Tarrus Riley’s Contagious album now released

Reggae singer Tarrus Riley’s new album Contagious has been released by VP Records. The set features 18 tracks, four of which have already made an impression on various reggae charts in Jamaica and around the Caribbean.

A video for the single Love’s Contagious was recently directed by Jason ‘Jay Will’ Williams.

Love’s Contagious which was produced by Dean Fraser, is featured on the revived ‘Coming in from the cold’ rhythm track, which accompanied Bob Marley’s track of the same name.

‘It’s a blessing to be working with Jay Will and it’s been really good so far. He has a lot of ideas and the chemistry is just natural’, Tarrus Riley related to this column on the set of the video shoot.

Some of the familiar tracks that are included on the 18 track set include the cover of Michael Jackson’s Human Nature (which is currently occupying local music charts), and the current chart hit Good Girl Gone Bad featuring Konshens.

‘The fans are going to love this album. There is something on there for everyone’, Riley confided.
