International Reggae artist Imanuel Walsh has been making strides locally with the release of his current single "Revolution". The song which is from his latest album "Deep Within" also features rising Deejay UT Ras and has been receiving a lot of airplay both locally and abroad. The accompanying video for "Revolution" has also received much attention on local television stations and has climbed to the top of several local video charts. "Deep Within" is available in Jamaica through In Di Streets distribution and in America through Ernie B's Reggae. However "Deep Within" will be released in Japan on January 16, 2008 by Deaiki Sound Company, under a joint venture distribution agreement between Imanuel's Jah Seh So Imprint and Deaiki Sound Company. Following the release of the album Imanuel will embark on a tour of Japan starting on February 15th. A documentary about Imanuel's life and the making of "Deep Within" was released in Japan on the 19th of November, as a part of the promotion for "Deep Within".
Imanuel Walsh is no stranger to the Japanese market having released previous solo efforts such as “Aspects of Love”, “Love's Attraction” and “Rasta Love” all of which were done for Japanese record label Alfa International Records. He has also recorded albums with the Japanese group Sanshiro & Tao on Sony Records Japan. However “Deep Within” is his first album to be released in Jamaica.
Imanuel is also booked to perform on one of Jamaica's biggest events for the upcoming holiday season Sting 2007, which will take place on December 26th. He has also performed on several sting Roads shows and has been well received by the audiences. He plans to deliver a high quality performance at Sting as he knows it one of the premier events of the season. Imanuel Walsh says "I will be giving the Sting crowd something to remember, good cultural roots music with a positive Dancehall flavor"
