Gigging steadily all over New Jersey and the surrounding area for many years has earned this group a reputation as one of the tightest Reggae and Ska outfits around. You'll find out why when you give this, their second studio effort, a listen.

Brand new releases on the Version City and Freedom Sounds labels!
"Fortitude" is the latest boom shot roots reggae riddim rocking out of King Django's Version City Studio in New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA! It was written and recorded by Django as the first riddim for the Version City Rockers' "Darker Roots" sessions and features the original drums and bass team from Boston's Skavoovie and the Epitones-- Ben "Benny Beats" Herson and Rob Joost. The rest of the Version City Rockers crew on this release are King Django on piano and percussion, the Slackers' Vic Ruggiero on organ, Jamaican music legends Sugar Minott and Glen Brown on percussion and guitarists Brett Tubin and the late Shane Gooding.
A few months after the riddim was layed down, original Jamaican dancehall singer Johnny Osbourne came in to do a massive dubplate session and blessed Django's riddim with a killer vocal! Django carried the song down to Kingston, Jamaica in January of 2007. On the strength of this tune he was able to start Version City records with support and distribution from veteran reggae producer Bertram Brown, who has run his own Freedom Sounds label since the 1970
