The brainchild of brothers Ron and Vaughn Benjamin, Midnite formed in the Virgin Islands island of St. Croix in 1989. The quintet members have included Dion Hopkins (drums), Joe Straws (bass), Trippa (guitar), Ron (keyboards), and Vaughn (lead vocals). They're popular in St. Croix, St. Thomas, Puerto Rico, and the East Coast of the States, where they have gigged for a number of years. A well-received three-week South Africa engagement represents their longest trek to date. Other than the Benjamins, the members' identities are a comparative mystery: Straws (aka Big Bass) has been around for many years, but Hopkins, acclaimed for his one-drop foundation, and Trippa, for his tight backbeat skank, are relative newcomers; Vaughn has been the main songwriter, with Ron serving as the musical director. Steel Pulse, Barrington Levy, Hugh Masekela, and Gladys Knight & the Pips are among the artists Midnite have shared the stage with at various concerts. Their popularity extends to college campuses, including Rutgers, Temple, Johnson C. Smith, Clark-Atlanta University, and many more. Albums like Ras Mek Peace (1999), Vijan (2003), and Treasure (2011) represent their political bent and their dancehall flavor. ~ Andrew Hamilton, Rovi
Amen segeson. i love midnite and thier passion. they inspire me to create roots reggae music that will one day give thanks and praise to the true and real king jesus christ the most high who live and reigns forever. JAH!!! christ the most high!!!! midnite is amazing and thier quest for spirituality is a true one. i pray they open thier eyes to the real lion of the tribe of judah. the seed of david. JESUS!
Midnite - i like you guys but you're worshiping a false god Sellasie of Ethiopia. Jesus Christ is the King Of Kings and the Lord of Lords PERIOD!!!!!! HE IS GOD. I suggest you pray about it and start changing the lyrics starting with the lyrics in "PROPAGANDA!!! Listen guys, Haille Selassie himself said it - he is mortal.Follow his teachings and embrace our GOD JESUS CHRIST!! JUDGEMENT DAY IS COMING GUYS. THINK THINK THINK...This message is for all the Rastafarians all over the world.
I would love to see Midnite in more southern states where people are just not exposed to even have the idea that this type of positive music exist. Specifically, Mississippi! Jackson Mississippi !!!!!
heree in the salty d (san diego) vibes get hostile but when the vibrations of bands like midnite play ina the yard ina the streets all the vibes turn possitive . the fufillment of the prophecy is in the air is in the atmosphere errtime midnite tunes play chek the lyrics also chek the messege the angel of revelations brings ya dig chek up ourselfs and liv eup bless up the atmosphere we live in
Midnite is a very important band in these times...............possibly the most important reggae band right now. They put out new music all the time ,.......................amazing.
good to see the virgin islands reggae getting some respect. midnites album KAYAMAGAN is one the greatest reggae albums never heard. Also, check out Inner Visions from St. John virgin islands. Their album FRONTLINE is also an amazing representation of what is going on in the virgin islands.
