The Kingston-born poet, singer, producer and conscious revolutionary, Kabaka Pyramid, says that his journey in music has a higher purpose, not just to get rich or popular, but to inspire a higher vibration in whoever listens. It’s a vibration well received by his global fan-base, grown up through a decade of extensive touring across international festivals and reggae stages, placing him in a key position in the reggae revival movement, assimilating hip-hop, soul, dancehall and the way that things are today, into classic reggae still empowered by respect for the positive political and spiritual messages that poured out in the era of the great breakthrough roots artists of the ‘70s and ‘80s. His third album, The Kalling, produced in collaboration with Damian ‘Jr Gong’ Marley, picked up the Best Reggae Album Award at the 2023 Grammys.
