• Link

Reggae firebrand Queen Ifrica has released her highly anticipated fourth album, Breath of Life, via Nuh Rush Records. Featuring production work from longtime collaborator, current manager, and Nuh Rush Records chief, Junior Brown (aka IAmNuhRush), as well as multiple-Grammy winner Stephen “Ragga” Marley, the 13-track project, which includes the previously released singles “Mom Like Me” and “Lanton (Lantern),” is out today on all digital platforms.

The title track, produced by Stephen Marley, serves as a fitting opener for the album, as Queen Ifrica delivers an emotional prayer of thanks and praise over Marley’s acoustic orchestral arrangement

It is then followed by 12 tracks of masterful one drop reggae showcasing the Montego Bay native’s vocal chops and lyrical prowess on a range of material that covers the full spectrum of human experience as Queen Ifrica offers reflections on life, love, spirituality, and sensuality. Junior Brown spearheads the production, backed by top-tier Jamaican maestros like Colin “Bulby” York and Jason “j-Vibe” Farmer, equipping Breath of Life with the heavy bass and driving beats necessary to match the power of the “Fyah Muma’s” captivating delivery.

Queen Ifrica shared her thoughts on the new complete body of work:“Working on this album was my absolute pleasure. I completely and totally enjoyed every moment of the process — the people I got to work with, the record label I’m a part of. The energy every time in the studio when we met to do the recordings was always on the highest of frequencies.” “I’m so humbled and honored that the project is finally here, about to be released to a beautiful audience of music lovers all over the world. I pray that it will bring comfort to the listeners’ ears, joy to the spirit, and all the different emotions that I shared in the album will be accepted with a wholesomeness that is unexplainable.”
