Raz Bin Sam - Own This Life
Originating from Israel and now living in Australia (Byron Bay) Raz Bin Sam has been working on “Own This Life” for two years now. The song used for the title calls for people to stay positive and keep themselves together, saying life is a miracle and a blessing so one has to appreciate and enjoy it. “Morning prayer makes me feel the best’ referring to Jewish rituals that he practices and are his tools to stay positive. With a groovy riddim and these lyrics combined, a positive piece was created. And for this reason the album found its title ‘Own This Life’.
The 14 track album features Middle Eastern vibes mixed with Reggae on
groovy one drop riddims recorded by Mista Savona, Bongo Herman, Jah Warriors and Sabbo & Kuti. Modern Roots with songs like 'No Pagan' as well as Dancehall beats ' Livin Like That ' and 'Sweet N Vicious'. Raz Bin Sam made his first international mark when his first single “Something to Remember” hit the US Independent Reggae charts in July 07, and remained at number 1 for 4 weeks!!! Also included are two combinations with Ray Darwin & Jah Mason on the album. |
