We first heard of Melodyman when he sang as a guest artist on Ras Indio’s Belizean Girls. Four years in the making, Melodyman Escobar has finally finished recording his debut album called Belizean Artists. The album was released on the fourteenth and is available in stores countrywide. Melodyman dropped by our studio on Friday and told us why it is the time for Belizean Artists.
