Upliftment is a self-produced reggae band based in Paris. Founded in 2013 by Klint (keys, arrangements), the group was later joined by singer-songwriter, Natty Kauka, and a host of musicians of various styles and backgrounds, all united in the goal of mixing authentic Jamaican reggae with jazz, funk, soul, afrobeat and Caribbean stylings.

Starting with songs like "Open Arms," "Believe In Jah" and roots-oriented titles such as "Run Dem Run" and "Boom Bye Bye," the band eventually found its calling, led by a party-inducing horn section led by Yann on trumpet and a rhythm section with Fabien on bass, Guillaume on guitar and Luke on drums. 

In 2014, the band honed its arrangements and developed its signature style under Klint's direction. Delving deep into improvisation, jazz-funk riffs and Natty Kauka's penchant for dancehall, Upliftment created a modern, urban sound rooted in the fundamentals of reggae.

2015 saw the arrival of Charlie on trombone and Bijoux on backing vocals, and new tracks like "Hiroshima," "Love Rising" and "whole of them Chat" redefined the band's sound with new soul-inspired inflections.

Supported by MSF producer, Israel Rinaldo, Upliftment played its first concerts in 2015. The band quickly landed onstage with the likes of The Roots Engine and Youkou Kla. In 2016, Upliftment will be bringing its music to the people with even more concerts and a first foray into the studio to record its first album.

DON'T JUST LIKE, LISTEN; DON'T JUST LISTEN, COMMENT; DON'T JUST COMMENT, SHARE!
I don't respond to musicians that just add numbers, and i don't respond to musicians that just click the like button, because it doesn't prove they actually listened.

Just clicking the like button doesn't prove the tune has been listened to; anyone can click a like button, and if you don't comment because you think my music is crap in comparison to your own, please say so!

NOT SURE WHETHER LISTENERS SERIOUSLY UNDERESTIMATE MY CREATIVE TALENT, OR WHETHER I SERIOUSLY OVERESTIMATE IT!



The homophobe accuses me of being homosexual, the homosexual accuses me of being homophobic....the truth is, I'm neither! 


Confirmation that BIGOTRY = STUPIDITY! And that bigotry is widespread among the oppressed and the oppressor, the victim and the villain, the overlord and the underdog--which is why, when these groups change places, the roles are simply reversed--underdog becomes overlord, overlord becomes underdog! No one really wants TRUE JUSTICE, A BALANCED SOCIETY, they just want a single slice of the cake, they want the whole cake! 

We belong to 'THE ME FIRST GENERATION!'

If musicians you exchange support with were CYBER-SHUNNING a certain musician on Soundcloud and this was undeservedly destroying that musicians chances of getting heard, would you bow to peer pressure or would you continue supporting the musician they were targeting regardless?
