Crowned kings of urban reggae NOBLE SOCIETY, bring their mash-up of ‘hiphop meets dancehall’ with the release of a new album, Take Charge.
“Noble Society harkens back to a time when the term ‘hip hop meets dancehall’ meant more than slapping Sean Paul on a remix.” ––The Village Voice
Brooklyn, NY (September 15, 2008) – With their genre-bending electronic-tinged single “She told me” currently rocking international airwaves (BBC Radio, WKCR), Noble Society is a band ready to brand themselves as the evolution of dancehall. Noble’s futuristic reggae sound, with a world-view, incorporates both their quintessential reggae roots and their need to represent Brooklyn’s vibrant cultural milieu.
Comprised of musicians who have worked with a “who’s who” of music (Me’Shell Ndegeocello, Branford Marsalis, John Kale, Luciano), Noble Society was born out of a desire to blend the sounds of dancehall with hip hop and world music – call it urban reggae. Taking note from the grime scene currently brewing in London, the Noble Society sound is worldwide energy, says founder, and guitar virtuoso, Diego “Fuego” Campo.
