In a previous interview the Grammy-nominated reggae singer said one of her most riveting stage performances took place in Nairobi, Kenya, in front of an estimated 7,000 fans.
Pamoja is a bold project hoping to marry the sounds of Jamaica with those from across Africa. The album boasts features from Stonebwoy, who appears on the album’s first single “Proppa,” Wezi, Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley, Kartel, and more and it’s set to drop later this year.
