Roots Rebel Riddim – Roots Rebel Sound

Roots Rebel Riddim (2015) comes from Roots Rebel Sound and gathers a strong lineup of 16 tracks across 18 artists, with a mix of singers and deejays that keeps the rhythm moving in different directions. Al Pancho’s Nah Gwah Jail Tonight, Suga Banton’s Legalize The Herb, and Sheik and Papa Sbadi’s Hold On are among the better-known cuts, while Don Tippa, Kashu, Star Khaliba, and Fyah Roiall and Jah Izrehl add more variety to the set. Released on February 12, 2015, the project leans into conscious reggae with a rootsy feel and a broad vocal selection, and the Roots Rebel Sound production credit ties the whole compilation together with a clear underground dancehall-reggae edge.
