Busy Signal tries to fill the gap - Artiste works on reggae album because young musicians neglect genre




In trying to save what many believe is a dying genre, dancehall artiste Busy Signal will be doing a full reggae album.
Speaking with the artiste's manager Shane Brown on Friday, he explained that Busy Signal was currently working on a one-drop reggae album that should be ready for release by the last quarter of this year.
"Busy has the talent to do different genres of music. A lot of people give up on reggae but we a raise the reggae flag. You can't go nowhere outside of Jamaica and don't hear reggae," he told noting that the album is being produced by himself, Donovan Germaine and Busy Signal.
"When people from overseas come to Jamaica and not hear reggae, it's like a culture shock. He has a lot of reggae fans so that's why he is so frequent in Europe and the Caribbean."
Brown said there is an even greater push to do a complete reggae album because there is a demand for it that is not being fulfilled locally.
