Firebrand Jamaican entertainer and social activist, Queen Ifrica, is set to break new ground with the release of her latest album, Climb.

Queen Ifrica has been one of Reggae music’s leading voices against sexual abuse of minors and other social injustices long before it regained popularity with the younger generation of Reggae practitioners and her latest work is a continuation of that trend.

The award-winning entertainer, who is affectionately called "Fyah Muma," has used her talent to speak to a variety of issues.

On one track she speaks to a mother's concerns for the family: while on others she addresses communication, peace, justice, truth and love.

She also advocates for global change on the album and rallies the effervescent  Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley on the opening hip-hop tinged track "Truevosation."

The album also covers the subjects of police brutality in the black community and on the track Black Woman she implores young ladies to know their worth and not be swayed by objectifying trends in popular culture.

The album is distributed by VP records and is available through the downloadable format and on record store shelves.
