“Kes, the Soca collective hailing from the vibrant isle of Trinidad and Tobago, have done that with their new long player “Man With No Door”. This effort for me was both my introduction to them, and a chance to know what’s gonna be popping as we move into everyone’s favorite time of the year.”

Mike Love’s highly anticipated new album “Leaders” is due out this July. The LP set to be released on July 5 follows Love’s 2016 album, “Love Overflowing” and 2015’s “Love Will Find a Way”. Love is one of the most talented singer-songwriters in music today, and his guitar / live looping skills are one of a kind!

Congratulations to Buju Banton for “BORN FOR GREATNESS” being named the 2023 Daily Reggae Album of the Year! The Jamaican superstar sings with such a soulful voice, and he is an amazing lyricist / storyteller. This album’s production is top notch across the board.

Chardel Rhoden shines so bright in the singer-songwriter’s amazing new album, “Growth”. The album showcases the artist’s heart, stellar vocals and wisdom. The album starts with “Couldn’t Ask For More”, a song about staying thankful for life and everything we have to be grateful for.

Daily Reggae spoke with reggae legend, Alborosie about the artist’s amazing new album, “Destiny”, his collaboration with musicians like Kabaka Pyramid, and life touring around the world. Read the full review now!

Jamaican superstar Buju Banton proves once again he is “BORN FOR GREATNESS” in the artist’s latest album. Banton sings with such a soulful voice, and he is an amazing lyricist / storyteller. This album’s production is top notch across the board.

The ultra-smooth Orange County quartet known as Common Kings are back to put their signature island vibes into the pop-reggae scene with a brand new album fittingly titled CELEBRATION. Almost two years in the making and filtered down from an incredible 120 songs to just 12, CELEBRATION aims to get you in the mood to shake around and sing aloud!

What does your teenage emo pop punk playlist have in common with reggae music? Absolutely nothing … until now! The extremely talented vocalist and lead guitarist of Iya Terra, Nathan Aurora, has created a project and successfully bridged the gap, composing a compilation of some of your favorite songs from a distant past performed by a new community of artists that put their own reggae twist to each of them.

Reggae superstar Collie Buddz’s new album “Take It Easy” is almost here! The singer-songwriter recently released his latest single, “You Around” and the vibes are so nice! Collie is without a doubt one of the most talented performers in the world across genres and he continues releasing feel good tracks with so much heart.

What do The Elovaters, Kyle Smith, Iya Terra, HIRIE, Tropidelic and Bumpin Uglies have in common? If you guessed that they’ve all got a spot on Ballyhoo!’s fiery new album, Shellshock, you’re entirely correct.  The Maryland based rockin’ reggae veterans have completed their latest collection of powerful songs with the help of some well-known friends.

Every once in a while, there’s an album created that’s just full to the brim with tracks that could easily be top notch singles, every last one of them, as if it were a “greatest hits” compilation. The Elovaters have decided to drop an album that lives up to that exact description!

Reach for higher heights with Rasta Rick’s “Bird Of Paradise”. The beautiful song about being our best self, reaching for goals and enjoying the journey is one of the jamming tracks off the “Bird Of Paradise Riddim (Big Bus Riddim Series Vol. 1)” album.

Did you miss our Daily Reggae Review Week last week? The DR team took on 7 reviews in 7 days to cover some of our reggae artists including Maoli, Claire Wright, Surfergirl, Micah Shemaiah, and more! Check them all out here!

Three years after their last album, Maoli is back with a family-sized helping of new music to binge on, bringing a fresh spin to their already impressive sound. “Maoli Music Overload” is a massive, nineteen-song album that effortlessly touches many of your favorite genres, all fused up and reimagined with an island vibe.

Review week carries. Back in the airwaves with a bagful of new songs to show the world it’s no one-hit-wonder, Surfer Girl solidifies its presence with a brand new sophomore album titled, “Noon”.

“Setting Out for the Sun” showcases Claire Wright’s creativity, chill vibes, and big time voice. The 10-track album, released by Ineffable Records, highlights Wright’s talent as a singer-songwriter and beautifully blends pop, rock and reggae in an all around relaxing experience.

You may or may not have heard the name yet, but chances are if you’re into the American reggae genre of music, you will! Since mid-2021, Michael Sky has been busy recording and releasing track after track, gaining huge traction with reggae-lovers everywhere.

Reggae legend Johnny Osbourne’s latest album, “Right Right Time” is an instant classic. The talented singer songwriter teamed up with the French Connexion Band and the collaboration created a fresh sound that is amongst the best new reggae that I’ve heard in recent years.

With so much incredible reggae music out and tons of new albums to listen to, the Daily Reggae Team is excited to present our latest Daily Reggae Review Week! We’ve reviewed seven albums and will drop one new review for seven days starting on July 30th.
