Description
Jah Meek was born and grew up in Robin's Bay on Jamaica's northeast coast in 1971. However, despite singing on local sound systems, he did not want to be a part of the hustling culture around local dub cutting studios on the island, prefering more spiritual vibes.
Jah Meek visited Germany for the first time in 1994 and began to work with artists around the Frankfurt dub and dancehall scene. In 1999 he joined the band Movements and toured all the big European festivals such as Summer Jam, Chiemsee Reggae Festival and even the prestigious Rock Am Ring festival.
This is a noteworthy debut album that brings the listener 15 conscious tunes, all well arranged and expertly produced by Chris Scheidl, Sam Gilly and Jah Meek himself. The acoustic album opener is a good introduction to Jah Meek's vocal and lyrical abilities. Here the singer shows that he possesses a sweet and pure voice and that he can write a decent, meaningful song.
Included on this set is a stunning combination with Luciano, "Everything Is Possible", and also the solid "How Far You Are", which sees Jah Meek teaming up with Jahmali. With this debut album Jah Meek fully shows that he's a notable newcomer in the reggae arena.
