In celebration of the annual 4/20 holiday, “High Society Reggae”, a digital compilation of new ganja themed songs will be released on April 20th, 2018 on Dub Rockers, an imprint of VP Records. In addition to the anticipated release, two events will be held in Los Angeles and Brooklyn that same week.
“High Society Reggae” is set to become a staple for ganja and reggae lovers with music from Alborosie, Macka B and brand new tracks by New Kingston with “A Likkle Bit Ah Herb” featuring Rebelution’s Eric Rachmany playing lead guitar. The Simpkin Project’s new, self-produced “Meditation” is another standout track. The son of legendary Jamaican producer Bobby Digital, Giark’s “Papi” includes production credits from Bobby Digital and members of the Grammy nominated Raging Fyah.
The album also features Shinobi Ninja, Through The Roots, Irie Souljah, Autarchii, Soul Rebel Project, Lion Fiyah, and Green Lion Crew who recently released the ‘Life Over Death’ remix project with Chronixx.
Celebrating the album release with two launch events on April 19th, Alborosie will be performing at Union Club in Los Angeles, California (Tickets), while in Brooklyn, NY, Giark, Autarchii and Green Lion Crew will be performing at Milk River (Tickets.) Complimentary “High Society Reggae” rolling paper will be given to patrons in attendance.
