Hailed as the "Righteous Ambassador", he was recently awarded the JHMA 2008 Rising Star Award. His music message is diverse in range as it is in
the reality of the human experience. It ranges from an indictment of societal ills and misdeeds in neglecting the plight of our poor and downtrodden; senseless ghetto wars and deaths of our vital youths; to positive messages in the upliftment of women; and embracing Rastafari love and truth in livety.

Born Michael Bogle in Kingston, Jamaica on December 15, 1976, I Righteous
is no newcomer to reggae music. He is the first grandson of the "Father of
Reggae Music", the Legendary Joe Higgs. Joe Higgs helped to create
reggae music and masterfully taught this music to some of Jamaica's most
profound veteran artists including the "King of Reggae", Bob Marley & The
Wailers, Jimmy Cliff, and Peter Tosh.

Music is not only in his heritage, but reggae has embodied I Righteous
existence for some time. Throughout his life, I Righteous has been honing his musical skills, dedicating an endless amount of time to developing his unique style, melodious voice and lyrical genius. The result is a powerhouse voice, evoking control, versatility, and masterful delivery.
