The resurgence of reggae music has come with an unintended but

welcomed byproduct – a wave of artistes showing appreciation for their colleagues.

Continuing

this vein of musical support, Grammy-nominated artiste Protoje extended his

appreciation to Grammy winner Koffee on the weekend.

Protoje,

in a social media post Saturday, posted a picture of a smiling Koffee with the

caption “thanks for all you’re doing for Jamaican Music and Culture. Keep

shining†and tagged the Rapture

singer.

The

unprompted show of gratitude resonated with many of Protoje’s followers, who

added their thanks in the comments. One said, “Jah Jah. Ar smile just brighten

up mi dayâ€.

Another commenter

replied, “You are such an awesome human being. A helper, a doer, a mover, a

shaker, a leader an example setter, a supporter – Yes Iâ€, while a third said, “Facts.

Young legendâ€.

Protoje and Koffee recently collaborated on a track, Switch It Up, for his recently released album In Search Of Lost Time. The reviews for the song have been overwhelmingly positive with many praising both artistes for their respective flow on the song.

Another reggae star, Chronixx, also applauded Koffee’s achievements recently, saying the Lockdown singer has inspired his new style. “After seeing how she approach her creativity, it was just like a breath of fresh air. Whenever people used to tell me my music is such a breath of fresh air, it’s the first time I got to experience it from a artiste that was a few years younger than me…†Chronixx said in a Hot 97 interview in July.
