|  Ikahba (Ariel Peterson) is the latest roots talent to emerge from the Afrikan Roots Lab stable. He has some really soothing vocals (that sound similar to Tenor Saw) which balance out nicely with his tough chants.The music of Ikahba first surfaced in 2000 with the Glamorous Records compilation, on which he sings four selections (using the name Ika Melody) including a combination with Army. 2004 saw the release of Troddin To Zion, the debut album of Ikahba by Afrikan Roots Lab records, in which Midnite and Ron Benjamin bring out the best of Ikahba. Ikahba toured California for the first time in the summer of 2004, along with roots empress Dezarie. He is currently working on his next album, which will be released in 2005.
