Over the course of a year, Protoje has had a whirlwind of success.
He landed his first GRAMMY-nomination for his fourth album “A Matter Of Time” [stream it clicking here] (out via In.Digg.Nation Collective and Easy Star Records) for Best Reggae Album, garnered features in Rolling Stone magazine, Vogue and Paper and made his national U.S. TV debut in May (performing the album’s latest single “Like This” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon).
A rebroadcast of this performance aired on July 1. Since his album release, he recruited fellow Jamaican comrades Agent Sasco (Assassin) and Lila Iké for his latest call-to-action single “Not Another Word.”
