What’s Up with Notnice Records
Notnice’s music production came to prominence as part of the Vybz Kartel’s led Portmore Empire, releasing riddims that have become legendary in dancehall music. Once an active member of Gaza Notnice parted ways with Vybz Kartel following a robbery in the producer music studio back in 2010 and while he expressed the outmost respect for the incarcerated Dancehall King, Notnice kept his distance from the Empire.
The producer was able to bring some of the old Gaza team back together on a song called Empire Medleyand features Blak Ryno, Jah Vinci, Gaza Kym, Lisa Hyper, Doza Medicine and veteran Gaza member Sheba.
The concept behind the title King Midas is simple: King Midas would transform in gold everything he would touch and so Notnice sees himself as a King Midas himself because he has been working with young unknown artists and turned them in superstars. [Popcaan and Alkaline are two examples of that]
King Midas is available for purchase on a all major streaming platforms including iTunes music, with physical copies expected soon. Stream and preview Notnice King Midas album below and click on the iTunes banner on this page to purchase the full album or just your favorite song on it.
