PRODUCER Rootz Radicals

EXPLICIT LYRICS No GENRE Reggae

It’s the debut album of a German band, the likes of which hasn’t been seen for a long time. Rootz Radicals couldn’t have wished for more international support for their first studio album. In the past, the band had extensively explored the world of reggae – from Jamaica to Africa and the USA – but the recently released powerful reggae album is meant to surpass it all. The wait for what might be the longest-awaited reggae album by a German band with international content has paid off, especially considering the lineup of the 10- song milestone.
None other than Gentleman honors Brighter Days Ahead, shaking hands with frontman Uno Jahma on the cover of the accompanying album single. Queen Omega, the queen of roots reggae, appears alongside Chris and Uno Jahma in the meaningful song “Education Free,”. The collaboration forms a loud cry for educational freedom while consciously relying on provocation, sensitivity, and first-hand experiences. Also making waves on Together As One is Rebellion The Recaller from Gambia, who accompanies singer Uno Jahma on Kingston Elite, a dark and sobering journey into the everyday lives of many youths in the cities of the world, marked by violence and exclusion, absolutely stimulating and gripping.
The title track opens the album with grandeur and pathos. Deep double basses create a deep blue sound ocean. Immersing into this, a rock-rooted reggae anthem emerges, a testament to the sheer force behind the album’s title. Rootz Radicals couldn’t have crafted a better monument to the message of unity and peace in the world. For anyone thinking Rootz Radicals is a rocky reggae band as they maybe found in the USA, they would be mistaken. As recently noted in Riddim Magazine, with Rootz Radicals, “it’s less about correctly implementing old sounds and more about making the values of the Old School

usable for the present” (Riddim 4/23). It can hardly get more modern and rootsy simultaneously, than on songs like “Identity feat. Headcornerstone” or on the colorful “Mango Juice,” where Rootz Radicals present the art of sound and language painting in the finest reggae and rocksteady style of the 21st century.
Since December 8th, all 10 songs from Together As One, Rootz Radicals’ debut album, are available everywhere in digital music stores. Even those who think they can’t relate to reggae will discover an enrichment for their music collection in this album, not to mention those who love reggae.
