Today we're going to take a look and listen back to an album which now interests me in two significant ways in which it didn't initially. Still, back then it did have a great interest as I had, by the time it reached, found myself specifically waiting for the record for the better part of a couple of years and having had even more experience, looking back, with this artist, an album was something he was clearly working towards. 

But these days, I really look back at what it was and I'm more impressed today than I was three months ago, which is saying a great deal for an album I reviewed at a 4.5/5. On top of that, I don't think that it would ultimately get the respect that it deserved.

 While the chanter wasn't/isn't the biggest of names, he certainly has a very well earned reputation and I'd love to see this set do well, if it hasn't already. Today we go back and Rewind! "A New Day" by Jah Marnyah.

Healers are the most beneficial beings on this planet, don't you agree? Treating physical and/ or mental ailments, they dedicate their lives to make us feel better and thus deserve our deepest respect. Who knows where we would stand today (or if we'd stand at all) had it not been for the wise-women, herbalists and doctors who cured our ancestors and keep looking for remedies against the diseases of our times. On a mission to bring us musical healing, Pierre Nanon a.k.a. Cali P has just released an EP called Healing Of The Nation on the Hemp Higher label.
While his last release Unstoppable (2011) was leaning heavily toward HipHop & Dancehall, the present album bears proof of the spiritual home the singer found in Jamaica. Unmistakably depicted in the cover, it is deeply rooted in Reggae, presenting nine tracks of as diverse producers as Evidence Music (Switzerland), Jugglerz & Junior Blender (Germany) or Pharfar & Jahdil (Denmark). This multiple provenance assures a refreshing variety of sound, so there should be something in for every ear!
The EP starts with My Home, yet another homage to the mystic Mama Africa. It is easily the best track on the album, the beautiful instrumentation providing a perfect background for Cali P's mature voice, sweet background singers included. The problem with such a grand entry is that, inevitably, the following songs have a hard time living up to the high expectations thus raised. Wha Gwaan, for instance, isn't as melodious as the first track, but might appeal to those who value toasting qualities; it gives us a short overview about the singer's biography, and we learn that he's only 29, that he grew up in the Caribbean and made his first steps as an artist in Switzerland, acting as an MC for the Gideon Soldiers Soundsystem. In for a taste of his lyrics? "Let's try make it better for each other, instead of looking down on the brother." is taken from Bed Of Roses, a pensive reflection on the difficulties life has up it's sleeve sometimes. This young man is undeniably a conscious artist, a fact he proves again in Solution. It's a plea for wealthy people to remember where they come from and think about the poor.
I Am Bless, One Step and Carry The Load are average pieces, both musically and lyrically, but the next track United We Stand is highly interesting. The arrhythmic percussions stick out at once, apparently off beat; however, the more closely you listen, the more they blend into the song. Good job, Teka (Rootdown Music)!
Closing the album, the title track has the potential to rock the live shows that are hopefully lying ahead. "Let there be vibes, cause music is the healing of the nation." is a chorus line as true as it is easy to pick up and chant along. People come on!
In case you are craving for more, rest assured you won't have to wait long: for three years now, the artist has been working incessantly on a new album entitled musi Calis Peaking, and given the list of producers (Sheldon Stewart, Craigy and Bobby Digital), the upcoming thing will be well worth the wait. Yes, we want more healing!

Dear Billy is a compilation of songs pertaining to different stages and situations in life. "After Another" talks about struggles with alcoholism and other addictions while Dear Billy addresses his independent movement as he is not signed to any specific management or label. 

Dear Billy talks about how I refuse to sign with anyone if [the deal] is not able to take care of my kids," said Spawnbreezie. He is serious about his career and is ready to take it to the next level. He also features some new Polynesian talent on three tracks - the upbeat "I'm in Love" features Celle, "Main Squeeze" features Teeh and "Oh My Goodness" features Big Steve. 

Both Teeh and Big Steve are singers from Missouri and are a part of Breeze Camp. Spawnbreezie says he is most proud of this third album and is excited to perform these new songs for fans.

 The Dear Billy Album Release Tour already commenced this past Friday in Tacoma, WA and will continue on to Portland, Sacramento, San Francisco, Anaheim, Las Vegas, select cities in Arizona, Utah, Texas and finally end in Missouri.

Our sound is rooted in reggae rhythms and blended with a variety of other styles including rock as well as funk. 

Originally deep-rooted in the more traditional roots and foundation of Reggae that helped build their reputation as a serious act, their music began to take a direction toward a more modern, spaced-out sound with an occasional blend of the traditional.
