Jamaican-born artist brings reggae gold to the world with

Rasta Blacspade drops I Love You EP, blending reggae with powerful messages of love, unity, and social change.
Yonkers, NY - February 13, 2025 - Rasta Blacspade, the Jamaican-born, U.S.-based reggae sensation and finalist in the prestigious International Reggae and Music Awards (I.R.A.M.A.) 2023, has struck musical gold with his latest project-his highly anticipated 6-track EP, I Love You. Produced by veteran Jamaican producer Dub Chemist, this EP is a powerful collection of songs that speak to the universal need for love, unity, and social change.

Described as "an EP for everyone," I Love You addresses critical global issues affecting families and communities. Dub Chemist, known for his ability to blend music with meaningful storytelling, emphasizes the EP's impact:

"If each of us would say 'I love you'-to the Creator and to one another-there would be more peace and fewer broken pieces in our lives."

The standout track, "Love Over All Things," has already gained international attention for its powerful message about choosing humanity over materialism. According to Rasta Blacspade, the song serves as a reminder that society's obsession with wealth often overshadows the pillars of survival-love, unity, and peace.

"Instead of more weapons, we need more hospitals, schools, and jobs to fight poverty," says Rasta Blacspade.

Other notable tracks include "Hail Jah," "High Herb", "Rasta Live," "Be Like the Sea," "Africa Love," and the title track "I Love You." These songs have resonated deeply with fans, achieving chart success in Europe and the Caribbean. "Rasta Live," for example, has amassed over 200,000 views and continues to gain traction globally. Meanwhile, "Africa Love" is on its way to becoming an anthem across the African continent.

Beyond his music, Rasta Blacspade is deeply committed to social causes. He has actively supported fatherless children in Jamaica by contributing to back-to-school expenses and has pledged to increase his sponsorship efforts by 100% in 2025.

He is also one of the most outspoken reggae artists on social and political issues, advocating for:

* Lower customs duties in the aftermath of Hurricane Beryl
* More community-driven projects for Labor Day
* Increased focus on education and the inclusion of Marcus Garvey's teachings in schools

"With the release of I Love You, all eyes are on Rasta Blacspade-an artist destined for greatness," says Dub Chemist.

Born Wade Douglas in Brown's Hall, St. Catherine, Jamaica, Rasta Blacspade discovered his love for reggae at the young age of six. He balanced music with his education, attending Brown's Hall Primary School before moving on to Tacius Golding High School, where he earned a Business Diploma while simultaneously refining his musical skills.

Although he initially struggled to gain traction in Jamaica's competitive reggae scene, his break came when he moved to Kingston and was invited into the studios of reggae legends Luciano, Al Campbell, Steele, and Cleavee. Recognized for his versatility and unique sound, he quickly gained respect within the industry.

By 2012, Rasta Blacspade achieved international success with his hit single "Heart Nuh Leap," released on the Traveling Man Riddim. His momentum continued in 2023 when he released "Rasta Live", produced by Dub Chemist Muzik, which became a major hit in the Caribbean and on global reggae charts.

His song "Irawma" was specially released for the International Reggae and World Music Awards (IRAWMA) 40th Anniversary Show in Jamaica and earned him a top-three finalist position out of 1,000 participants-a remarkable achievement in the reggae industry.

Rasta Blacspade is now gearing up for international tours and is eager to bring his message of love and unity to audiences worldwide.

"Music is my passion, my purpose, and my way of connecting with people. I look forward to sharing my journey with fans everywhere," he says.
