MIDNITE LIVE - Love JAH  @Washington D.C. @Howard Theatre

Infinite Quality –Midnite
       
Hailing from the Island of St Croix, Midnite is one of the most promising roots reggae bands of the millennium. Many answers to world troubles are cryptically placed in Midnite’s steadfast, strong lyrical content deleiverd by smooth and simple melodies. Lead singer Vaughn Benjamin’s angelic voice is an amalgamation of expressions in music. His soulful chanting and raspy voice mellows can into a sweet and sincere experience. The message is clearly Rastafarian and their devotion to spreading that message is inspirational. Vaughn delves deep into subjects that are relevant to these times by addressing distinct social problems of today, while decoding ancient philosophies from the past. To complete their enigmatic formula and keep a harmonious weave in their music, Midnite encompasses a heavy use of drum and bass patterns that are reminiscent of the 70’s classic roots period of Jamaican reggae. Midnite does not play by the rules, hence, they are setting a new standard in reggae music.

They have achieved an extensive catalog of albums, and a fan base that continues to grow and expand worldwide. Midnite has become notorious for their live performances, with sets that often exceed three hours. A vigorous and intense sound creates a vibe that penetrates straight to the heart. These epic musical communions have earned Midnite an enormous following throughout the roots reggae community. Midnite’s spiritually connected delivery on stage and in their recordings are exactly what fans respond to, in perilous and joyous times alike.

“Infinite Quality” features a powerful combination of Vaughn Benjamin’s searing lyrics, with the cutting edge productions of Lustre Kings’ producer, Digital Ancient (Andrew “Moon” Bain”). Responsible for coordinating the majority of the musical arrangement and production on this record, ‘Moon’ draws from a diverse musical background to create a sound unprecedented in Midnite’s vast catalogue. There is additional production from LK’s colleagues: I Grade Records, Zion High,  Diego ‘Fuego’ Campo (Noble Society) and Nick Fantastic (Hard Times Riddim). This wide-range of musical contribution combined with Vaughn’s potent lyrical style has lead to “Infinite Quality.” This impressive and unforgettable album is one of a kind in reggae music today. It incorporates seasoned reggae musicians such as Tony Ruption of Third World, Wadi Gad, Dean Pond and the legendary Basil ‘Benbo’ Creary. Equipped with live strings and horn lines all beautifully arranged throughout the album. With genre styles ranging from roots, dancehall to hip-hop, “Infinite Quality” is an album for the ages.

Lyrics:

A who them a program
Who them a young girl have them eye pon
A who them a program
Who informer sit down and a spy pon
A who dem a program
Who Mr. Babylon have them eye pon
Who dem a Program
Who informer sit down and a spy pon

Is a brand new prince pon the scene
Jah a move with me two foot prints that I mean
See him when u see him, general fi the team
This ya reign ya coming draw fi you gabardine
Them a look and a watch like live stream
And mi skunk purple like  Ribena mean
Them a dream like arlene
Bout king them  boy deh a queen like Carlene
No bother tell me say me cant
5 6 7 8 drop in a me path
Eeeeey warrior in a me heart
Philosophic in a mind

We naa watch no face make it do what it do
From the first time when nomads a puupookopuu
Cause dem nuh want see  u in the coupe a go thru
Dem will call Babylon and state trooper fi you
Den then come with them warrant
Kick off door a run in a you  apartment wooii
But the fire ago scawling  oh when dem falling

Eeeeey....But dem power couldn't real
Try all dem want and dem couldn't crack the seal
Eeeeey...Who nun hear dem ago feel

Eeeeey fi mi words dem naa go mute
I see what they do and that really never suit me
Eeeey dem nuh  even know the root

LYRICS

It’s a jungle out there and life is unfair 
for the ones left to scrap for the scrapes
Generations have grown in the same situation: 
tribal warfare, chattel slavery and now taxes
The people never have enough and children are born fatherless 
and families have no one to rely on
so from blood sweat and tears the solution appears
the pride needs defending by a lion

will you be the one for the mountains and valleys are these city streets
will you be the one to keep looking forward and never retreat


in this jungle out there with so many limitations
set intentionally just for us to fail
with your plans in motion and standing in your power
and strength from your lioness you’re bound to prevail
the mission is for those who can endure
and wont stand for injustice and oppression no more
and the journey is for everyone to share
when the lions are leading there is nothing to fear

will you be the one, for the mountains and valleys are these city streets
will you be the one to keep moving forward and never retreat

A future for the youth must be priority
Establishing a nation where they all will be free
To focus on spiritual cultivation 
and find themselves through ancient preparation

in this jungle out there some people mek the evil rule dem nature 
turning life into a rat race
and the youths dem head a burn cause the only thing they’re learning 
from those people’s how to rob you to your face
instead of giving them guidance and encouragement
you’re provoking them daily giving rise to resent
but the tension that they’re building up inside 
will find direction and purpose in the lion pride

will you be the one, for the mountains and valleys are these city streets
will you be the one to keep moving forward and never retreat

oh ‘cause it’s a jungle out there

interlude

A future for the youth must be priority
Establishing a nation where they all will be free
So the lionesses rise to the occasion
And nurture them with conscious meditation


It’s a jungle out there and life is unfair 
for the ones left to scrap for the scrapes
Generations have grown in the same situation: 
tribal warfare, chattel slavery and now taxes
The people never have enough and children are born fatherless 
and families have no one to rely on
so from blood sweat and tears the solution appears
the pride needs defending by a lion

Lyrics

Haile Iditation with this collie on my brain
Steaming censimenia’s most potent native strain
Absorption of the essence frees most every mental chain
Concentrate then dehydrate then load it up again

And get taken up, taken up, into the celestial
Sweetest high that you could ever find
Vapours soaking in, of the green
Tap into the potential of your mind

Now a warning to the weak fence make sure you’re on the defense
Before you let the chains fall
‘cause when you hit that first cough illusions start to burst off
composure is the protocol
steaming on the high grade can sometimes leave you sideways
depending on the content of your heart
Jah children will reach the Most High
While the wicked and the evil fall apart 

When you’re taken up, taken up, into the celestial
Sweetest high that you could ever find
Vapours soaking in, of the green
Tap into the potential of your mind

Interlude

Now lets focus on the flavor
Mango macka from St. E
Pardon my behavior while I talk about the green
But there’s a moment in that first draw
When you exhale, then you inhale, then you hold it 
then you taste it, then you exhale, then you feel it,
then you see what  mean

When you’re taken up, taken up, into the celestial
Sweetest high that you could ever find
Vapours soaking in, of the green
Tap into the potential of your mind

Lyrics

Imagine, if Marcus Garvey was the youths dem example
 what the future would be promising
Imagine if Haile was the teacher and the scriptures were speeches 
to prepare them for the journey to begin
A new perspective on history to enlighten the mistery 
immediately before it seeps in
An opportunity, for unity

Each one must teach one the neighbour’s little yout
Is your son your daughter your sister your brother 
A part of who you must become
In the event, of revolution

Imagine if initiation was a part of the process
 to teach the youths dem discipline
imagine how learning would be heightened by a positive example 
by the ones to whom the youths dem listening
integrity and humility were a given
the standard by which we’d be living 
like one righteous militant community
in unity

Each one must teach one the neighbour’s little yout
Is your son your daughter your sister your brother 
A part of who you must become
In the event, of revolution

 No need to speak specifics there are those who breed hatred
To keep those together apart
But remember that justice is real living judgment
Like cancer you can plant in your own heart
So when it’s hot on the mission even those who lack vision
Can confidently trust in the youth 
If we arm them with the truth
Strong and sterdy from the root

Each one must teach one the neighbour’s little yout
Is your son your daughter your sister your brother 
A part of who you must become
In the event, of revolution

For they are who we will become
In the event
Of revolution


“The solid basis for all lies in education. It is education, which allows people to live together, and makes them avoid the pitfalls of immorality, and induces respect for the law. Truly, the attainment of these high aims is based on education. The helping of people to live together to avoid indulgence immorality and lawlessness. To command and to be commanded is the fruit of education and unity and confidence is the result. Education of the youth is the surest guarantee for a better life. From truth alone are born liberty and only an educated people can consider itself really free and master of it’s fate.”

- HIM Haile Selassie I

Each one must teach one.

Jesse Royal - World Cry

Janine "Jah9" Cunningham

Old school blues improvisation meets hard hitting lyrical prowess in a rich imaginative blend of vocal clarity and complexity. Janine brings her refreshing mix of contemporary and conscious poetry to the stage and delivers a mature, sophisticated style with a unique and captivating energy all of her own. Her musical influences range from Billie Holiday and Nina Simone to Augustus Pablo and Sizzla Kalonji. 

As a singer/songwriter/activist, Janine touches on issues ranging from social injustice, violence, politics and gender to intimate matters of the heart, mind and spirit. Janine a.k.a. ‘Jah9’ has emerged from the underground poetry/live music scene relatively unknown and has earned the hearts and respect of her peers and audiences with each encounter since. 

Over the past 5 years she has been consistently and impressively making her mark on the Jamaican musical landscape, inspiring audiences and musicians alike through her songs and the live productions she has conceptualized and staged. She is now poised for heavy rotation due to her signature sound and collaborations with ace producers including Donovan Bennett of Corleon Records, Sheldon Bernard and Beres Hammond of Harmony House Music, and on her highly anticipated debut album project with Rory "Stonelove" Gilligan. The album is slated for release on February 26, 2013 but Jah9 is already in demand as a songwriter and creative director of repute. 

'Jazz on Dub’ is the sound she has created - a mix of her two favourite music forms, while infusing all expressions of the arts into her live performances. She intends to take her word sounds to the world, entertaining and inspiring all along the way. This young woman is full to the brim and pouring her heart out.
