As a collective inspiration, reggae continues to reveal its timeless connections. ❤️💛💚
20 years ago, Groundation incorporated a memorable quote from the classic Jamaican film Countryman into the song “Elements” from the album Dub Wars.
Today, that same inspiration lives on as Protoje honors the film in “Sword and Shield” off his brand new album Art of Acceptance. @protoje
Respect to Countryman and to the enduring spirit of Jamaican culture.

May 11 marks the day in 1981 when Bob Marley left the physical world.
He was more than a songwriter. He was a storyteller, a healer, and for many, a prophet.
At just 36 years old, knowing his time was near, Bob hoped to take his final breath in Jamaica, but his journey ended in Miami after returning from treatment in Germany.
Why such a powerful soul was called so early is a question many have asked of Jah. Perhaps his earthly mission was complete. Perhaps there was nothing more he needed to give, and nothing more we could offer in return.
His body departed, but his spirit remains—guiding, teaching, and reminding us to seek truth, justice, and unity.
Today we give thanks for the light he left behind, a light that continues to carry us through the darkness.
One Love. Give thanks. 🙏🏽🕊️
A behind-the-scenes look at the making of “The Youth” from the album Candle Burning.
At ICP Recording Studios, Eduardo Gross lays down the guitar tracks while legendary engineer Jim Fox monitors every level to tape, capturing the full warmth, depth, and detail of the performance.
This is the moment where inspiration becomes music.

Through your love, sacrifice, and endless giving, all life begins... Today and always, we are eternally grateful for the Mother of Life. Happy Mother’s Day. ❤️🙌
Every person comes from somewhere.
Some are born into peace.
Some into survival.
Some into opportunity.
Some into war.
“New Life” was written for those still searching for hope in a world that too often looks away.
This song is about compassion.
About remembering the humanity in each other.
Because no matter where we begin, we all want dignity, safety, love, and a chance at life.
As this vinyl spins, think about the people still searching for their own “New Life.”
