Here I am by Lukie D
You feel alone, silence is heavy. Even regulated by the best sounds from Jamaica, daily life is hard. If you know what I’m talking about, the new album from Lukie D is for you. A true ray of sunshine.
A spark seldom shoots out of the dark, but sometimes, you just have to listen to a good disc as Here I Am to know how to talk about love. With poetry, the Jamaican sings with conviction, lyrics full of love and respect. We’re charmed.
