Born and raised in the Jamaican downtown Kingston ghetto, Jah Lil grew up in a very violent community. But he grew up around good people and it gave his family the necessary tools to survive those hard times. One of those tools was music. Especially gospel music which would lead him as a teenager to a government sponsored gospel song competition which he won with the song ‘Weeping Men.’
On his debut album, Can A Man Cry, Lil strives to create that safe space where men can express themselves by sharing his own life stories and emotions while conveying messages of love, inspiration, and encouragement. Set against a musical backdrop of relaxing Reggae grooves, Can A Man Cry is one of the standout albums this year.
