I want to meet and play music with people that are sincere and not just in it for fame and fortune. San Diego is a great place with beutiful people and lots of easy access to the environment."

“Love makes the world, makes the world spin ‘round - we give a lot of lovin’ and its comin’ back around.” So goes the chorus and overall vibe of Reggae Rock Hop, Shaka Buku’s latest musical feast of reggae, rock, funk, and hip-hop.

Anchored by the powerful and very distinctive voice of Shaka (a.k.a. Chad Nellis), Reggae Rock Hop is a masterpiece of musical adventure, with hypnotic bass lines, unforgettable melodies, beautifully arranged horns, driving rhythms and jumpin beats. Brimming with life, Shaka Buku elevates listeners to rejoice and dance.

Shaka defines his own eclectic style and message as directly influenced by the simplicity and social consciousness of Bob Marley, the funk and groove of Stevie Wonder and the Power and edge of Led Zeppelin. An all-star cast of musicians contributed to Reggae Rock Hop, most notably, Pancho Tomaselli; who has worked with the likes of Nelly Furtado, Common, Mary J Blige, Santana, Chaka Kahn and War.

Shaka Buku’s mission “is to awaken the joy and power in people. This joy and power once manifested in each individual creates happiness one by one and will eventually help create world peace.”
