The Beatnuts – Live Concert at Central Park Summer Stage, Manhattan

1993年にメジャー・デビューし、ニューヨークのヒップホップ・シーンで活躍したビートナッツですが、クウォリティの高い作品を発表してきたにもかかわらず、なぜか知名度はいまひとつ。「人生、楽しけりゃオッケー。酒におぼれてクサ吸って女の子たちに囲まれてハッピー!」といったおとぼけラップの歌詞のせいで正当に評価されていないのかもしれません。

7月9日、ニューヨーク恒例「夏のフリー・コンサート」の一環としてセントラル・パークで開催されたラテン・オルタナティブ・ミュージック・コンファレンスにビートナッツが出演、久々にジュジュとサイコレスの二人が揃ってライヴを行いました。

READ IN JAPANESE 日本語

Priest’s musical career began with him singing on the South London reggae soundsystem Saxon Studio International. He released his first major album ‘Maxi Priest’ in 1988. “Close To You” became American Billboard number one in 1990 making him one of only two British reggae acts (along with UB40) to achieve that status. He has worked with Shaggy, Beres Hammond, Shabba Ranks and many other big artists.

Maxi Priest Album Release Party was hosted by Pat McKay famous for her Caribbean program on SiriusXM called “The Joint” and sponsored by reggae music powerhouse VP Records and the Jamaica Tourist Board.

2 hours after scheduled time Maxi Priest finally made his appearance. “I want to give thanks to God and all the West Indians out there,” Priest greeted. “Tonight is a musical experience. We own this culture and we have to bring it together and keep it together,” he said and gave a preview of his latest album, “Easy To Love.” He revealed the new album features music legends Sly and Robbie and a duet with Beres Hammond.
