Cocoa Tea & Bobby Digital Music is Business
VP Records
Cocoa Tea presents Music is Our Business. A compilation album of fifteen reggae songs featuring the vocal talents of Cocoa Tea. Produced by Bobby “Digital” Dixon, the album captures the majesty of the time from 1987 to 2003. The beauty of hindsight is the opportunity to appreciate the past. And the five previously unreleased recordings add value to this iconic collector’s item. Published by VP Records, March 2019, this contribution to the art historical iconology of Cocoa Tea and the iconography of reggae music is available across all platforms.
To relate to the artist Cocoa Tea is to study his contribution to music. At the frontline of reggae music for over 35 years, his work is a hybrid of talent and character. Respect his ownership of the creative culture and his national pride as a Jamaican. And in the international space, Cocoa Tea’s performances show his commitment to discipline and a respect of his artistry. As well, he is an advocate for his peers as Buju Banton and rising talents as Koffee. With the launch of his active wear line CocoRobics and a tour scheduled for 2019, Cocoa Tea is also sustaining an entrepreneurial approach towards art and business.
In this meeting of the minds we have the ambassador in residence, Bobby Digital. The Maestro. A producer skilled in the technical and emotive ways to capture sound. An expert in perceiving culture reasonings and the climate of the settings. And the founder of the Digital B label. So, this album is more than just music. It is an opportunity to gain knowledge and appreciate the financial and cultural contribution of reggae music to the island of Jamaica and the international sphere.
