What is Jahmin? I celebrated my 40th Bday on Friday and I am truly grateful to live to see the big 4 - 0. It was a weekend well spent with the fam and friends. One thing is for sure though, when you have kids, it is their Birthday as well as yours, as many activities have to be planned around them. But hey, such is the parent life, I'd have it no other way.

On a different note, I got a message in the Reggaejham gmail, someone found the site through searching as was asking what is Reggaejahm. They also said they liked the simplicity of the site and the fact that we are having fun with Reggae and the culture.

A Jahmin Link up!

Here is a pic from an online link up some of us had over the holidays. It can be difficult to plan these things in the season ( or even out of it) but we got it in at the final leg.Read more about it in @bearmol's post here. Next link up we would like to invite you, yes you! If everyone used discord it would be much easier to accomplish that. Here is the Reggaejahm discord link. Though I am not a fan of discord, myself, it is the place most people on HIVE are on that has all the tools for a link up.

WHAT'S JAHMIN' THIS WEEK?

This week in the JAHMIN Session, a Dancehall/trap riddim called Dilemma that has all the right elements to vibe to. Next, a riddim selection called "Rebellion" in Nyabinghi style summoning the ancestors to help bun down babylon. Reggae roots in Spanish from Venezuela with the same consistent message of righteousness. A spontaneous trip to visit ancestral roots and going home with some "roots" as well. A message of life and living with the the perfect tune to make the message stick. Next we have a demo track recorded by yours truly, I hope you gave it a listen and last but not least, a recipe to make the perfect sorrel drink. Enjoy!.
