Dele Mandeyah releases new album

Veteran reggae artiste Dele Mandeyah has released his latest album 'My Time Volume Two' and is already looking forward to chart in Europe and Africa, where he believes he has a strong following.

The veteran also looks to create an impact locally.

This is his second album in over a decade and he believes the project will add value to the contemporary reggae industry.

The album reflects a continuation of his work in roots reggae on his course to spreading the message of Jah, love, and respect globally to listeners. It is also dedicated to the Rastafarian movement.

My Time consists of six tracks and tackles social commentary, equal rights, and human social transition from daily struggles.

There are no collaborations but there are contributions, from musicians, including Charles 'Bulgie' Farquhason, Code Red Band, Mahalia Martin, and Denzil Gayle, among others.

The album, executively produced by Mandeya and Fireball Records, is distributed independently.

"I have not even gone full scale as yet. I don't want it to blow up yet before I send it to Jamaica. So that is why I delayed overseas promotion," he said.

The album is a teaser to My Time Part One, which will be released in December 2018.

Dele Mandeyah last released a live album called Rebel Salute Live, which featured his live performance at Rebel Salute 1997. Ironically, that project took him on tour for over eight years.

Current singles from the album which are already raising eyebrows include Cool Out and Haile.
