Vaughn Benjamin, the voice of Midnite and Akae Beka, is one of the most prolific reggae lyricists of the modern era. He was a scholar, poet and teacher. He released over 80 albums in a 25-year period.
In late October of 2019, Vaughn travelled to Grass Valley, California to record at Ras Biblical’s studio, Trinity Farm. Earlier this year, the album “Living Testament” album was released from those sessions.
Yet, there’s more to this story! In Biblical’s words:
“THE AKAE BEKA SCROLLS manifested through the creative brilliance of Vaughn Benjamin as super-producer magnetizing the musicians to this inity of spirit and mind, calling on all skillfulness.
These 12 dubs are a sound of veteran players of instruments inna oneness and brothers inna oneness across the whole earth! Coming together for a reason, each dub precisely directed by Vaughn. With humbleness each musician brought to life in real time such harmony and powers, this music is the reason, the cream of the crop.”
