Producing hits such as No No No, The Tide Is High and By The Rivers of Babylon, rocksteady propelled Jamaica to the top of the world.

Beginning this September Emirates will become the first airline to serve Los Angeles (LAX) non-stop from the Middle Eastern or Gulf region when it launches daily flights.
Flight EK215 will be non-stop Dubai-Los Angeles 15 hours 55 mins and Los Angeles-Dubai 16 hr 35 min making it the longest flight in the Emirates Network flying over Japan and the Pacific rather than northern Europe and the Pole. This is great news for the west coast making travel much faster to and from the Gulf, Middle East and Indian subcontinent.
