De Apostle - one of St. Croix's veteran artists and self-proclaimed "King of the V.I." - teams up with Sizzla & Red Lion Sounds to release this mixtape "for the streets". Although the majority of this disc appeals those inclined to gangsta dancehall and hip hop, there are a
couple of conscious gems on here, including the massive Morgan
Heritage & De Apostle combination song "Elijah" and the classic roots track from Apostle - "My Vision". Elsewhere, Sizzla & De Apostle trade off on depictions of street hustle, struggle & violence in the vein of Sizzla's mixtapes with Project Groundation. WARNING: this disc
contains explicit lyrics.

Born in St. Croix U.S. Virgin Islands, audiences across the region have been mesmerized by the dynamic sound and style of one of the hottest rising stars in the Reggae world. A philosopher and a poet that has no limits and boundaries has took it upon himself to follow the dream that was inspired to him by some of music’s greatest legends like Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and 2Pac Shakur.

This fiery musician has had a love for music from the time he was little boy when he started performing at the age of six in school talent shows. Since then, he has taken his music even more seriously and started an independent record label, in which he has released numerous successful albums, such as Genesis, Book of Fire and Renegade Music CD and DVD. One with a “no holds bar” attitude, this conscious dance hall artist has formulated a style of his own giving the people something fresh and new with broad horizons.

There is no stopping this youth! His unique voice adds reality to songs that are about life and the prophecies of the world as well as about the violence and turf wars that exist in his community. His Music is about life and its ups and downs, deep reality and truth. The Apostle is not one to bite his tongue, so ready or not here he comes.
