Reggae singer Nature is one of the hottest talents in Jamaica right now, having built up a big reputation with tracks like 'Wasting Time', 'Revolution', and stunning live performances at Sting, GT Extravaganza, Reggae Sumfest, Champions In Action, and Island Explosion.
He’s no overnight sensation though, having worked tirelessly for a number of years until signing to Down Sound Records in Jamaica. This was the final missing piece and now Nature is on the verge of a worldwide breakthrough.
He has just finished his album Life’s Journey and according to producer Cordell ‘Skatta’ Burrell, the singer recorded over 20 tracks. Skatta said “We’ve now chosen the best 15 for the album and we believe it has the chance to set the music world on fire. Nature is a fierce young voice moving on to bigger things in his future he’s is a very talented artist whose time has come now."
Having recently supported UB40's Ali Campbell at Kew The Music Festival, he's also unveiled his new single 'Love You', taken from his forthcoming album. The single has been getting support from BBC 1 Xtra's David Rodigan, Seani B and Mistajam, as well as Ras Kwame on Capital Xtra and Robert Elms on BBC London Live.
The artist, whose real name is Andre Ellis, has been touring extensively in Europe. Nature also got rave reviews from reggae aficionados after a series of explosive performances in Australia. “I feel good to be out in the world because as a young artist, you have to plant the seeds to build a fan base. Music is a growing process, it is really a career, that is why I am taking timeout to do conscious, positive music that can last a lifetime,” the St. James native said.
With a name that signifies his love for the environment, Nature started getting serious about his career in 2002. Since then, he has recorded with Big Ship, King Jammy’s, Truck back Records and Ricardo Gardener’s Heart of Love Music label, and is only going to go on to bigger and better things.
