About BUNNY RUGS:

Following the success of Third World’s latest album “Patriots”, released in January 2011 on the band’s newly formed Third World Music Group label with distribution from NY based reggae independent VP Records, Rugs has previously released three solo albums: “To Love Somebody” a Lee “Scratch” Perry” production, “What A World” and “I’m Sure”. Rugs will be releasing his fourth solo project “TIME” in on his Raw Edge Production label in 2012. “The title was deliberately chosen to reflect my belief that if you don't have respect for TIME, you don't have respect for yourself,” explained Rugs, who is also one of the primary songwriters for Third World. “I have been working on “TIME” for about three years now with an amazing group of producers and musicians. Although my solo project expresses another side of me, it is also an extension of Third World’s music.”

In 2011 Rugs digitally released three tracks from “TIME”: “Love Is Blind” produced by “the Riddim twins” Sly & Robbie details the pitfalls of loving blindly, set against a classic “Tune In” one-drop rhythm; the beautiful lover’s rock tune “Just Can’t Deny”, produced by renown saxophonist Dean Fraser and “Kurfew”, which addresses the three-day incursion into Kingston’s Tivoli Gardens community in pursuit of drug lord Christopher “Dudus” Coke in 2010; on behalf of the 80 people who lost their lives in Tivoli, Rugs offers a fervent plea for justice: “what about our rights, what about the principle, who is going to help those caught in the middle?” Coproduced by songwriter/producer Mikey Bennett of Grafton Studios and Rugs. “I wanted to create some kind of excitement and test some of the songs before I released the album,” says Rugs, “and the messages I get on Facebook and from friends, fans & family indicates that people can’t wait for the album and that these songs have generated some kind of vibe.”
