DANCEHALL

Alkaline (Earlan Bartley) stands at the forefront of contemporary dancehall as one of the genre’s most influential and controversial voices. Known for his dark, edgy style and fearless innovation, Alkaline has redefined the boundaries of modern Jamaican music—bringing a bold, unapologetic sound to a global audience.

​

Bursting onto the scene with early hits like “Move Mountains,” “Champion Boy,” and “Things Mi Love,” Alkaline quickly amassed a loyal fanbase and solidified his place among dancehall’s elite. His debut album “New Level Unlocked” became the first dancehall project in five years to top the Billboard Reggae Albums chart—marking a historic moment for the genre.

​

With a signature blend of hardcore lyricism, melodic hooks, and trap-influenced production, Alkaline’s catalog continues to grow with chart-topping singles like “Ocean Wave,” “After All,” “Juggernaut,” and “Cree.” His mysterious persona and refusal to conform to industry norms have only fueled his mystique and influence, earning him comparisons to icons like Vybz Kartel while carving his own unique lane.

​

From sold-out arenas in the Caribbean and North America to massive streaming numbers across digital platforms, Alkaline’s reach spans continents and cultures. He’s a leader of dancehall’s new school, a symbol of self-made success, and a fearless creative force.
