track – with Vaughn's indelible lyrical stamp on top
of a bona fide Black Uhuru riddim – you know that this is a special
album. Better World Rasta also features several of Vaughn Benjamin's
own productions, with musicians like Ronnie Benjamin, Tyrone "T-Rock"
Davis and Tippy I laying down heavy soundscapes. A must-have.
The Rastar
Records presents this powerful riddim album that features some of the
top artists out of the VI and Jamaica. Several big tunes over this
rootsy, upful riddim - such as Niyorah's "We Shall See", Midnite's "Gi
Dem" and a classic cut by Gregory Issacs called "Save Ethiopia." This
compilation shows that the oneness of Rastafari-Reggae music is bigger
than any one island. Highly recommended - especially for DJs.
