Album of the month: Luciano - "Jah is my Navigator"

Jah is may Navigator, here’s a reminiscent title album which explains quite well Luciano’s philosophy. Luciano used to spread only good vibes and had always stayed true to his own singing style and to his convictions. After the great 2006 Child of the King, the Jamaican returns with a fresh new set once again produced by his musical director Dean Fraser due out on February on VP Records.
Jah is may Navigatoreatures 15 new healing spirits songs, led by Jah's love. An album full of hope, where he is defending human rights and promotes humanist values. From the powerful title track ‘Jah Is My Navigator’ written by Tarrus Riley to ‘I'm The Tuffest’ featuring Andrew Tosh, Peter's son, The Messenger who is surrounded by the new singers generation, sings true roots reggae music. With ‘Sweet Jamaica’ - not to confuse with 2006 ‘Sweet Jamaica’ on Hold Tight riddim - on Pass The Kutchie riddim recut, he signs a true anthem for Jamaica.
