Mikey General stays true to Rastafari on his 12th studio album


Mikey General’s 12th studio work “Hailelujah Song” was released at the end of 2013 on the Barcelona based Reggaeland record label. The 15 track set contains two already acclaimed singles "Jah Will Be There" and “King Selassie I Alone”. The album which was recorded partly in the prestigious Tuff Gong studios in Kingston and partly in Reggaeland’s own Barcelona studio, is the result of a two year long profound musical research effort with the aim to cater to a broader audience with the simple and universal messages of Rastafari.

The title sums up the whole story behind this well rounded work very clearly. In the words of Mikey General “Hailelujah Song comes from Haile which means power and Lujah which means of Jah, so Hailelujah Song is the Power of Jah Song”. “When Mikey records in Tuff Gong it is always quite an event. People pack the studio to see this mystical and musical experience. But I believe that it is in the recording sessions in Barcelona that the special alchemy between artist and producer reached its climax”, says Marcus of Reggaeland.
