Recording artiste Delly Ranx is set todrop his latest album 'The Next Chapter' on July 10, 2012.

The artiste, who has already released three other albums, said that, with the state of music right now, he found it worthwhile to release a reggae album.

"It was worthwhile for me to release a reggae album to bridge the gap between the younger folks and the elders so that people can appreciate reggae again," Delly Ranx told THE STAR.

Delly Ranx has been working on the album for the last three years and will release it under his Pure Music Productions label.

The Next Chapter features collaborations with veterans in the music business, as well as up-and-coming artistes.

"I collaborated with Bunny Rugs from Third World on a song called Life After Lifetime. I also have a collab with Buju Banton called Thunder Roll. My youngest daughter Gabrielle Foster also collaborated with me on a song called Baby Cry and I did a song called One a Way Soldier (remix) with an artiste called Chali2na," Delly Ranx said.

The artiste says he has been busy producing and recording great songs as well as performing all over the world.

"The Next Chapter will be available worldwide digitally, while fans who are interested in obtaining a hard copy of the album can log on to www.dellyranx.com to place orders," he said.
