Independent reggae artist Mighty Joshua’s conscious lyricism, decrying historic and contemporary inequity while praising positivity and resilience, speaks broadly to the experiences of the African diaspora. His words flow over compositions driven by African percussion traditions, creating a real roots reggae sound reminiscent of genre stars like Bob Marley and Peter Tosh. The artist has performed as an opening act for international reggae sensations Culture, Steel Pulse, and Ziggy Marley, and is currently supporting the 2024 release of his latest album, Dreaducation.
