RAS KRONIK RELEASES HIS LATEST SINGLE “SPIRITUAL WARFARE!”

Never one to limit his message, singer Ras Kronik addresses environmental issues on Spiritual Warfare, his latest song. A devout Rastafarian, he is concerned that not enough is being done to protect the elements.

“The message is just the plain and simple facts that our water is polluted, our food has been poisoned and down to the air we breathe is infected. So, a song of this nature is timely,” he said.

Spiritual Warfare is co-produced by Ras Kronik and Robert “Ricky Dread” Stephens of the Bonafide Band. Both are based in Las Vegas which has a small, close-knit reggae community.

After experimenting with house and pop sounds in 2018, Ras Kronik returns to traditional reggae on Spiritual Warfare “to address crime against humanity and to let our people, especially the ones that are not fully inclined or aware, of what’s happening around them.”

The single is a departure from the techno-driven Get High and Rise my Emotion, which were released last year. Get High was produced by Steve “Mr. Mig” Migliore, an American whose credits include songs by Beyonce and Taylor Swift.

Ras Kronik, says he has been environmentally-aware for some time, and also keeps in touch with current affairs. Given reggae’s history as a social force, he believes it is critical artists educate music lovers and power players.

“Very much important. Artists should really and truly implement more social commentary and current affairs in their songs,” he said.

Born Everton Edwards, Ras Kronik is from Clarendon, a rural parish in central Jamaica. He has been a mainstay of the Las Vegas reggae circuit for over 10 years, releasing a number of singles and two albums.

His previous album, Wild N Free, was released in 2016.
