From Jamaica, this can only be described as doomsday gospel reggae with powerful performances and strong prophetic spiritual content. Presented by a variety of unknown singers, rappers and preachers, this is an excellent mixture of great beats, raw dancehall and fine rapping and singing. It may be a little ragged around the edges production wise but there's much to enjoy. Highlights include "None Shall Escape Judgement" which features some great singing from Marie Jackson and Gavin Brown's "Peace" where he gets in the flow. "Running But Yu Just Can't Hide" is the perfect blend between St Matthew's rapping and Zela Mac's sung hook. Ultimately, if you're looking for spiritually satisfying reggae, this will do the trick.
