Jahfe is here to let the world know that contrary to popular beliefs Jah is real and His word shall come to pass. Representing the power of the youth and the wisdom of roots culture, the music of Jahfe not only reflects the city’s diverse music scene but also the true ability of conscious music to connect to people of all backgrounds.
