JAMBALASEE RULE RIDDIM 2019

The Grenadian band M. O. S. S International is highlighted as the vehicle that advanced an indigenous part of Grenada’s culture. They essentially created a musical subgenre that has had a major impact on the Caribbean’s musical landscape and on our cultural history. M.O.S.S’ 1991 smash hit JAMBALASEE RULE marked the first time in Grenada’s history that the indigenous goat-skin drums, conch shells and jab-chants of j’ouvert morning had made their way into a recording studio and onto a record. Thus marking the official birth of JAB MUSIC. We commemorate this classic with the release of the JAMBALASEE RULE RIDDIM 2019. Featuring a new generation of musical artists as well as a veteran of the

industry. Inspector, Tallpree, Lavaman, Skinny Banton, Jab King, Valene Nedd, Randy Isaac and Terra D Governor. Our hope is that this music, in the hands of these talented performers, will be carried forward. Not only to evolve our musical culture but also to keep important traditions alive. The cover art for this new riddim is intended to pay homage to the heart and soul of M.O.S.S. International, Mr. Don Charles. Don was the band’s leader, co-founder and sound engineer. He is credited by all of the band’s members as being the glue that kept their endeavors together. Though he is no longer with us. We at @jambalaseegrenada dedicate this release to him, in the hopes that his work, his music and his memory will live on forever.
