The roots reggae collection known as Man On Earth Riddim first appeared in Jamaica in 1999. This anthology quickly became a favorite among reggae fans, standing out for its powerful message and classic sound. At the center of the project are four respected artists: Luciano, Mikey General, Prince Malachi, and Roaring Lion. Luciano, known for his uplifting voice and conscious lyrics, delivers the standout track "When Man On Earth." Luciano is also widely recognized for his hit song "It's Me Again Jah," which helped make him a household name in roots reggae. Mikey General, another important figure in the genre, brings warmth and spirit with his song "How Could I Want." Mikey General is known for his collaborations with reggae greats, including working frequently alongside Luciano. Prince Malachi adds his own touch with the heartfelt "Mother Dont Fret."
