about

Coming from the mystic island of St. Croix in the Virgin Islands, the full length album “Swords of Wisdom” was created by the cooperation of the mighty vocalist Ancient King and veteran producer Kiva.

The music bridges the worlds of classic dub and contemporary electronic beats with uplifting lyrical messages inspired by the teachings of Emperor Haile Selassie I.

Recorded at Adios Babylon Studios and Aqua Sound Studios, St. Croix USVI
