"Life is a Stage" is the twenty-second, official release from the renaissance man of reggae music, Michael ‘Mikey Dread’ Campbell. The album absorbs all of the musicianship and energy from those arenas and moulds them into what can be best described as a connoisseur’s release. Each of the fifteen tracks on ‘Life is a Stage’ have been created by names that are pillars in the foundation of reggae music and ones most likely to be inducted in a reggae ‘Hall of Fame’.Musicians like Sly Dunbar, Fully Fullwood, Tony Chin, Flabba Holt, Style Scott, Glen Browne,Dalton Browne, ‘Sticky’ Thompson, Deadley Headley, Bongo Herman and Robbie Lynn are all featured on  "Life Is a Stage", keeping in mind that some of these same musicians combined their talents on Mikey’s world renown 1979 classic album ‘World War III’. With this release, Mikey has come full circle, assembling those same “founding father’s of reggae” once again to provide us with another, authentic reggae gem. Mikey incorporates a multitude of themes on ‘Life is a Stage’ from rasta love on “Dread next Door”, black consciousness on “Point of View” to the social ill’s of human “Barcoding” and “Stem Cells”.  The addition of back up vocalists ‘Brady’ Ellendre Walters, ‘Grace’ Sonia Spence and Chantelle Ernandez provide perfect harmony alongside Mikey’s natural voice and are effective throughout."i'm Not The Kind" was one of the last songs recorded by Mikey Dread.
