Omar Perry - Life LP
SKU: OMALP001
Description:
Perry, a name that sounds like a legend, a name of a wizard who
shook up reggae by giving birth to Dub. Yes, we are talking about
Lee Scratch Perry! But this genius and producer also gave birth to
something unique, or rather someone, a son and no less talented
singer: Omar Perry.
From his family legacy, Omar Perry got his fathers extravagant
hats, but not only! He spent his childhood in the mythical Black
Ark Studio, where he attended his fathers recording sessions with
Bob Marley and the Wailers, Junior Murvin and Max Romeo. Enough to
be inspired by the greatest! Omar Perry seduces the public over his
different projects and tours. This craze is due to his singular
vocal power, subtly combined with reggae and dancehall sounds.
For Omar Perry, like this new generation of Jamaican artists, an
opening up to more recent musical genres and more modern aesthetics
give reggae a new area. And it is during a world curfew, in the
spring of 2021, that he is contacted by Benwah, producer, composer
and musician who had already worked on his very first album Man
Free. He sent him his last two or three reggae productions. But
Benwah, inspired by the brothers Damian and Stephen Marley among
others, wanted to take the project into an urban dimension. The
tracks are reworked with a more hip-hop aesthetic. The gamble is
successful, Omar Perry was seduced. What was originally intended to
be a collaboration on a simple single quickly turned into an album
project, so natural, instinctive and spontaneous was the connection
between the two artists. At the crossroads of hiphop and reggae,
this new album places Omar Perry in a new musical dimension that
suits him perfectly!
