  • Akae Beka is a roots reggae band from Saint Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, which was founded by members of the band Midnite following a change in their membership in 2015. In February that year, the former band Midnite canceled their 2015 tour and postponed dates "due to a life-changing medical emergency, convictions, and revelations". #shorts #shortstory #shortsvideos #dancehall #reggaemusic #reelsfb #youtubeshorts #CZcams #Jamaica #usa #BobMarley #midnite #southafrica #ghana # #Ethiopia #zimbabwe #reggae #reggaetontiktok #shortmovie #africa #reelsinstagram #roots #youtube #nigeria #africa #naijamusic #gregoryisaacs #reggaemusic #reelsvideo #reggaegistxtra

    Midnite/Akae Beka’s music is true vibrations of frequency that takes your soul to a deeper realm. Not many music can do that to the human structure. 🙏🏾
    May he rest in Power.
    Was a pleasure to meet him in Toronto.

    Was introduced to Vaughn Benjamin works as both Midnight and Akae Beka their "Word Sound and Power" by a Rastaman who is my friend and neighbour on my street, used to string up my sound in his Mother's back yard for celebrations and he would always say you must listen to his poetry as it transcends the concept of the usual format of formulaic reggae lyrics - bringing back a far older tradition of oral history from the Ancestors ❤ - as a group of friends we travelled to Brixton london venue to hear him perform - was a great privilege to hear his Word Sound & Power for little known to me and my Bredrens this was the last time 😢
