Musically Speaking

Description

Introducing "Musically Speaking," the latest masterpiece from legendary Jamaican roots reggae artist, I-Taweh. This album is a profound testament to I-Taweh’s musical odyssey, deeply rooted in his upbringing amidst the hills of St. Ann, Jamaica. Raised in Prickly Pole, just a few miles from Bob Marley's Nine Mile, I-Taweh spent his formative years immersed in the rhythms of farming and music, shaping his authentic sound and narrative prowess. Renowned as a legendary guitarist and bassist, with credits including Sade, Capleton, and Luciano, and as a member of the Mystic Revelation of Rastafari and the global Playing For Change movement, I-Taweh embarks on a solo journey once again with his fourth album. As the pandemic began, I-Taweh sought solace on his farm, dedicating four transformative years to crafting "Musically Speaking." This opus showcases his evolution as a multifaceted artist, featuring collaborations with esteemed Jamaican musicians such as "Beezy" Coleman, Courtney "Bam" Deidrick, and Dean Frasier. From the evocative, blues-infused "Long Road Home," featuring Mermans Mosengo's vocals and harmonica, to the rhythmic complexities of "The Capital," each song offers a window into I-Taweh’s diverse musical palette and personal journey. As a solo artist, I-Taweh's commitment to social justice and human rights resonates through his lyrics and compositions. His debut album, "Overload," garnered widespread acclaim, reflecting his unique fusion of Jamaican roots and global influences. With "Musically Speaking," I-Taweh continues to be a captivating force on the global stage, blending profound lyricism, a dynamic stage presence, and unparalleled talent. From soul-stirring ballads like "Sweet Caroline" to the infectious island rhythms of "Feel Like" and "Higher," his music transcends borders, spreading love and unity to all who listen. This album is a testament to I-Taweh's artistry, blending roots reggae with a distinct 70's flavor.
