"Without love there is no justice and without justice there is no peace" is the mission of the band. The Grammy-Award- winning band was formed in 1975 & remains a mainstay in the reggae scene.

Inner Circle has garnered fans of reggae and pop throughout their career especially after their hit single "Bad Boys" feature in the Eddie Murphy soundtrack for Beverly Hills Cop III, which years later became the title song for Will Smith/Martin Lawrence action film "Bad Boys". Morgan Heritage. Nearly two decades and ten albums later, the mission has come full circle for Morgan Heritage. Globally known as the “Royal Family of Reggae,” and now today being dubbed as the “Rolling Stones of Reggae” (in large part due to the act’s electric stage shows), Morgan Heritage has established themselves as the premiere live group on the reggae circuit. Mavado. With dancehall hits from the early 90s to present, Mavado has established himself as one of main staples of the dancehall arena.With his signing to DJ Khaled’s record label We the Best Music Group in 2011, Mavado has expanded his reach beyond the dancehall scene and into the hip hop world collaborating with the likes of Meek Mill, Ace Hood & Akon. It was also recently confirmed that he would be featured on tracks on new albums from both Rick Ross & Iggy Azalea, poising him for a breakout year in 2014. Konshens. Dubbed the” Prince of Dancehall", Konshens is rapidly climbing the ladder of international stardom.
