Keith Brown, a leading player in the rock steady revival of the 1990s, died in New York City on July 19 at age 82. Brown and business partner Michael Barnett operated MKB Productions, promoters of the successful Heineken Startime and Startime shows for 18 years in Jamaica. Heineken Startime had a golden run during the 1990s, packing venues in Kingston and rural Jamaica as fans were re-introduced to music from the 1960s and 1970s. Those live events resuscitated the careers of artists who were not seen in Jamaica for many years, including The Melodians, The Techniques, Eric “Monty” Morris, and Joseph Hill of Culture. @NorthReggae bringing music to the people www.reggaenorthca.com #reggeanews #music #reggaemusic #music #reggea #bobmarley #legend #king #reggae #reggaemusic #jamaica #roots #rasta #bestreggaemusic #tarrusriley #reggae #love #reggaemusic #jamaica #roots #rasta #bestreggaemusic

Veteran dancehall deejay Fyahnese is formerly known as Japanese, recently released his latest single, Congratulations. The song which applauds those who have contributed to the betterment of the black race is written and produced by Fyahnese. It is released on the Fyahnese Music Productions label and is available on all leading online stores. “I don’t believe we can ever give enough praise for the people who have contributed to the upliftment of us as a people”, he said. “Though we still have a long way to go, we have to take time out congratulate and thank them for their efforts.” He commends the fight and courage of today’s young people and watching groups like Black Lives Matter taking charge and getting results inspired him to write this song. “In comparison to where we use to be, we have accomplished a lot as a race,” he said.
