firm strides towards being a legend and now inspires, motivates and moves
the spirits of audiences around the world.
The 40 year old Jamaican has racked up testimony after
testimony from people, who, upon hearing his performances are moved to
think and live above the physical and the material.
Discovered in the dancehall working
with sounds systems like Earthquake and Earth Ruler, Luciano attracted
the attention of Chris Blackwell’s Island records in 1994
and, having signed the singer, went on the produce the internationally
successful album “Where is the Love”. The album’s
title track and singles like “It’s me Again Jah”
and “Lord Give Me Strength” charted number one in Jamaica
and on international reggae charts.
After much success under his own label, Messenjah
and Qabalah Music, Luciano successfully toured North America and Europe
