Acclaimed reggae band Dubtonic Kru and respected reggae vocalist Iba Mahr have decided to go ‘Somewhere Inna Africa’ for Black History Month on the Motherland Riddim.
The track, which is to be released this week, is the collaborators’ effort to sensitize their fans on black history and is a fitting addition to the Black History Month playlists.
Delmar Drummond, head of Danger Zone Rebirth says,
“The collaboration between Danger Zone Rebirth and Dubtonic Crew has been long in coming with our evolution taking a similar course as theirs.
My mentor John McKinley, of Di Kru Productions, is one of the founders of the band and I have always had a close affiliation with the band so this project is a natural development in both our evolution.”
