NEW YORK, NY (RHONA FOX, INC.) - May­bach Music Group founder and rap star Rick Ross has touched down in Kingston, Jamaica to launch his artist Mag­a­zeen to the dance­hall com­mu­nity. Jamaican-born Mag­a­zeen is the only dance­hall act signed to the Miami-based label, May­bach Music Group (MMG), which has a joint ven­ture through Def Jam — a syn­gery Mag­a­zeen is look­ing to cap­i­tal­ize on with his fusion of dance­hall, hip-hop, R&B and pop sounds and thus inter­na­tional appeal.

His ver­sa­tile musi­cal style can be sam­pled on Ross’ sin­gle “Yatch Club,” on his cur­rent album, Deeper Than Rap. “I’m com­ing like a loaded clip with my music,” dis­closes Mag­a­zeen, on his launch in Jamaica — the moth­er­land of reg­gae and dance­hall music.

While in Jamaica, Mag­a­zeen and Ross will be shoot­ing not one but three videos, as they aim to cap­ture the real­ity of Jamaica on screen, as lyri­cally depicted in their songs. The videos are for new sin­gles “Psalms 27,” “Seven Eleven” and “Real Jamaicans.” Both Ross and Mag­a­zeen will also per­form on Sat­ur­day, August 22 at dance­hall king Bee­nie Man’s annual birth­day bash, Sum­mer Siz­zle.

“I’m here to show Jamaica new May­bach Music star Mag­a­zeen and what he can do,” states Ross. “And we’re going to take advan­tage of being here to get the real Jamaican fla­vor for our videos to show the world.”

“I’m happy to be com­ing home to Jamaica,” reveals Mag­a­zeen, who cur­rently resides in Miami. “I love my peo­ple and it’s great to be back to expe­ri­ence the vibes as I’m work­ing on tak­ing our music to the inter­na­tional level and to all cor­ners of the globe.”
