Jah Cure releases new single featuring Damian Marley
In addition to the song’s release, the Marijuana video will premiere on Complex April 19th.
“To add to the celebration, Jah Cure and Damian 'Junior Gong' Marley will be supporting 4/20 parties around the U.S., providing patrons with limited edition marijuana rolling papers, posters, and more,” said VP Records in a statement posted online.
Produced and written by Jah Cure, Damian 'Junior Gong' Marley, Frederick Seymour and Anwar McDonald for Iyah Cure Music Ltd., Marijuana praises the wonderful euphoria of cannabis in a smooth and rhythmic serenade.
With the growing acceptance and supporting research of cannabis, recreational consumption, medical benefits, economic profit and other benefits, the song embraces the conscious use of the medicinal herb.
In the song, both Jah Cure and Junior Gong deliver educational lyrics, “CBD is my medicine… Legal drugs, they killing us” and “the seeds can replace your petroleum” which speak about not only the holistic practice of marijuana but the “Green Energy” movement as well.
Jah Cure, given name at birth Siccature Alcock, received his Grammy nomination for The Cure for Best Reggae Album in 2015. The Cure held the #1 spot for three consecutive weeks after its debut and steadily remained on the Top 10 U.S. Music Charts.
Jah Cure’s next album is anticipated for release this Summer and along with Marijuana, will feature previously released singles Risk it All featuring Phyllisia Ross, Life is Real featuring Popcaan and the recently released Pretty Face.
“Jah Cure consistently puts out good music and we are very proud of this song," said Neil ‘Diamond’ Edwards, senior director of A&R at VP Records. "Jah Cure's vocals combined with the great lyrics by Damian 'Junior Gong' Marley makes this song rich with potential to become an anthem for 4/20 and beyond. It is also a nice sample of what's to come with the upcoming album by Jah Cure.”
