June’s calendar is a double showcase—Caribbean-American Heritage Month and Black Music Month—yet one voice is managing to cut through both celebrations: Lady Da Flame. The Washington, DC-bred Jamaican-American vocalist (Marjorie Reid) has propelled her newest single “You Can Do It,” crafted by Righteous Corner Productions, onto reggae charts in New York and Florida while collecting heavy-rotation badges from regional radio.
Rather than chasing trends, Lady Da Flame designs what she calls “long-life anthems—songs that push listeners forward even on their worst days.” That philosophy underpins her growing catalogue:
- “Just Another Day,” cut on the Consequence Riddim (CD Master/Inna Mi House Music), extends the same uplift with a rootsy pulse.
- “Second Time,” a melodic rebuttal to Khago’s “2 Time,” demonstrates her knack for conversational storytelling.
- “God Answers Prayers” shattered the billion-stream mark across digital platforms, and devotional follow-up “Goodness of God” is accelerating weekly plays.
- Multiple tracks have breached the playlist walls of New York’s influential Hot 97, a coveted stamp for any reggae act.
From intimate DC studio sessions to booming Caribbean summer parties, Lady Da Flame’s sonic optimism is finding fresh real estate in playlists worldwide—just in time for a month that salutes both heritage and the enduring power of Black music.
