Armed with cultural diversity and an appreciation for genres beyond his own, Conkarah has become one of the biggest up and coming artists of the year.
While continuing to harness the energy of Kingston, Conkarah took it upon himself to mobilize the power of the digital space and launch a YouTube channel to spread the reggae vibes. Now, with over 413,000 subscribers, 144 million views, a #1 on the Global Viral Spotify chart, and adds to the buzziest playlists, his continued regular uploads of both covers and originals add further dimensions to his ever evolving brand.
With several successful tours under his belt and a new EP titled ‘Timeless Love,' released spring 2017 (the lead single featuring Jamaican legend Beenie Man) – Conkarah continues to take his ‘posi vibes only’ approach to the mainland and beyond.​​
