Bio
.. ...... ...... ....... ....Starting from very humble beginnings in the rural woods of Okanogan County, Eastern Washington State, Sick Donkey Records co-owner BlueJay (aka DJ Sticky) and other founding label members; Huckleberry, and Essential I have been collaborating for the last five years. The record label’s first official release was Jahson Ites album, Forward Outta Babylon, featuring Essential I, DJ Sticky, and Adrian Xavier. Since then, the Sick Donkey Records Conscious Music Showcase continues to tour as a unit with Jahson Ites, Essential I, Huckleberry and DJ Sticky. The second release from SDR was Essential I's debut album FreeDem SoulJah an 18 track album with a blend of Reggae / Dancehall & Hip-Hop featuring Promoe (of LoopTroop Rockers - Sweden) as well as the other Sick Donkey Records label mates. Over the past few years, the label has expanded out to work with artists and producers globally with talents from nearly 20 different nations. In 2009, Sick Donkey Records has released its third full-length CD, the 19 track various artists compilation, Standing Firm Riddim. The compilation features the Sick Donkey Records stable artists, Jahson Ites, Huckleberry, and Essential I and a full array of top global Reggae artists. Pulling together the best Reggae artists from the Pacific Northwest (Adrian Xavier), Humboldt County, California (Ishi Dube, Jah Sun), SF Bay Area (Wisdom), Brooklyn, NY (Rocker T) and the four corners of the Earth: Lutan Fyah, Chezidek, Half Pint, Prezident Brown (Jamaica), Haji Mike (Cyprus), Ras Attitude (U.S. Virgin Islands), Ms Triniti (Trinidad), Promoe (Sweden), Elaine Shepherd (Canada), and Ras Indio (Belize), was a natural for the CD project in the spirit of the label’s World C.U.P. (World Consciousness Unification Project) vision for global unity through conscious Reggae music.

In doing this we think it possible to spread a peaceful and important message to people in all walks of life. Also, The World C.U.P. will bridge the gaps between social classes, races, nations & continents while providing an optimistic approach to bettering our ways of life and our natural habitats. With this project we plan to bring perspective to a global society in need of a positive outlook. The project will consist of collaborations and individual contributions by well-known artists and composers as well as lesser-known upcoming artists. .. .. ....The Standing Firm Riddim CD is only the first installment, the spark to the fire, which is this movement. With the support of artists and fans we hope to turn the World C.U.P. into a renowned movement for the advancement of consciousness and unity through cultural music... .. .. Praise for the Standing Firm Riddim .. “The Standing Firm sampler features a great one-drop roots riddim with some blazing horns and some excellent voicings….this is fine ‘one riddim’ selection from start to finish.” – Teacher and Mr T Reggae-Vibes.com Netherlands .. “Global guest artists like Lutan Fyah, Ras Indio, Promoe and company set the pace for a contemporary roots groove that helps bring reggae into the 21st Century.” – Chuck Foster BEAT Magazine columnist / Host: KPFK-FM Los Angeles “ Reggae Central” .. "…out of all the various riddim/label goals/initiatives I’ve heard of, BY FAR, Sick Donkey’s is off to the most promising start in recent memory with such a piece becoming its foundation...the Standing Firm riddim itself has a MAJOR claim on being the single best riddim I heard altogether in 2008 and its subsequent album should have a place FIRMLY in the collections of most fans of modern Reggae, worldwide. One of the best riddims I've ever heard" - Ras Achis, 'Amazon Music's unoficial king of Reggae .. “Here is a new American production label "Sick Donkey Records" and found a "Lutan Fyah" in great form on the track "Watch Over Me" but also "Norris Man" duet with "Jah Sun" for the song "All For Myself. "It is always with great pleasure that we discover the benefits of" Prezident Brown "and it is again totally conquered by the great" Lion Heart "," Chezidek "appears also to its advantage with entitled "Music Is Love" as "Ras Attitude" with the very good "Fret no Thyself"! – ReggaeUnite.Blogspot.com France .. "This CD is an amazing collection of lyrical songs and raw reality channeling the spirit of Roots Reggae music. Track after track, Standing Firm delivers an all-star sound. It invites you into these conscious universal collaborations of reggae music and will not leave any taste of disappointment. Certainly, this compilation delivers a well-constructed project for the new and old Reggae fans alike." -Lady J – Host of KCSB-FM Santa Barbara “Positive Heights” .. ......CD Track Listing: 1.
