LATEST RELEASES AVAILABLE ON OUR WEBSTORE

Apr. 8, 2005 - DANCEHALL (If you like Elephant Man, Sean Paul or Beenie Man):

Just one look at our Lionofzion.com charts for the last month and it is clear that "Dancehall runs tings." That's right, the top seven spots in our last month's sales charts are all held by today's best gospel reggae deejays. With new offerings from Bless (A.K.A. Prodigal Son), Septimus, Gospel Fi Share, Mr. Lynx, Sherwin Gardner, Goddy Goddy, DJ Counsellor, and Shadrach, fans of this genre finally have something to be proud of. To see get to these albums simply click on the STORE tab and then type the artist's name in the SEARCH box.

ROOTS (If you like Bob Marley, Gregory Isaacs or Luciano):

There are some of you out there that feel that nothing (including dancehall) can test the true foundation of reggae. You don't want to deal with the stems and branches--you want the ROOTS. If this describes you, then you may want to test out the latest contributions from acts like Jamaica's Katalys Crew, Bermuda's Geneman and my favorite, Puerto Rico's Leon De Juda. You also may want to check out the "Roots Gospel" and "Unity Riddim Sessions" compilations. While dancehall may be a flash in the pan, you can rest assured knowing that good roots will endure for decades (if not longer).

DUB (If you like Lee Perry, King Tubby or Bill Laswell):

True Roots cannot survive (or better yet thrive) without "Good Soil." And no one can deny that the most authentic and traditional roots reggae to be found in the gospel arena is located in the DUB bin. Dub is the cornerstone of reggae and heralded by the most committed of reggae enthusiasts. While gospel dub reggae has been relatively scarce over the past few years, the last 5 months have given us three epic dub releases courtesy of Mark Mohr and Christafari, Solomon Jabby and newcomer Jah Servant.

Other recent releases worth mentioning are Olivia Pale's, Hevani, Landlord's, We Need Peace and Isaac Blackman's, In Your Eyes. At Lionofzion.com, our customers give us the highest ratings for customer service, prompt deliveries, and clean positive music! With new releases added regularly, LionofZion.com has the world's largest selection of gospel reggae & world music. So what are you waiting for?
