*International Reggae Star Buju Banton's Blazing "Magic City" Video Blows Up On World Wide Web

Gargamel Music, Inc. has announced that the breathtaking new video for “Magic City,” the lead single from Buju Banton’s highly anticipated album “Rasta Got Soul,” has been added into online rotation at AOLMUSIC.COM, MTV.COM, LAUNCH.COM and BLASTRO.COM, making the fervently sought-after clip available for immediate viewing by Buju’s fans in Africa, Asia, Europe and other parts of the Caribbean.

“I am extremely thankful to have such prestigious media outlets supporting me on my independent musical trod,” says Gargamel Music, Inc. CEO and artist, Buju Banton a.k.a. Gargamel. “It means so much to be able to deliver Jah works to my fans around the world.”

The “Magic City” 7” was released last month on Gargamel Music, Inc. (distributed by Fat Beats - www.fatbeats.com) and has received rave reviews from The Source and The Beat, which gave the single 5 out of 5 stars. The UK’s Touch magazine also gave the song 5 stars and called Buju’s Rasta Got Soul “the most exciting and enticing project in years.”

Meanwhile, the Banton has a steady slew of hits charting in Jamaica, Miami and New York, including “Haffi Get A Beating” featuring the legendary, late Peter Tosh and “Too Bloody” featuring singer Anthony Cruz. Both songs will be on the new album, due later on this year.
