Today we remember and celebrate the life of Jimmy Cliff, the reggae legend who passed away at 81. His music, from “Many Rivers to Cross” to “You Can Get It If You Really Want” and his iconic “I Can See Clearly Now”, carried messages of hope, resilience, and unity.

Daily Reggae caught up with reggae icon, Jimmy Cliff, to learn about the creation of his incredible new album, “Refugees”, and to hear his advice for up-and-coming artists.

Reggae icon Jimmy Cliff shines in his new album, “Refugees”. Cliff has one of the deepest reggae music catalogs and best voices across all music genres. “Refugees” is a gorgeous album that has the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer touch on so many important topics. The quality of the album is a perfect example of why I’m so proud to be a reggae music fan. Cliff is a generational talent and this is an album I’ll be listening to often!
