It’s been two years since the release of his last studio album and Reggae singer Lutan Fyah is back with his 18th album, entitled “Longest Livah.” Produced by Locke City Music, it is a project that has been three years in the making.
“The title signifies the struggles that we face daily, in all sectors of society,” explained Locke City Music producer, Adrian Locke, “After a lengthy discussion between myself and the artiste, we arrived at this song to be the title track of the album based on his life experiences.”
The official release date is Friday September 13, 2019 and the album will be distributed by Zojak Worldwide. Expect 13 powerful tracks from this release, with titles such as “All For You”, “Meant To Be” and “Never Say Never” featuring fellow Jamaican artiste, Beenie Man.
The lead track, which is simultaneously the title track “Longest Livah”, promises to thrill. Elaborating on the meaning of the song, the artiste explained, “It’s a song we created through natural vibes and to reflect on my own experience. As you know, I’ve been here for a while, making music consistently and throughout the years, I’ve accumulated a lot of fans and followers across the world through the music I sing. I will never slow down or stop no matter what.”
Following the positive feedback from those who have heard the unreleased project, such as local radio DJs, the producer is confident in the potential that will be garnered by this release. “The greatest expectations for this album are for it to be a hit and top the Reggae Billboard charts; even a Grammy nomination. We really want to help influence and challenge change in Jamaican and World Reggae music,” Lutan Expressed.
While this is not the first time the two are working together, having worked together on the 2013 album “Life Of A King”, this is their first full length collaboration. “The best way to describe our working relationship is natural. When it came to writing and producing, every track on this project was free-flowing and authentic,” Locke added.
Lutan Fyah will be on the road to promote the album soon, with upcoming shows scheduled in Ethiopia and Reunion Island.
