KOFFEE CREATE HISTORY WIN GRAMMY FOR BEST REGGAE ALBUM.



Koffee has now created history by becoming the youngest reggae act and also the first female artist to win the Grammy for “Best Reggae Album”.

Gratitude is a must for 19-year-old Mikayla Simpson, also known as Koffee. The reggae star snatched the Grammy award for “Best Reggae Album” for her “Rapture” EP at the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles this afternoon

On receiving the Grammy award, she showed gratitude to her fellow nominees for their gifts to reggae and proclaimed her victory for reggae music and Jamaica 🇯🇲.
Rapture spent a remarkable 32 weeks on Billboard’s Reggae albums chart after debuting at number one.

The EP’s lead single “Toast” was arguably the biggest reggae single of 2019, earning worldwide airplay and been featured by many international celebrities, including former US President, Barack Obama.

The extraordinary Koffee was nominated among Julian Marley with “As I Am”, Sly & Robbie & Roots Radics with “The Final Battle” and “More Work To Be Done” by Third World, which was produced by Damian Marley.

In the next few days, Koffee will perform at the Viewtopia Music Festival, during Superbowl weekend, from January 31 to February 1 at Marlins Park, Miami. In April, she will perform at Coachella for the first time.
