Dread, Arguments, JA, Roll... So many singles that have established Protoje among the new Jamaican generation. The young protégé of Donovan Bennett is about to release his first album, naturally produced at Don Corleon's.
Entitled "The Seven Years Itch" (because the concept and some of the songs have been developing for seven years), it is available from today.
You can get an idea of Protoje's songwriting talent by downloading a free sampler from his official site www.protoje.com.
It features five singles from this forthcoming first album (Dread, Arguments, JA, Roll, Rasta Love with Ky-mani Marley) but also a live version of Dread and a handful of older tracks. These are versions specially recorded for the occasion in which Protoje can be heard commenting on each of the tracks.
Plus five superb cover arts illustrating each of the five tracks from the album.
The young singer also shot a video trailer, which sees him handing out his vinyl at dawn in Kingston.
Protoje will soon be in France for Soul Vybz Party 5 on 2 February at the Cabaret Sauvage in Paris.
