Rob Symeonn
Spark Igniter”. The description that veteran singer ROB SYMEONN has attained since he first emerged on Easy Star Records in the 1990s. Rob has worked with numerous producers from all over Creation with clarity and purpose. “State Of Emergency” is his latest collaboration and showcases his long standing link with Maui’s ROOTZ N CREATION; who have been a mainstay in Roots music for years now. No flickering of the Fyah here...
Rob Symeonn burst to international attention with “Easy Star Vol.1” (1998) with “Anything For JAH” and “If I’m Not Loving Jah.” He has never looked back. He released his debut album, ”Abso-Rootly-Hot” (2001) with Hawaii’s “The Heartical Crew.” Garnered critical acclaim. “The Chosen One” (2005) furthered his credentials. He continued to record some amazing singles along the way. In 2014, “Indigenous” was released by Hawaii’s Jah Youth Productions (respect to Jeffrey Boehler). Unarguably his finest album to date. Since then, Rob has released superb singles and Ep’s along with memorable live performances in California and Hawaii. This year will see a slew of new material from the Rootsman.
Rootz N Creation
Rootz N Creation is essentially the vision of Kaleo De Mello, who creates and produces Royal sounds with help from singers and musicians from Maui and Hawaii massive.

Big things ahead for RNC. “State Of Emergency” features musicians Kaleo (Jahleo), Lane, Merv, Pono, Brenton and veteran Jahson. Top grade mix and production by Kaleo.
