ZION JUDAH is a singer/songwriter/producer, who's style is best described as an innovative, "Bob Marleyesque", cutting-edge, message-driven sound. His songs reveal moods of deep thought and conscious rhetoric, symbiotically fused with a formidable and distinct vocal delivery with range, smoothness and tempered intensity. Inherent in his sound, is an underlying modern, utopian, Rasta vibe that blends Roots Reggae with Urban/Alternative elements to create a wicked musical recipe.

ZION JUDAH (b. Angelo Damian Singh), bears an Afro/East-Indian, multi-ethnic, West Indian background and was born in Trinidad & Tobago. Since 1992 he has resided in NYC, where he does his own production at his grassroots, indie label/studio called Mt. Zion Records. Here he recorded and mixed his debut album - "Divine Creation" (2004 MTZ Music/BMI), as well as his current singles, "Good Sensi"," C.Y.O.R.", "Quest" and "Roots & Culture", just to mention a few.

He has also worked with notable, as well as, up and coming producers, bands and artists such as Ewart Wilson Jr. aka Heavy Metal (who co-produced the title track "Divine Creation" and 3 more cuts on ZJ's debut album. Ewart has produced for platinum artists like John Legend, Tyrese, Zhane as well as Beenie Man), Johnny Kemp (who had a no. 1 hit - "Just Got Paid"), Dan Wallace (who sang the hook on De La Soul's " Shopping Bags"), Ruff Stuff Band, 5 Outta 12 Band, Reggae Experience Band, Khari Kill ("Picture of Selassie"), Juicy aka Jah Bami, Populah, Kapa-Shanti, Dainjahmentalz, Aloe (from Method Man's Crew) and a host of others.
