Acclaimed producer, song-writer and artiste Ricky Blaze has released a new album titled Conquer the Moment.

The album features Grammy-award winner Shaggy, reggae star Gyptian, Kranium, Tifa, Future Fambo, Blak Ryno and esteemed saxophonist Dean Fraser.

Ricky Blaze, who produced Gyptian's Billboard chart-topping single, Hold You, which featured Nicki Minaj, says he has a responsibility to create great music.

"I just feel like as the youths who represent our culture in these days, we should be great and give our all to make great music and moments that can live with people forever," he said.

Known for his fusion of Jamaican music with hip hop and R&B, Blaze has worked with some of the biggest names in music. The album features 10 tracks and can be previewed on his personal FME Recordings SoundCloud page.

The producer/artiste says the production process was smooth.

"To be both the artiste and producer comes natsural; it's just about the creative process and how the music is arranged that makes the cake. As long as the songs have the vibe they're supposed to have, it doesn't matter whether I'm the artiste." he said.

Ricky Blaze is based in the United States.
