Osujah Records continues its steady stream of releases with ‘Cook A Pot’, a song by Buzz Weh, which hits the market on April 14.
An ode to Jamaican cuisine, ‘Cook A Pot’ follows ‘Making Progress’ by Mystic Warrior which came out in March. ‘Self Reliance’ by label founder and producer Lady Donna was released last summer.
“Whenever I am producing music, my attention is first focused on the lyrical content. I ask myself what is the message that the words communicate, and what is the feeling I get after listening the song. Those words and vibe must strike positive, uplifting or truth awakening, truth-validating chords, as inspired by the Most High,” she said.
Born in Kingston, Jamaica, Lady Donna has lived in the United States for almost 40 years. She launched Osujah Records seven years ago and has since released songs by a number of artists, many of them from rural Jamaica.
That trend continues with Mystic Warrior who is from St. Mary parish and Buzz Weh, who was born and raised in neighboring St Ann parish.
According to Lady Donna, her productions carry a consistent theme.
“I chose to work with these two artists as well as all my other artists for the same reasons. Their music spoke to me, and I heard Jah voice through their music. My job is to connect Jah people to Jah, and organizers, coordinators, facilitators, vocalists, singers, and players of instruments are some of the vehicles that the Almighty uses to make the connection,” she said.
