It
is a time-honored tradition at RAS
Records to be the first to take a chance on an artist whom we know has
great potential and will one day find a place among the most-treasured
"greats" of reggae music.
From our first release with Peter Broggs to featuring early work by
Ini Kamoze, Mikey Spice, Sizzla, Luciano and a host of other stars, you
can always trust we are looking out for the hottest new talent to warm up
your stereo.
Some of our best new performers have emerged through the strong
relationship RAS has developed with producer Phillip
"Fatis" Burrell and his Jamaica-based Exterminator label.
RAS releasing the latest album from
the-one-people-are-talking-about Prince
Malachi (produced by none other than Fatis Burrell), is just a way we
are continuing a great custom.
Watch
Over We presents an artist surprisingly mature both vocally and
lyrically.
At times, he is spiritual and reflective, such as we hear on the
title track and "Meditation Time," and his optimistic spirit
comes through on tracks like "We'll Be Strong."
The perfect blend of roots intention, inspiring words, a sweet but
strong voice and an extremely addictive rhythm can be found on the cut
"Fishers of Men."
No matter what the interpreted intent of his songs, Prince
Malachi is undeniably matched just right with the likes of Sly
and Robbie, Dean Fraser, Nambo and Jazzwad. Malachi
also shines on duets with Lion
("Universal Pain") and Prince
Bob ("River Nile"), proving his versatility and bringing out
his complimentary skills.
Watch
Over We could be called Watch
Out For He- for Prince
Malachi is surely an artist we need to be keeping an eye on and
an ear to in the new millenium.
