Now Spice gears up for a new year of recording his signature soulful and culturally conscious vibes that deem him a permanent fixture in representing reggae music around the globe. “I want to make music for the youths and address topics that affect them” states Spice. “I want to help our next generation know so they can choose not just a quick and easy path but the right one. It’s our turn to look out for the new generation and help them fulfill their potential.
