Martei Korley's "Climate War" is a call to action for the preservation of planet earth. Environmental degradation leads conflict over our natural resources: Climate War (We nuh waan).
“DIA” Pronounced (Jah) takes the Reggae mastery of one of its foremost African ambassadors to a new level. It is beautifully crafted and full of passion for music and message, sounding pouncing riddims and sweet harmonies to Jah (Dia) rising sun. Yet, it is much more than just another excellent Reggae album. Meta Dia offers hidden pathways to social healing – or “salvation” – as Rastas, Sufis, and all other spiritual Reggae Aficionados may have it.
Beware, many of (DIA) tracks take you to the dark side of this time and planet – racism, poverty, war, destruction of the environment. But it does not leave you in the valley of rage and revenge. Meta leads his followers to the final destination, the valley of decision, where good wins over evil.
His lyrical rivers of wisdom are fed by many tributaries, the nomadic mystic traditions of his Fulani forebears, the Rastafari I-sights based on the teachings of Ras Tafari and the wise men of the East, so prominent in his beloved Senegal. Yes, Meta sues for justice. Not only for Africans from his mother continent, but for all the “wretched of the earth”. But his bottom line is in line with so many great minds: “Just like the breeze, forgiveness will make us heal.”
It comes at a crucial time with so many destructive “signs of the time”: Wars and violence in the false name of religions or cultures, separating the one human race into ever-more fierce adversaries and foes, and selfish nations anything but united.
Meta Dia hammers the walls of division to create space for his doctrine of “Peace, Love and Harmony” – against all odds. For him, this is not a safe space of fake consolation or unconditional reconciliation.
Quite to the contrary: this Reggae album is a yet another wake-up call to come together on a basis of equal rights and justice; for there is no other way of togetherness. With this fundamental mission Meta joins the ranks of the all-time Greats in Reggae. Who could be more predestined for this “mission impossible” than a Muslim Fulani Dread, full of Rasta vibes. Here comes trouble for the warmongers. With a superb package filled with the finest sounds and ideas from Dakar to Jamaica to New York and the rest of the globe.

Hello, World!
“Everything” is the first single from Tuff Like Iron’s upcoming Unbreakable EP. A captivating lovers anthem fusing Reggae, R&B, and Pop flavors. It is guaranteed to burn up the summer charts and playlists!
The record is called “ALL IN THIS TOGETHER”, and in Italian it could be translated as "All on the same boat", in the sense, "all in this situation / experience". Not only because the album was completely created and recorded with my band, the Livity band, in the studio and played live all together, but also in a broader sense aimed at humanity. In the last two years we have all found ourselves like the majority of ordinary people to face vicissitudes that have revolutionized, for better or for worse, society and our lifestyle. Nobody could escape this forced change and therefore we faced this change all together.
The album has been entirely realized and made in Italy, showing how reggae music is well produced in Italy: recorded at Cambusa Wave Studio in Reggio Emilia, produced by Bizzarri and played by some of the best musicians of the Italian reggae scene, 'All In This Together' can be considered as the consecration album of Lion D as singer, author and voice of a generation witnessing the growth of reggae music in the underground world and its incorporation into commercial music , somehow losing its original meaning. With this album Lion D proves to be faithful to what reggae music represents and he Is still able to touch souls with his music, fifteen years after the release of his first album.
