Malijah's latest single, called "No Combo" (Breakfast in Bed) is getting
heavy radio rotation in Jamaica and Europe.
A brilliant video for the song can be seen on Jamaica TV stations: Juice, Hype and RETV. If you don't get any of these stations, you can also watch on Malijah's myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/malijahsingsong
This week the song was voted #2 on RETV Top 10 video countdown show- based on viewers' votes. Malijah is happy that the fans are responding so well to his meaningful, yet playful song.
"The song is more than just a single that promotes healthy eating, it is funny but serious and urges you to take a look at your lifestyle, and make the necessary changes so you can have a healthier, more upful life, there is a message beneath it all, you have to set your thing right, no one else can do it for you," Malijah explained.
The song features veteran musicians including: Sly Dunbar (drums), Mikey Chung (bass), and Dean Fraser (horns). Singer Zenesha 'Zenny' Riley's sexy vocals are a nice compliment to the package. Zenny is a newcomer to the music business but she has previously made a name for herself as a runway model in Spain, Germany and France.
The video was produced by Nando Garcia who is originally from Spain, but now resides in Portland Jamaica. Mr. Garcia is focusing all of his energies on Malijah these days, as he is also the executive producer of the full length album "Freedom Streets" which will be released later this year.
"Malijah is a true gideon soldier, winning the battle as he fights forwhat's right. I have full confidence in his abilities as a singer, songwriter, musician and entertainer", Nando also explained that he'd be
taking Malijah to Spain next week to do some promotion of the video there.
