about tabou1

3 decades of excellence

Created 27 years ago, TABOU1 specializes in Jamaican music. Our motto and mission statement is "Roots With Quality" and we are known for releasing the best of reggae music with legendary artists such as Sly & Robbie (Sly Dunbar and Robbie’s estate are TABOU1 shareholders alongside TABOU1's employees), Bitty McLean, U Roy, Third World and many others.

we provide upscale music nfts

Leveraging the transformative possibilities of the blockchain technology, TABOU1 sells curated, high quality and upscale music. By curating the content, we offer a safer shopping experience for buyers while protecting the artists we work with.

the ultimate music experience:
DIGITAL X PHYSICAL collectibles

TABOU1 delivers an exclusive, top of the line experience to a discerning public in both Digital AND Physical formats. Digital meets physical… What more could one ask for?

we give back to you

When you buy an NFT, collect free bonus songs to complete a compilation.
When you complete a compilation, you receive additional, previously unreleased songs.
When you complete all 5 compilations, you will receive an exclusive vinyl record.

Ownership and Freedom

Like their physical twins, NFT are yours and you are free to resell them at any time on any secondary marketplace, while helping artists generate secondary royalties.

we create value for artists

Our artists receive a bigger slice of the pie than from music streaming services. We pay royalties on secondary sales, unlike other platforms.

we aim for Net zero

Last but not least, we aim to minimize and compensate our carbon footprint:

TABOU1’s NFT are stored on the Polygon blockchain, which offers a more advanced and environmentally sustainable alternative. We are working with Buenos Aires-based Hernan Sforzini, who has launched Planta & Canta to plants trees and help the planet breathe again, and with the ACRE Reforestation project in Myanmar: we will donate a portion of our revenues to Planta & Canta and to ACRE Myanmar.

Forward Ever Backward Never!

Now isn’t all of that useful? And practical? And fun?

Come join the TABOU1 community and help us grow it so artists can benefit, so the environment can benefit and so you can have a nice and fun experience all the while.
