Steele, in what he sees as his greatest challenge to date, has just recently completed the remake of Bob Marley s critically acclaimed song "Slave Driver".
Not many singers have attempted to reproduce a song recorded by the King of reggae, but Steele sees this as an honor and also his way of showing respect to the man whose music is so universal. He says, "it is always very risky to mess with songs that have been so well produced and delivered. Furthermore, people can be very unforgiving if what you do with the song does not measure up to the level where the original production was, so this is very challenging for me as a producer and more so as the artist.
If you do a good job, then it s ok and everyone is happy, if not, then for sure you ll hear about it". The preliminary reaction to Steele s arrangement of "Slave Driver" has been very positive and no less is expected when he launches this track in Jamaica later this month. The music video for the song will once again be done by Fabrikated ProjeX.
