There is no debate: Buju Banton is the world’s greatest reggae artist to occupy planet earth. The man born out of the Salt Lane slums of Kingston as Mark Anthony Myrie is a dancehall icon, Grammy winner, revolutionary, teacher, as well as breaker of records set by the honorable Bob Marley and mental chains worn by the misinformed.

For over thirty years, the author of Caribbean classics like “Champion” and “Love Me Brownin” has collaborated with fellow legends from Beres Hammond to Pharrell Williams to the late Heavy D and served food in the form of eleven studio albums which share the same vertebrae: Love is both the standard and solution. For this very reason, Buju is deploying his latest and twelfth studio album Born For Greatness to lead a renaissance of Roots Rock Reggae, the Ethiopia to Jamaica protest music planted in humanity, love and spirituality. With today’s dancehall scene primarily relegated to young street life, whom better to return the world to the musical essence of gold, green and black?

The bar is immediately raised on the lead single “High Life” on which Buju, his production co-pilot Jermaine “J’ August” Reid and California King Snoop craft a sticky, yet educational ode to music lover’s favorite herb. Awareness continues on the follow up “Coconut Water,” a metaphoric cautionary track with enough bump to keep rude bwoy knees and Red Stripes raised high.
