EVENT PREVIEW : REGGAE SUMFEST ARTIST OF THE MONTH: CHRONIXX Chronnix, the son of reggae veteran Jamar Rolando McNaughton aka Chronicle, is killing it "Chronixx is one of the most exciting up-and-coming reggae artists around today. Born in Jamaica in 1992, Chronixx started writing music and recording songs during his childhood before going on to produce for famed artists including Konshens and Munga Honourable. Having released his debut EP [Hooked on Chronixx] back in 2010, toured Europe in 2013 and seen his 2014 album [The Dread & Terrible Project] top the iTunes Reggae Chart, Chronixx has since been working on projects with other legends across the reggae, jazz and hip-hop genres, like Ernest Ranglin and Joey Bada$$, securing his place in the scene. In a recent interview, Chronixx opened up about the meaning of reggae, saying that "reggae is a really hard thing to find a definition for...our music was created out of spirituality and struggles and happiness and our experiences as a people, and that is a very in-depth story by itself. Reggae was created out of a unique situation by unique people and it's a very wide thing."" 54 ISSUE 86 / 2016 REGGAE PLAYLIST Cah Get Me Down Teflon Good Vibes Josh Heinrichs Youths Fi Rich Natel Nice Up Yourself Collie Buddz Here's the reggae on our playlist this month:
