Releases on vinyl record March 6th 2020 : http://fruitsrecords.com/gallery/

Kumar, ex-Raging Fyah lead singer, met Fruits Records crew back in 2016, when he invited them to play with I Kong at his Wickie Wackie festival in Bull Bay, Jamaica. From then, the musical friendship never stopped, doing different types of collaboration over the years. His unique voice tone, breathe-taking vocal abilities and songwriting skills make Kumar one of the greatest singers of his generation, as his nomination at the Grammy awards 2016 with Raging Fyah can testify. "Message In Your Radio” brings a different taste to Fruits Record's catalog, noticeably more modern than the previous releases. Kumar's melancholic melodies enhance this powerful riddim played by The 18th Parallel with conscious lyrics: Message in the music is a must, today more than ever. Anthem for radio stations!

Kumar - Message In Your Radio

Fruits Records is a roots reggae label based in Switzerland.

Creating the future of reggae music dread and alive since 2023!
Singer and songwriter for sweet reggae music rootswise inna 3rd millennium style.
Kolabs very welcome!

Rooted deep in the sound and vibes of the 70ies, that´ s where my inspiration comes from: conscious lyrics paired with the dance sound of the ghetto: the drums and the bass. 
My vision is to prolong the tradition of Jamaican music with the sound and vibes of the golden age, pushed into the new millennium with the tools of our era. 
From The Gong to Major Lazer, a beautiful bastard will arise under a new sun.
