Akane is one of a few successful female reggae/dancehall Japanese singers. Over the last 10 years, she has performed throughout the length and breadth of Japan, perpetuating her own unique style. She released her first major debut solo album, Expression, and followed up with another album, Straighter.

Touring all over Japan her first solo live show was a huge success which has now spawned to North America.

"This is a good look, not only for me but also for the genre. The fans, especially internationally have been showing me a lot of love. Much respect must also be given to all the jocks across the world who have been giving me support because, as we all know, DJs are an integral part of the success of any song," said Bramma.

Locally, 'Di Gorilla' is gearing up for LIME Skool Aid concert this Sunday, at Jamworld Complex in Portmore, ahead of a series of shows across the Caribbean diaspora. His first stop will be Arnos Vale Stadium in Kingstown, St Vincent, on October 27th.

Meanwhile, the deejay and his team are expected to release two new videos, Feel A Vibes and Gorilla Holiday, whereas plans are afoot to shoot a third. The projects were directed by Simeon Hedge and Michael Burbridge, respectively.
