Dominican reggae artiste signs with Jamaican label

Aima Moses

Dominican reggae artiste. Aima Moses, has signed up with Jamaican record label Donsome Records in a move that he says will take his career to the ‘next level.’

“The relationship with Donsome is wonderful and I admire the way they work with the business,” he said in regards to the deal. “When you are working with people there has to be a certain spirit and chemistry that inspires you, and I feel that with Donsome Records.”

Born Amaziah Moses, he got the name Aima as a nickname while he was still a child growing up in Kingshill and for him reggae music has always been a source of refuge.

He hopes his style of reggae music will bring something new to fans. “Musically, I am bringing a breath of fresh air to the table. More food for thought and this is one of the things my fans have told me over and over again. More righteousness in the music,” he said.

Moses has been involved with music since he was a child and began recording professionally in 2005 when he made his debut with the single ‘Fire Fire’. That same year he released his debut album ‘No Barriers’.

Among his better known songs are, I Smoke, Lady You, Come Closer, Can’t Stay,  All the Same, My Love, No place and Keep it Real.

Aima Moses has worked with a number of producers in reggae music not only across the Caribbean but across Europe.

“I have worked with producers including DeYoung Norville, Black Kings, Gold Cup Records from Italy, Red Boom, Mani Bwoy and Harmoney from Jamaica;  Ras Bruno from the UK, and Ayun Productions from Miami”, Aima revealed.

In 2005, Aima won ‘The best reggae album’ in one of Dominica’s local radio station’s annual event called the DBS Flamboyant Awards for his first album called ‘No Barriers’. He was named best reggae artiste of 2008.

In 2010 he was named New Artiste of the month by Caribbean Music Media and in 2010 his music appeared on an international reggae compilation CD called ‘The mirror Riddim CD.’

    Great job Rasta!

    We have the DFC in Dominica so I will give them an idea;

    Time for a summer concert called “Sisserou Raggae Splashdown” featuring our raggae artists scattered all over the world. The first one should feature, Nasio, Harry Mo and Aima along with some of our well known Raggae Bands near and far.

    I await in great anticipation with bated breath! Nuff Sewo!
