Mikey General Releases "Confidence In Self"
It's almost ironic that the first track on Mikey General's new album is "Jah Time". As the song tells you, "nothing ever happens before Jah time." Now is Mikey General's time. Time to break through, and a time to shine.
One of Reggae's most exciting talents in conscious vocals is that of Mikey General. His high tenor voice, like a warm breeze over the ocean, carries a message of faith and optimism. He is now ready to break through the barriers of the reggae industry with his new release "Confidence in Self".
This new release shows his aim and his standard. The 16 track CD release, on the Qabalah Music First Label, shows the artiste expanding his repertoire with 'Confidence'. The Album boasts tracks such as "Looking A Way Out", a testament of today's economic times, and the popular "Heart Broken" with Contractor. This Qabalah Music release is expected to separate the singers from the chanters – if you will.
After many years and numerous tours of Europe, Africa and North America, Mikey General is truly a world citizen of music. For more information visit www.myspace.com/mikeygeneral.
Brother Mikey General eloquently conveys the words of Marcus Garvey in this masterpiece, "Confidence In Self."
"If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated. But if you got confidence in self you're never ill-treated.
If you don't learn to love yourself, you'll be deleted. But when you learn to love yourself success is repeated. Marcus Garvey told us to assert our positions as Kings and Queens of the earth. He told us to be careful in the way that we choose, remember that righteousness is a road you never lose......."
The title of this album is very fitting. The brother is confident yet he is one of the most humble with whom you can ever interact. Brother Mikey General's latest release, "Confidence In Self" displays his faith while taking you to a higher spiritual level.
The entire album has a real message in every song. Track #3 Crush Dem-beautifully arranged and delivered. #5 Nothing Too Hard-Motivates, uplifts and inspires. #6 Looking A Way Out is empowering. It makes I feel like I can achieve anything. Brother Mikey General sings: "Dem block the road we clear it, Dem build a wall we go round it, Dem build a fence and we tear it down......."
This is an album that may be enjoyed with your children. This album edutains and lifts the spirit. You can feel the "realness" of this Brother in every song. Listen carefully to #13 Enemy Within......
"Confidence In Self" is designed to take you on a spiritual journey. A journey of looking within oneself. A journey to uplift the entire nation! "Nothing ever happen before Jah time!" Give thanks to the Most High God. Blessed.
