Luciano’s latest CD entitled "Revelation Time" has hit the store shelves, and it is once again setting the standard for Rastafari inspired reggae music. "Luci"( say Lou chee) as his fans call him, have come to expect no less from this ever talented roots messenger.

In his first track, featuring Triston Palma as a guest singer, Luciano stays true to his Rasta beliefs and attests to the importance of the sacramental herb given to man by the lord God, Jah Rastafari.

Not to mention current warriors in Jah Army, Mikey General, Tony Rebel and Louie Culture.

There are many familiar riddims found on "Revelation Time", such as the soulful "No Matter", which is on the Mighty Diamonds’ original, "I need A Roof" riddim.

A new anthem is born in "Warning"on the popular Golden Hen riddim. "All this senseless killing Jah Jah know not right" , "The almighty God is not sleeping" Heed Jah Messenger’s "Warning" and live up, live right in Jah sight. His earnest instructions are very timely in these perilous times.

The Album’s title track "Revelation Time" Luciano declares "it’s a shame and disgrace what has happened to the human race" "Mankind has gone astray" It is time to recognize the signs Jah has shown us in this judgement time , and Luciano makes them known in this song.
