"It feels great to know that World Peace has built up this kind of momentum since it is the kind of conscious song that the world needs right now. World Peace might sound like a pipe dream, but it is something that we should all aspire towards. The song itself,World Peace, is still getting massive rotation. people are loving it because the World Peace concept is appealing to every nation and every religion," Nature said in a release.

The single, produced on the Down Sound Records imprint, has also popped up on reggae charts in Kenya, Australia, and France. The video for the single peaked at #3 on the CVM Hitlist charts. It also held thepole position of the HYPE TV Top 20 charts for three weeks.

"Down Sound and Josef Bogdanovich have the capabilities and resources to manage artistes. Things are moving in the direction I've always wanted to go," he said.

"I am getting a lot of feedback on Twitter and Facebook and the bookings are coming in to Down Sound. I did a lot of shows over the summer, but now it appears that Europe is showing a keen interest, so I am expecting great things in the future," Nature said.
