Bio:
Michael Rose
From his early solo work for Niney the Observer through a trailblazing stint as lead singer of Black Uhuru - netting reggae music itÕs first Grammy - to his magnificent later solo work, Michael Rose has consistently remained at the helm of one of reggaeÕs most far - reaching sounds. He can always be counted on to be challenging, topical, musically expansive and lyrically visionary - no small feat in a genre that sets aside old styles like ska, rock steady, roots and dub for the rest of the world to mine as it drives relentlessly forward.
Rose has often flown in the face of tradition, walking away from Uhuru at the peak of their popularity, incorporating sounds and styles lesser artists might eschew and following his own instinct where others might seek safe haven. As a result he has retained a top spot in a field that has seen many come and go. On this release Michael works with some of Reggae's greatest musical talents recording in Jamaica, England and the Netherlands.
