  • Simply Tarrus


    At BACKAYARD, we are not ones to say that ‘we told you so’ but seeing the acclaim that Tarrus Riley has received from and since the release of his sophomore album Parables, we can’t help but remind you that back in the issue 6, you know the Buju Banton cover, we proclaimed that Tarrus was an artiste to watch and that his album Parables was a collector’s item for anyone who loves reggae music. Well with that being said, Tarrus has used the success of that album and other subsequent single releases to propel himself into the Jamaican consciousness.

    So much so that Tarrus is now looked upon as the standard bearer for reggae music by the public. It is with that knowledge, we decided to catch up with Tarrus and discuss his life and where he sees himself now as an artiste.
