Shasha Marley To Launch New Album

Dance Hall music in Ghana cannot be fully described without one of Ghana?s proud reggae stars, Shasha Marley, especially for his unique voice and appearance on stage.

With a compelling desire to break into the very top of the Ghanaian music industry, Shasha Marley told GO from Washington DC that ?I just finished working on my new CD here in the United State of America.?

The passionate reggae star, who was in Jamaica earlier on to negotiate with The Wailers to perform on his latest recording in the United States, says he is looking forward to be back home by April this year.

The producer for the whole project is called George Kouakou, who was once the producer for Alpha Blondy, but now the keyboards man for The Wailers.

The new album, according Shasha Marley, consists of 13 tracks which would all keep music lovers up on their dancing feet.

As to why he had waited for such long time before releasing another album, Marley responded that he has not been out for quite a very long time because he was waiting for the right time to get global and ?I believe the time is now.?

?Ghana should expect the best sensational reggae album from Shasha Marley. Great sound quality, great vocal power, as Ghanaians know already about me with the best female backing vocals by an American Gospel trio called Sought Out,? he assures his fans.

The reggae icon says he has a great musical product which is set to take over the world of reggae music across the country and internationally.

Shasha Marley discloses that there is also a song (title withheld), which is included to decrease the hues and cries caused by politicians in Ghana. ?I believe that?s going to be one of the early hits in Ghana as soon as it is aired on radio even before the CDs are released.?
