Press release

Januuary 31, 2025 For Immediate Release Media Contact: R.J. Johnson djrj@music4lifemedia.com 512 297 3575 PHILLIPIDON RELEASES A NEW ROOTS REGGAE SINGLE. (AUSTIN, TEXAS - JANUARY 31, 2025; source: Music For Life) - Austin-based record label, Music For Life along with Phillipidon release a new single: Serious Time.

Phillipidon had this to say about the song: “We’re living in a pivotal time of major conflicts, many of which are novel, and also on levels that we’ve never witnessed before. We have the potential to move humankind forward into a world of true abundance, without the endless, wasteful wars we continue to witness.

Serious Time was written to remind us that more love, harmony, truth and dignity are essential to overcome the schisms we encounter on a daily basis.” RJ Johnson adds: “After this crazy election we just went through, we can see how many are still stuck in the fight mode that divides us and that our work is not done.” ABOUT PHILLIPIDON: Philip White aka Phillipidon was born in Kingston, Jamaica.

He is known for his gravelly-gruff voice, interlacing a few iconoclastic interjections, and weaving wanton mayhem amongst audiences with his impromptu outbursts during live performances. When he is not doing music, he is a college professor teaching anatomy, biology, and physiology at Houston Community College.
