Meet Al Zurii: A Cultural Fusion of Reggae Roots and Melodic Hip-Hop

Coming from a Caribbean household, Al Zurii is an artist whose sound is as rich as his roots. Deeply influenced by reggae legends like Bob Marley, Lucky Dube, Beres Hammond, and Jah Cure, he carries the essence of soulful storytelling and unity through music. These icons laid the foundation, but it was the wave of emotionally expressive, melodic hip-hop that sparked his evolution into a genre-blending force. The result? A sound grounded in culture yet always pushing forward—raw, rhythmic, and real.

His debut album Get It Now marked a full-circle moment, dropping on his birthday and stamping his official arrival on the scene. Soon after, he made waves performing at the legendary SOBs—a true rite of passage for any emerging artist coming out of New York. Most recently, his single “Bestfrann” has been turning heads and racking up streams. It's a vibey, late-night anthem packed with energy and unforgettable one-liners. As he puts it, “‘You wit your bestfriend, she rolling up’ says it all.” It’s a blurry, euphoric memory turned into a track—perfect for wild nights and loud speakers.

With his distinctive voice and relentless drive, Al Zurii sets himself apart in a crowded industry. “Once we figure out who we are and what our strongest qualities are, we should utilize that to be in a space unimaginable,” he says—and his music proves he’s doing just that.

Fans can expect more visuals, more music, and exclusive merch drops throughout the rest of 2025. And for those who’ve been rocking with him from the beginning, he’s not forgetting: “Shout-out to my fans. They always support—thank you for believing in me!”

Whether you’re drawn in by his lyrical finesse or his genre-bending sound, one thing is clear: Al Zurii is on a journey worth following. Hit play now and watch the story unfold
