[Machine Translation] A new page in the history of the greatest female singer in the history of Caribbean music... Born and raised in West Kingston on November 23, 1949, Marcia Lynes Griffiths was an outstanding vocalist at a young age, a talent that was stolen from the pioneers of Jamaican music such as Byron Lee and Clement Sir Coxsondod of Studio One. She has been in the music business since the early 1960s, and has remained at the top of the scene for half a century. She has been in the music business since the early 60's and has remained at the top of the scene for half a century now, and is truly the Queen of Reggae. After singing with Bob Marley & The Wailers as a chorus member of I Three, she resumed her solo career. In the 90's, the golden age of dancehall reggae, she formed a powerful alliance with the prestigious Penthouse Records and had a string of hit songs on the label. Marsha and Pento's songs are still loved by reggae freaks as timeless classics that will never fade away. From calypso to rock steady, roots reggae to modern dancehall reggae, Marcia Griffiths is the longest-serving, longest-selling, smartest, most loving, most respected and greatest first lady in the history of Jamaica's music industry. Despite being born in a ghetto neighborhood of poverty, Marcia's music has brought her success, wealth, and fame, but she has also funded music scholarships at Edna Manley College, hosted & performed at annual national and international charity events, and in 2004, established the Marcia Griffith Foundation to provide support and donations to women, poor children, and seniors. In 2004, she established the Marcia Griffiths Foundation, which supports and donates to women, poor children, and the elderly. The greatest Caribbean music queen of all time is making history with the release of her new album, "The Queen of the Caribbean," produced by Penthouse Records and led by Donovan Jermaine, who built a thriving empire in the golden age of Caribbean music in the 1990s. The first full-length album in six years, produced by Penthouse Records and led by Donovan Jermaine, the man who built a major empire during the golden era of the 1990s, is finally complete. The true friends who gathered for her, who have contributed and influenced the scene in a significant way, include Buju Banton, Beres Hammond, Daville, Gregory Isaacs, Freddie McGregor, John Holt, Sanchez, Queen Ifrica, and many others who are well-known in the history of reggae music.
