There\u2019s been so much division, socially, politically, even within communities, and I felt a strong need to create something that encourages unity and empathy,\u201d said Jahbradez. \u201cIt\u2019s really a reflection of my belief that we\u2019re stronger when we support each other.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>From the market town of Falmouth in Trelawny parish, western Jamaica, Jahbradez is a graduate of the Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts in Kingston. It was there that he met colleagues who would form the band Pentateuch, for which he was drummer and vocalist.<\/p>\n<p>For the past seven years, Jahbradez has focused on his career as a singer. <strong><em>\u2018We Are Black\u2019<\/em><\/strong> and <strong><em>\u2018Like We nuh Seet\u2019<\/em><\/strong> are two of his previous songs.<\/p>\n<p>On <strong><em>\u2018Together<\/em>\u2019<\/strong>, he salutes the work of his musical heroes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy biggest influences come from roots-reggae and conscious music. Artists like\u00a0Burning Spear,\u00a0Black Uhuru,\u00a0Peter Tosh, and\u00a0Bob Marley and The Wailers\u00a0have had a major impact on me,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m inspired by their message, their authenticity, and how they use music to speak truth and uplift people. I also draw from blues and pop influences to shape my own unique sound.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2018Together\u2019 is the new song from singer Jahbradez.
