The daughter of legendary Rock Steady icon Derrick Morgan, Queen Ifrica is today’s Sunday Meditation. Being raised in a Reggae family has it’s benefits, and you can hear the tradition in the songs she sings. When she first burst on the scene back in 98, she was known as a gifted performer. When she took over the airwaves in 07 with “Below the Waist”, people began to take note of her ability as a recording artist as well. Her follow ups “Daddy” and “Nah Rub” both hit the radio and the dancehalls with a fury. Soon she was known as the Fyah Muma, and the people were crowning her as the new queen.

The best thing about Queen Ifrica is her ability to talk about things that really impact her listeners. She doesn’t shy away from topics that might offend someone. But you don’t get the impression that she is doing it for shock value, but rather that she just feels obligated to speak upon issues she believes in. So while you listen to her music, remember that she made it to uplift, not to pull down, your spirit and your heart.
