Phabian, I-Bar team up with Boorook from Australia for ‘No More War’
Conscious reggae artistes Phabian and I-Bar have connected with Australian aborigine artiste Boorook on a powerful new single titled ‘No More War’ that seems destined to hit the world stage.
The song, partly recorded in Boorook’s own studio in Warrnambool, Australia, and DJ Neil’s Cash Flow Recording Studio in Kingston, is quickly picking up steam globally since being recently released, with rotations already on radio stations across several countries, including in Jamaica.
Bringing a wide cultural mix within the Australian and Jamaican collaboration, ‘No More War’ represents another bold step along the musical journeys for both Phabian and I-bar, with the latter especially having tasted some level of success in the business over the years, including having toured the Caribbean and much of Europe as a backup vocalist.
I-Bar cited that ‘No More War’, based on its all-positive span of reviews globally since its release, is being widely received as an anthem.
“Interestingly, all the reviews from far and wide are saying pretty much the same thing, so it simply can’t be a lie!” I-Bar, given name Remor Ibar, said.
“The link with Boorook, with whom I developed a connection on Instagram, has been solid and authentic for us both. With his strong roots in the business of conscious music, he picked up on my works in the same direction, and the collaboration on ‘No More War’ was a no-brainer for us from that point,” Phabian, the other half of the duo, said.
“Getting I-Bar into the project was similarly smooth, as he is of the some philosophy like us musically, and the rhythm and backbone to the lyrics from Boorook were taken through the Jamaican stages under the direction of DJ Neil of Cash Flow Recording Studio.
“Boorook then put in the final technical works, and here we are with the big, bouncing single, ‘No More War’, added Phabian, who was born Fabian Robinson.
Both are in high spirits at the energy that now surrounds the single which is being promoted globally by Groover out of Paris, France, which has already been channelling the work onto playlists far and wide, along with the relevant musical business platforms.
But having parted ways with the outfit, Phabian has been focussed on trying to build his career independently.
“Now it is all about the promotion, the penetration on the world stage where the song’s relevance, including timing, is being viewed by reviewers from far and wide globally as a most potent message for the world at present,” Phabian added.
