Akae Beka

Reggae Band Continuing the Legacy of Midnite

Akae Beka was the brainchild of Vaughn Benjamin, who was previously the lead vocalist and co-founder of the renowned reggae band Midnite. After forming in 2015, Akae Beka continued the profound lyrical and musical tradition that Midnite was known for, deeply rooted in Rastafarian beliefs and featuring a spiritually charged style of reggae music. Vaughn Benjamin's prolific songwriting and distinctive voice made Akae Beka resonate with fans of Midnite and attracted new listeners seeking music with a message. The band's name is derived from the Book of Enoch and reflects Benjamin's deep spiritual convictions. Throughout his career, both with Midnite and Akae Beka, Vaughn Benjamin released a staggering number of albums, contributing to his reputation as a legendary figure in the reggae community. His passing in November 2019 marked the end of an era for Akae Beka, but his music continues to inspire and influence.
