Description: ZIGGY MARLEY AND THE MELODY MAKERS – JAHMEKYA CD FACTORY SEALED On this album Ziggy was no longer the main songwriter, as his siblings joined in, notablyDavid, who composed many of the tracks on Jahmekya. The album has a much toughersound than previous records, and its digitized beats are indebted to Jamaica's dancehalls.Stephen's growing interest in this scene is evident on "Raw Riddim," a pure dancehall number,stripped down to the beats. However, the other members of the group are pulling away frominfluences of their homeland toward the urban contemporary sounds pouring from the U.S.Much of Jahmekya explores this style, twining in funk, soul, and modern R&B into the group'smix. Of course there's still a sprinkling of reggae pop tracks and rootsy dance numbers, but it'sclear that the group is moving beyond these old sounds and evolving a more contemporary style.This album was nominated for a Grammy.
