Ras Xtr3me releases Shaat Locks

Ras Xtr3me is celebrating his belief in the Rastafarian culture with his new single, 'Shaat Locks', produced by Audiotraxx Productions on the Shaat Lox rhythm.

The single speaks about the autehticity of Rastafari and speaks to youth who have an interest in the movement. Ras Xtr3me sings, "Shaat Locks no tats no glass chain no gold watch, Xtr3me roll the Rasta way, Natural beed head wrap", which is a clear indication that Ras Xtr3me is not here for the 'fake rastas'.

Ras Xtr3me said: "I am a cultural reggae artiste who believes all musicians should travel on a path of truth and righteousness. Our music should be a reflection of positivity and strength".

Hailing from Old Harbour, St Catherine, Ras Xtr3me grew up with the influence of music from veterans such as Flick Wilson, Peter Tosh, Bob Marley, Third World, Nina Simone, Dennis Brown, Gregory Isaacs, Garnett Silk, and Buju Banton.

proudest moment

When asked about his proudest moment, he shared: "Mutabaruka is one of the radio personalities I admire, and to hear him play my single, it was truly appreciated. I hope to influence a positive change through embracing roots and culture among our youth, and he basically created the medium for me to do so."

Ras Xtr3me is eager to start his promotional trail for the new single, which can be found on www.soundcloud.com/ras-xtr3me.
