“The Brotherhood” brings together Naya Rockers, Fishbone frontman Angelo Moore, and Jamaican vocal trio The Tamlins in a collaboration that speaks directly to unity and resilience.
Naya Rockers, anchored by US-based drummer Nathan Sabanayagam, have spent two decades backing artists across reggae’s foundation and younger generations alike. Their résumé includes work with Stephen Marley, Barrington Levy, Addis Pablo, Clinton Fearon, and Ken Boothe. Functioning both as a live band and as producers through their independent label Naya Records, they continue to act as a bridge between generations of reggae musicians.
On “The Brotherhood”, Angelo Moore’s distinctive voice cuts against the seasoned harmonies of The Tamlins, whose history stretches back to the 1970s alongside Peter Tosh. The track is rooted in a roots reggae, its rhythm section steady and spacious, leaving room for vocal interplay. Lyrically it warns against pride, doubt, and misinterpretation as forces that erode community, while turning towards education, awareness, and collective responsibility as answers. The song takes shape as both commentary and call to action, pitched as an anthem for rebuilding trust.
Proceeds from the single, supported by Floki Studios, will go to the Alpha School of Music in Kingston, Jamaica, an institution that has trained generations of reggae and ska musicians. “The Brotherhood” also forms part of Higher Education, an 11-track benefit album featuring contributions from Clinton Fearon, Sister Nancy, Stephen Marley, Queen Omega, Micah Shemaiah, and Mad Professor, all recorded with Naya Rockers to sustain reggae’s future in Jamaica.
