Deeply mystical, Jah9 has emerged from a chrysalis of
poetry, dub and spirit to become a powerful feminine energy within a universal
grassroots movement of consciousness.
Inspired by the open spaces in the instrumental dub 1970’s
Jamaican roots music, Jah9 sings with a voice that belies the dimensions of her
physical body, from a soul much older than its current vessel; “reminiscent of
that darly operatic wailer for truth and justice, Nina Simone.” Her philosophy – profoundly spiritual, and her style – Jazz on
Dub.
Watch her brand new single “Heaven” right here.

Movies almost always have a common theme.The subject (main character) comes from a
particular background, has to overcome obstacle(s) to achieve a certain goal;
just when they think all obstacles are removed, one more item pops up which is
the biggest one, they overcome, and claim victory.In between all of that, we also might have a
love story.
Rickey Teetz
walks us on that journey, but instead of telling the story in 2 hours, he tells
it in 3 minutes via his HOTTT new music video, “Poverty Life / Working” which has just been released.
Shot live on location in Jamaica, Rickey walks us through the
life of a youth / family who are having a hard time making ends meet.One of the iconic shots in the video is the
close up of one slice of bread which is intended to be dinner.To showcase how close the story line is to
Rickey, he is featured in the video, not as a character, but as the narrator
who is telling the story, and watching the story unfold at the same time.We LOVE this!
So how does this story end?!Well I can’t say there’s an end because Rickey is with us (whom the
video is based on) and will be with us for another hundred years, but, the
video goes on to tell us what happens after a few years of hard work.It’s not a Hollywood ending but it is a
Jamaica ending!
