“My music is a modern blend of roots reggae and contemporary sounds. It is a distinctive style of reggae that has the potential to appeal to music enthusiasts globally. I create songs to uplift and inspire the people. Just like Bob Marley’s music, the goal is for my music to last for generations,” AN-JU shared.

He is currently gearing up for the release of his sophomore album, titled Legacy.

The eight-track project, produced by him, will feature songs such as Run Away, featuring Turbulence and Bascom X; Morning Bloom featuring Tishana; Farewell; and Legacy.

“I’m anticipating a positive response when my album is released on February 6. I’m confident that it will be warmly received by reggae fans all over the world because it’s a very good album. All the songs are originals, and I spent a lot of time working on the project with my team to make sure it would be high quality. I must thank Diego (Yung Merciinary Music), Hendrik (Soulfyah Productions), and Adena Myrie for their creativity and professionalism on this project,” he said.
