Super-positive, upful , cultural, CONSCIOUS roots reggae, dancehall, & hip hop designed to uplift and inspire the People of the World to health, happiness, well
Jahson Ites' super-positive lyrics & conscious message are the perfect match for his authentic roots reggae sound & rugged dancehall & hip-hop vibes. He gets the People up and dancing, waving their hands in the air, and singing along to songs they've never heard before. Jahson Ites is known for his super-positive lyrics and energetic stageshow, whether he's singing with a live band or has a selector running riddims. Jahson Ites tears up the dancehall, inspiring the people to dance 'til they're about to drop, jump up in the air, and shout out for pure joy, leaving copious amounts of sweat and smiles in his wake. Whether he's performing solo or as the core of the Sick Donkey Records Conscious Music Showcase with his Idren Essential I, Huckleberry, and BlueJay (aka DJ Sticky), who make up his crew FiyaCrackah Sound, Jahson Ites' stageshow has been an awakening, life-changing experience for many, as evidenced at Seattle Hempfest 2008 on the Seeley Memorial Stage. "Foward Outta Babylon is one of the best debut albums to come along in many years. Jahson Ites, Essential I, Bluejay, with special guests Adrian Xavier and Dub Champions and the Legendary Bill Ortiz on Trumpet, all blend together to make this sound like an album created in the spirit of Linton "Kwesi" Johnson, Steel Pulse and even Peter Tosh! This album should give us all faith that Positive Lyrics and Conscious Messages can reach some new highs, and will open up a whole next generation's eyes and minds. Powerful, Positive and Insightful!" -- Steffen Franz aka Stand Out Selector Producer "Forward Outta Babylon" President Positive Sound Massive Recordings/Independent Distribution Collective
